Don Jack inquired whether or not the City should require new
additions to form a sewer district where they are not within 200
feet of a hookup on public sewers. The board agreed it would be
well to have the development to plan for the sewer to have everything
ready to just hook into the sewer when it is put in. It was thought
that a letter should be written to this effect so that the Planning
Commission would have something to follow; this should be put in plus
the septic tank should the addition not want to form a sewer district.
There being no further business, upon motion by Scudder and
seconded by Brenner, meeting adjourned.
