Box 66 Orono, MN 55356 Crystal Bay, MN 55323-0066 October 21.2003 Dear�'ei�hborhood Residents; � pressure se�i-er system is currently beina installed in your neighborhood. This sewer system is a�•ailable for hookup by neiQhborhood residents on a voluntary basis at this time. You can continue to use your e�cisting septic system until the s�-�m fails or is required to be replaced because of it's nonconformina status. The present deadline tor the replacement of non conforming septic systems is 2010. A conforming septic system can continue to be used until it either fails or is rendered nonconformin� by future septic reaulations. The se�ti-er connection fee is cunently 58,�00 and will be adjusted for inflation on an annual basis. This connection fee can either be paid before connection to the sewer system or be assessed over a 1�-�-ear time period at a 6.2�%annual interest rate. A signed assessment waiver will be required if �-ou request to be assessed for the connection fee. In addition to the connection fee,there is a on:rime SAC fee of$1,27�. This SAC fee increases on an annual basis and is payment for the additional costs of the future downstream capacity in the �ietropolitan Council Sewer System. This pressure sewer system requires that each property owner install and maintain their own indi�-idual grinder pump station. A"proaressi�-e cavity"grinder pump will be required,and the City needs to approve the pump that will be install� to ensure compatibilit5�with the sewer system. The estimated property owner costs for the grindzr pump station, service connection, and septic tank abandonment can range from�7,000 to 512,000 depending on the len�th of the service connection required. The City's current flat rate user ch:rIIe for residential sew-er is approximately $90.00 per quarter. PaQe 1 Telephone(9�2)2-�9-4600 • Fax(952)249-4616 ��.ci.orono.mn.us
