The 2012 Fee Schedule indicates a Connection Fee to Orono of$16,720 due at the time of connection. This is the current cost based on the original 1973 project unit cost. - Additionally,this is a category 3 property under the .. e Cove S&W Agreement between Orono and Long Lake. Because the 1973 sewer system discharges ' . he •ng Lake system, any new connections to it also will be charged a City of Long Lake connection fee of 1900( 112 Fee Schedule) which we collect and pass through to Long Lake. C F (.'i.(r-e n t / N c kt et__-- - The escrow required due to the sale of the property wit a non-compliant septic system relies on getting a bid on replacing the septic system. That is detailed in the at ched Code excerpt. In the case of a sewer connection, we would base the required escrow on the bid cost of ma ing the sewer connection. - We can document that this property paid a $425 SAC chane in 1982 when the house was built, at a time when Met Council was collecting SAC on any new home regardle s whether it was being connected to sewer. Therefore,they should not have to pay the MCES SAC charg-. I hope this is helpful. Further questions regarding the septic can be irwarded to Septic/Building Inspector Willie Gibbs; questions about the actual sewer connection should go to Public Wor s Director Jesse Struve or Utilities Supervisor Scott Oberaigner.
