Only a ioo speciiic areas axe targeted ior possible iutuxe seicers in the rural
parts oi Oxono. These areas icill probably not be served until/unless tcidespread
system iailures occur. The City has applied ior Federal Grant Monies to install
sewer ior speciiic areas, including Crystal Bay, Stubbs Bay/Westlake Street, and
Stubbs Bay NE. These are historically developed areas with substantially less
than the minimum 2-acre lot size and have a potential ior septic system iailures
which couldn*t be repaired adequately on-site. However it may be years beiore
seicers actually go in. The remaining parts oi rural Orono, in the 2-acre and
5-acre zoning districts, are speciiically excluded ^rem being seicered in the
foreseeable future.
