Box 66 <br /> �- � Orono, MN 55356 Crystal Bay, MN 55323-0066 <br /> October 21, 2003 <br /> Dear Neighborhood Residents; <br /> A pressure sewer system is cunently bein� installed in ��our neighborhood. This sewer system is <br /> available for hookup by neighborhood residents on a�-oluntary basis at this time. You can continue <br /> to use your existing septic system until the system fails or i�required to be replaced because of it's <br /> nonconforming status. The present deadline for the replaczment of non conformin� septic systems <br /> is 2010. A conforming septic system can continue to be used until it either fails or is rendered <br /> nonconforming by future septic regulations. <br /> The sewer connection fee is currentiv $6,500 and w-ill be a�justed for inflation on an annual basis. <br /> This connection fee can either be paid before connection to the sewer system or be assessed over a <br /> 15-year time period at a 6.25% annual interest rate. A signed assessment waiver«zll be required if <br /> you request to be assessed for the connection fee. <br /> In addition to the connection fee,there is a one time SAC fee of$1,275. This SAC fee increases on <br /> an annual basis and is payment for the additional costs of the future downstream capacity in the <br /> Metropolitan Council Sewer System. <br /> This pressure sewer system requires that each propem� owner install and maintain their own <br /> individual grinder pump station. A"progressive cavitv"grinder pump will be required,and the City <br /> needs to approve the pump that will be installed to ensure compatibility with the se«-er system. The <br /> estimated property owner costs for the grinder pump station, service connection, and septic tank <br /> abandonment can range from $7,000 to $12,000 dependinQ on the length of the service connection <br /> required. The City's current flat rate user charge for residential sewer is approYimately $90.00 per <br /> quarter. <br /> Page 1 <br /> Telephone(952)249-4600 • Fax(952)249-4616 <br /> www.ci.orono.mn.us <br />
