Sewer Back-Up Claims: Private Valves <br /> Conclusion <br /> • The ordinance as written regardingrejection of all <br /> private valve sewer back-up claims from storm <br /> events represents a reasonable policy decision. <br /> • Looking at the spectrum, this part of the ordinance <br /> is more inclined toward individual responsibility <br /> than ratepayer responsibility. <br /> • The other reasonable approaches, which would <br /> include City maintenance of private valves, were <br /> considered by Council in 2014. Council had <br /> legitimate concerns regarding the cost of these <br /> other approaches and did not choose them. <br />
