I. Introduction <br />City staff has requested this report to determine the feasibility of constructing sanitary sewer <br />inqrrovements for the Homestead Road area, as shown on Figure 1. A portion of the nei^borfaood is <br />located within the shoreland area making it difficult for some property owners to meet the 3-foot <br />separation between the seasonal water table and their septic system. <br />The City of Orono received a signed petition fiom five of the seven property owners on Homestead <br />Road requesting sanitary sewer. Six of the seven properties have existing homes while one property <br />is currently undeveloped. Only one of the six existing homes has a conforming septic system, the <br />remaining five homes have non-conforming systems. In most cases lot size, topography and <br />proximity to lakeshore has limited the ability to find replacement septic sites. <br />This report describes the sanitary improvements required to completely serve the Homestead Road <br />nei^boihood. The proposed sanitary sewer improvements are presented on Figure 2. The costs of <br />the proposed improvements are presented in the appendices and a cost summary is presented in the <br />Cost Analysis section. <br />Homestead Road Sanitary Sewer Improvements
