SUBJECT:Acceptance of Sanitary Sewer Lift Station in Arbor Estates
INTRODUCTION
The enclosed material provides for City Council acceptance of the sanitary sewer lift
station that the developer, Kivlahan Farms, L.LC., has recently completed in Arbor
Estates.
BACKGROUND
As a condition of subdivision plat approval through Resolution No. 168-02, the
developer of Arbor Estates was required to install certain improvements including a
sanitary sewer lift station, and to dedicate the improvements to the City upon
completion. The developer of Arbor Estates, Kivlahan Farms, L.L.C., has recently
completed the lift station and has formally requested the City's acceptance of the lift
station that has been installed. The remaining improvements for the subdivision will be
accepted after completion and inspection.
DISCUSSION
The Subdivision Ordinance requires that upon completion of all the required public
improvements, the subdivider shall notify the City in writing of the completion of the
improvements, requesting that the City either approve or reject the acceptance of the
improvements, together with a statement of reasons for any rejection.
On January 21, 2003, Buesing and Associates, on behalf of Kivlahan Farms, L.L.C.,
requested City's acceptance of the sanitary sewer lift station in Arbor Estates. Upon
inspection by the City, it has been determined that the sanitary sewer lift station
required by Resolution No. 168-02 has been completed in accordance with plans
approved by the City Council and in conformance with City specifications.
RECOMMENDATION
I would, therefore, recommend that the City Council accept the sanitary sewer lift
station. Maintenance of said improvements shall be the responsibility of the contractor,
Connolly Construction, and the owner, Kivlahan Farms, L.LC., for a period of two years
from the date of acceptance by the City Council.
ACTION TO BE TAKEN
The City Council is requested to adopt the attached resolution accepting the sanitary
sewer lift station.

Re: Arbor Estates Lift Station
Dear Mike:
This letter is being prepared on behalf of John & Doris Kivlahan, owners of the Arbor Estates Subdivision.
They request final acceptance by the City of Dubuque for 100% completion of the new lift station that has
been installed as a part of the project development in the subdivision per the lift station plans.
Paul Horsfall of the City and others from the Wastewater Treatment Operations were present at the site on
December 10th for the final inspection to view the operation and successful start-up of the equipment. By
approving this unit, the City operations personnel can get the station integrated into their normal operations
and it is the desire and wishes of the subdivision owners that this be accomplished at this appropriate time.
The subdivision where this lift station is located is further described as:
LOTS 1 THRU 8, INCLUSIVE, & LOT A OF BLOCK 1, BLOCK 2, BLOCK 3, LOTS 1 THRU 13, INCLUSIVE, OF
BLOCK 4, LOTS 1 THRU 11, INCLUSIVE, OF BLOCK 5, LOTS 11 & 12 OF BLOCK 6, LOTS 1 & 2 OF BLOCK 7,
