<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />October XX, 2015 <br /> <br />Dear Property Owner, <br /> <br />City records indicate your property has access to public sewer and water services but it is not <br />connected to either system. <br /> <br />On December 12, 2012, an ordinance amendment was adopted which incorporated the following <br />conditions about connection: <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />Properties with access to public utility services be connected to the public sewer and water <br />systems at the time of failure of either the property’s existing septic system or the property’s <br />existing well; <br />Or, <br /> <br /> <br />When the property is sold, whichever comes first. <br /> <br />In 2012, the City Council further approved a financing program to assist property owners with the <br />cost of connections. The program allows connection costs (construction, meter, sewer access charge <br />(SAC), and water access charge (WAC), to be financed through the city and levied as a special <br />assessment against the property. This program expires on December 31, 2015. This letter is being <br />sent as a reminder of the sunset of this program. If connections are made after December 31, 2015, <br />property owners are responsible for financing all associated costs when a connection is made. <br /> <br />We have attached a Petition, Waiver, and Agreement form, for your use, should you elect to make <br />connection before the end of 2015 and desire to take advantage of the current financing program <br />through the city. Feel free to contact me if you have any questions on the completion of the form. <br /> <br />If your property is currently connected to the public systems and you believe you have received this <br />notice in error, please contact me at 763-635-1051. <br /> <br />Sincerely, <br /> <br /> <br />Justin Femrite, PE <br />City Engineer <br />jfemrite@elkrivermn.gov <br /> <br /> <br />
