Some�will have no alternate sites for septic system replacement V <br /> if/when the time comes. This area is primarily 2-acre lots(some smaller,some larger) and was not included in our 2008- <br /> 2030 Comp Plan MUSA update. My assumption is that to bring sewer to this area will require it be incorporated into the <br /> MUSA. � <br /> We are meeting with a neighborhood representative on Wednesday to discuss what information we need before the <br /> City considers a sewer project for this neighborhood. I have one question for you at this time: Are the "Guidelines for <br /> Evaluating P/an Amendments Proposing Changes to MUSA Timing Staqing"�os amended in 2007 siill in effect? Under <br /> those guidelines, areas develope'd priorto.1985 with failing septic systems and no alternate septic sites will not be <br /> counted towards our density calculation... <br /> � Looking forward to your timely reply. <br /> .
