Neighborhood meetings were held to determine interest. It was found <br />that the residents of Heritage Drive were not interested in sewer at that time. The <br />Shoreline Drive residents are ready to move forward as they have one failing system and <br />one system near failure. Moorse said the Shoreline Drive area can be served <br />independently from Heritage Drive. The Heritage Drive homeowners association was <br />recently recontacted to determine interest in sewer. There are now seven property <br />owTiers in favor of sewer and seven opposed. Moorse indicated that four properties have <br />conforming systems and one has a failing system. <br />Jabbour asked if the other three residents are aware of the pros and cons to sewering at <br />this time. Moorse said they were informed of this at the neighborhood meetings that <br />were held 2-3 years ago.
