MINUTES OF THE REGULAR ORONO CITY COUNCIL <br />MEETING HELD ON MAY 13, 1996 <br />• (#9 - On -Site Systems Code Ordinance Amendment - Continued) <br />Kelley said he questioned the quality of mound systems. Hurr noted that a mound system <br />can be rebuilt. Weckman said a rebuilding of a mound system would cost approximately <br />$5,00047,000. A new mound system is approximately $10,000. It was brought out that <br />this cost is less than the cost of sewering. Weckman said he has never seen the need to <br />abandon a mound system site and failures are usually the result of bad installation. <br />Hurr moved, Goetten seconded, to adopt Ordinance No. 147, Second Series, an <br />Ordinance Deleting Section 5.37 of the Orono Municipal Code Relating to On -Site <br />Sewage Treatment Systems Contractors, and Deleting Section 5.38 Relating to On -Site <br />Sewage Treatment Systems Site Evaluators and Designers, and Amending Section 12.30 <br />Relating to On -Site Sewage Treatment Systems, and to approve the abridged version of <br />said ordinance for publication. The Amendment would establish a period of 10 years for <br />completion of repairs to non- Shoreland systems found to be non - conforming due only to <br />lack of 3 -foot separation. Vote: Ayes 5, Nays 0. <br />MAYOR/COUNCIL REPORT <br />Kelley mentioned the letter to be provided by the City to the Met Council regarding the <br />MUSA Amendment.
