June 30, 1997 <br /> Stephen Weckman <br /> City of Orono <br /> P. O. Box 66 <br /> Crystal Bay, MN 55323-0066 <br /> Dear Mr. Weckman: <br /> I received your letter over the weekend. I appreciate your sending me the information <br /> regarding the "triggers" which necessitate a septic system upgrade. I would like to correct <br /> you on the scope of the construction on our house. Two bathrooms were not added. Two <br /> bathrooms were relocated. A laundry room was not added, it too was relocated. A <br /> garbage disposal was not added. There has been no increase in any bathrooms or <br /> mechanical equipment whatsoever at our house. The only increases were attaching a <br /> garage and adding a family room off of the kitchen. <br /> As you state in your letter, to facilitate the construction, I agreed to put money in escrow. <br /> In the event it was determined that a septic system upgrade is necessary. I remain prepared <br /> to do so. However, I did not see anything in the City Ordinances that requires or <br /> "triggers" a septic system back in 1996 nor do I see anything now. You will recall that I <br /> have mentioned this many times before and we have had this discussion before. <br /> As stated above, I am prepared to move forward. As I mentioned in my previous letter, <br /> although it has not been easy to get responses, I have finally received a bid (albeit only <br /> one) to perform the work based on the most recent system design. Nonetheless, while I <br /> am certainly willing to comply with the city ordinances, I do not see that the ordinance <br /> requires me to upgrade the existing system. I should add, the existing system shows no <br /> sign whatsoever of failing. <br /> Please advise me as to the City's position on the above. <br /> Very trul yo rs, <br /> � <br /> � cirY oF <br /> . ORONO <br /> �.��f���.�r� <br /> John Nolan <br /> cc: City Administrator J��' 2 1��7 <br />
