Outside Sewer Permit
Philip Justis
The subject matter was continued from the meeting
of February 7, 1966. Director of Planning Robert
Byrd briefly reviewed Mr. Justis' application and
-�. --
displayed two diagrams of the area; one showing
the total parcels indicating the physical layout
of the location, and the other showing ownership
and possible future development of the parcels,
giving a detailed explanation of each. He dis-
cussed the_ poss'ibility o , ,granting the outside
sewer connections conditioned upon certain re-
quirements the Council might include with regard
to construction of_'City standard improvements.
Director of Public Works David Young pointed out
the health hazard created by septic tanks in the
area, and in order to eliminate this problem,
suggested that only connection of the six existing
residences be allowed. He added that this sewage
would be pumped by private force main into the
City system at Paula Lane and West Street, and
when Line A -1 of the Sewer Master Plan is con-
structed along with associated collector lines, a
gravity main which has constructed through
Mr. Justis' property will be connected into the
upstream end of the collector line and the private
force main abandoned. In summarizing the matter,
-
four proposals were outlined by Mr. Byrd and
Mr. Young for.Council consideration:
1. Grant the outside sewer application as
requested (connection of six existing
structures and one future structure)
with certain standard street improve-
ments required.
2. Deny the outside sewer application and
proceed with the annexation.
3. Deny both the outside sewer application
and annexation.
4. Grant the outside sewer application for
the six existing structures and not for
