Wastewater Infrastructure Extension vs. Septic Waivers for Commercial Developments

Developers of small industrial and residential tracts sought waivers from mandatory sewer extension rules, arguing that connecting to distant lines is cost-prohibitive for small businesses. City staff opposed the waivers, citing potential environmental and stormwater impacts on nearby waterways like Oso Creek.

What it means: Developers claimed sewer extension costs would add $100,000 to $150,000 per lot, rendering projects economically unfeasible.
