Reso#95-03 and Reso #96-03 4.10 Approval of Amendment#1 to the Purissima Sewer Lift Station Agreement Duffy Price, Anacapa Drive, explained that she had requested that this item be removed from the Consent Calendar for the purposes of discussion by Council due to the impact on her property. The sewer project has a raised manhole in close proximity to her residence, and they have been bothered by the smell of gasses leaking from the area. The City Engineer has attempted to address the problem by sealing the manhole, but this has not resolved the issue. Price is concerned that adding additional users to the facility will increase the problem. John Harpotlian, Anacapa Drive, stated that he has spoken with Bruce Askari, the developer of the Purissima Sewer project. Askari had voiced his opinion that the problem is due to the lack of maintenance by the Town. The station should be regularly cleaned and cleared or it does not vent properly. Harpootlian hoped that Council would consider reviewing this project before approving the list of additional users. • 5 City Council Meeting Minutes December 4,2003
