Augusta Utilities Sanitary Sewer Connection Services Program
Department:
Caption:Motion to approve Augusta Utilities Sanitary Sewer Connection
Services Program. (Approved by Engineering Services Committee
November 10, 2014) (Referred from November 18 Commission
meeting)
Background:In an effort to assist our customers, we are proposing a Sanitary
Sewer Connection Services Program whereby Augusta Utilities
would contract to connect customers to sanitary sewer where it is
available. This work would include abandoning existing septic
tanks and rerouting plumbing to the tap. We propose that
customers who elect to participate in the program pay a
$50/month surcharge on their sewer bill for 24 months, for a total
customer contribution of $1200. Augusta Utilities would bear any
additional cost. We propose pre-qualifying a pool of plumbing
contractors to perform this work, and work would be assigned on
a competetive basis, similar to the task order program.
Analysis:In areas where sanitary sewer is extended into existing
developments, many customers would like to connect but cannot
afford the cost of replumbing. This program would assist our
customers as well as increase our customer base and revenue.
Financial Impact:AUD has budgeted $200,000 for this program.
Alternatives:The Commission could elect not to approve this program.
Recommendation:We recommend that the commission approve the program
described above.
