Nays 0: <br />( #14A) POLICY REGARDING INCLUSION OF PROPERTIES IN SEWER <br />PROJECTS - RESOLUTION NO. 3960 <br />Moorse reported that the proposed policy amendment is for exclusion of properties from <br />sanitary sewer nroiects. as directed by Council. It was noted that the timeliness of the <br />project does not always correlate with the need to replace a septic system. The Council <br />would like to allow for the difference in conditions of septic systems allowing residents <br />not to be forced to immediately hook up to sewer if their septic system is in compliance <br />with code. The propertv owner can request to opt out for exclusion from the project. <br />Jabbour noted that the amendment of the policy was a result of a work session by the <br />Council regarding sewering Orono for the future. <br />Kelley recognized the key issue is that the property owners opt back into the sewer <br />oroiect at the 100% oer unit cost in the future. Kellev noted that this is a nolicv only and <br />future Councils are not bound by it. <br />Kelley moved, Peterson seconded, to adopt Resolution No. 3960 amending the City's <br />policy regarding inclusion of properties in sanitary sewer projects. <br />13 <br />
