A.
The WSA may expand a sewer service area after considering requests
and recommendations from the Town and from the Newtown Health District;
conformance with the Town's water pollution control plan; current
availability of capacity in downstream sewerage system facilities
based on EDUs plus allowance for nonexcessive inflow and infiltration;
orders of the DEEP; conformance with the Town's plan of development
and with the state "Conservation and Development Policies Plan for
Connecticut"; and conformance with the Town's Planning and Zoning
Commission requirements and Inland Wetlands requirements.
B.
When the WSA approves SSA expansions, it shall revise the Sewer Service
Area Map accordingly, indicating the limits of the sewer service area
and the location of public sewers and transmission mains.
A.
The WSA may undertake the design and construction of sewer extensions and recover the costs of such projects, including financing costs, by levying sewer assessments against the properties benefiting from said extensions in accordance with Article VI herein and by any grants for such extensions obtained by the Town.
B.
Alternatively, the WSA may authorize a property owner to undertake
the design and construction of a sewer extension subject to the approval
of the Public Works Director. Before commencing work, the property
owner shall deposit with the Town a sum deemed by the Public Works
Director to be sufficient to defray his cost of review, supervisory
engineering, inspection, testing and all other expenses incurred by
the Town.
C.
The Town may require a sewer extension agreement with any person
for the construction of sewers to serve a property not abutting an
existing sewer. Said agreement shall require, whenever the work is
not in a duly accepted public highway, that adequate rights-of-way
be conveyed to the Town prior to the start of construction of such
sewer, the terms of conveyance being subject to approval of the Town
Attorney. The applicant shall be liable for that portion of the assessed
sewer benefit over and above the cost of the sewer extensions in Town
streets or rights-of-way.
