Mrs. Turek,
Individuals or governments typically pay to acquire easements.
The City of Winona paid for several easements on this project. The cost
of the WG&D easement per square foot was much much less than the
neighboring townhouse association.
No "known" conspiracy.

I will ask again, how does this apply to the Country Club which is not
being
charged anything? Linda your cousin may want to ask this question. Why
is one
person being treated differently than another. Why isn't the Country
Club
paying for hook up, and your cousin must? When will the city play by
the rules
and answer to the people that pay their wages? Janice
