Financing Options for Sanitary Sewer Work
On August 12, 2014, the Board of Commissioners adopted Ordinance 2014-684 to provide $5,580,000 in financing for street lighting upgrades and sanitary sewer work.
At the Work Session on June 3, 2014, Township staff presented updated financial numbers and a recommended rate structure for sanitary sewer customers. In order to fund a borrowing of $5,580,000 the Township would be required to raise sanitary sewer rates to provide for the increased debt service.

On October 9, 2012, the Board of Commissioners approved Rettew Project No. 057702004 to develop a comprehensive sanitary sewer plan to include the following:
- Inflow and infiltration (I&I) abatement program based on an eight (8) year schedule for the remediation of I&I into the sanitary sewer system;
- Upgrading and rehabilitation of the sanitary sewer system to handle all current and future flows;
- Upgrading and rehabilitation to the existing pumping stations.
Rettew has prepared the rehabilitation plans utilizing current Chapter 94 flow data and flow data from the flow meters installed within the sanitary sewer system.
