i <br /> CITY of ORONO <br /> I A 1 -V V Municipal Offices <br /> Street Address: Mailing Address: <br /> .g,� ', P.O. Box 66 <br /> kE88 J 2750 Kelley Parkway <br /> Orono, MN 55356 Crystal Bay, MN 55323-CO66 <br /> Dear Mr. Knight: <br /> The current septic system at 425 Tonkawa Rd. must be replaced or repaired to meet current codes. <br /> The property is within the Shoreland District and City Code requires that existing septic systems <br /> p p ert y <br /> in these areas conform to current standards. The septic system was inspected on September 29, <br /> 1993 and found to be non-conforming. The City Council determined that all areas that will not <br /> be sewered in the near future must repair non-conforming septic systems by December 31, 1996. <br /> The repair of this septic system could be accomplished by either connection to city sewer or the <br /> iproperty <br /> replacement of the septic system. Our records indicate that this lies within the MUSA <br /> area and sewer is available to this property. For unknown reasons the property was not assessed <br /> for sewer, but a stub was installed. In order to connect to the sewer, an assessment fee of� <br /> 5 plus ,�A per frontage foot (use 21 feet). A Sewer Availability Charge (SAC) of 4&619-and a <br /> (v n charges are $9,164.20 plus the <br /> permit fee of $35.50 is also required. The total connectio g <br /> within the MUSA area and a stub <br /> physical connection costs (call a plumber). As the property is <br /> is available, the City favors connection to the sewer to the replacement of the septic system. <br /> The replacement of the septic system could also be an option to remedy the existing non- <br /> conforming septic system. As the property lies within the MUSA area, the City Council must <br /> approve the installation of a septic system in a sewered zone. This alternative would cost between <br /> $8,000 to $12,000 for a typical three or four bedroom system. Therefore, no appreciable savings <br /> would be observed by installing a replacement septic system. <br /> Please conctact me at the City Offices if there are any questions. <br /> Sincerely, <br /> Stephen Weckman <br /> On-Site Systems Manager <br /> Telephone (612) 473-7357 9 FAX 473-0510 <br />
