Bill > S2945

This bill allows the town of Norfolk to establish a town center wastewater service area and provides the sewer commission with additional powers to manage the limited wastewater treatment capacity in the area. Specifically, the bill allows the sewer commission to require property owners within the designated service area to connect to the common sewer system and pay a proportional share of the construction costs upfront. The bill also authorizes the sewer commission to impose surcharges on subsequent connections and on property owners who increase their sewage flow beyond the initially estimated amount. Additionally, the bill establishes a town center wastewater enterprise fund to finance the construction, operation, and maintenance of the sewer system in the designated area.
