MINUTES OF THE CONTINUATION OF THE STUBBS BAY ASSESSMENT HEARING <br />HELD BY THE'ORONO COUNCIL ON <br />HELD MAY 18, 1992 <br />DeMeo said he has a non - conforming system, but it will only cost <br />a couple hundred dollars to bring it into conformance. He asked <br />if that would fall under the 5 year hookup scenario. <br />Gaffron stated that would have to be a policy decision whether or <br />not the Council would allow updates to the current,septic system <br />to allow additional usage of that system. <br />Jabbour felt that if the property doesn't need sewer, the issue <br />should not be pushed. <br />Mike McLaughlin, 180 Leaf Street, asked what selling his home had <br />to do with the quality of the septic system. He said he has a large <br />lot and does not need the sewer. He explained that he built the <br />house 5 years ago and was told at that time that sewer would not <br />be available to that property. <br />Bob Minkemna 3200 Bayside Road, felt that the quarterly service <br />charge to residents not hooked up is ridiculous. <br />Linda Whitman said that the I i fe of a septic system is based in <br />part on the usage of the residents and maintenance. She would <br />prefer the Council establish a deadline for hookup when the system <br />fai Is. <br />Gaffron asked if properties using holding tanks would be required <br />to hookup immediately. <br />Jabbour said they should be required to hookup right away. Mayor <br />Peterson agreed. <br />Gaffron said the reason for suggesting that properties be required <br />to hookup upon a sale was because many parcels in this area are <br />sold on a Contract for Deed which do not involve a mortgage <br />company. <br />Knight asked what date is the deadline based upon. <br />Butler informed him that it is taken from the date of final <br />completion of the project. <br />It was moved by Mayor Peterson, seconded by Butler, to determine <br />that upon completion of the project, all parcels with a failing <br />system shall connect immediately and all parcels determined to have <br />a non - conforming system including a system too close to a creek or <br />lake shall connect within 16 months, and ail other parcels are <br />7 <br />
