PUBL /C WO?K5 <br />April 6, 2006 <br />JAMES LEPLEY <br />528 116TH ST SE <br />EVERETT WA 98208 <br />Re: Connection to Available Public Sewer -- 52d 11G1 H ST SE <br />This letter is to inform you that a review of our records indicates that your property may <br />not be connected to the public sewer system. The Everett Munir,ipal Code requires all <br />property owners within 150 feet or adjacent to a public sanitary sewer shall connect <br />their private sewer system to the public sewer after being notified by the City of Ev�rett <br />Public Works Depar'.ment. <br />Our reccrds also indicate that your property is adjacent to, or is within 150 feet of an <br />existing public sa�itary sewer. I have enclosed an excerpt from our sanitary sewer <br />chart indicating the proximity of your property to a p��blic sanitary sewer system. Any <br />costs to connect, including construction and monthiy sewer service charges, is to be <br />borne by the property owner. <br />If you believe your residence or business is currently connected to the City's sewer <br />main, plea�e contact the City of E�erett Public Works Uepartment at 425-257-8800 so <br />we can update our records. <br />A �ewer permit and application issued by the City and signed by an inspector is one <br />viable means of proof. Another alternative to prove lhe structure is connected to the <br />sewer system is to allow the City of Everett to perform a dye test. A dye test requires <br />the owner's permission and the resident's notification to allow a city employee to enter <br />the premises and flush dye into the toilet. In a short amount of time the colored water <br />will appear in the sewer riain ii the residence is hooked ��a to the sewer system. <br />In the event you are not c:urrent!y connected to the sewer and wisf� to delay connection, <br />the City engineer may, on written request from the property owner, extend the time to <br />connect to the public sewer for a period of up to a maximum of 10 years; provided that, <br />at the property owner's expense, fhe Snohomish Heaith District certifies, in writing, to <br />the Public Works Department that the existing sewage system is operational. The <br />Snohomish Health District can be contacted at 425-339-5250; ask for the Wast�water <br />Division. To request a waiver, please retum the enclosed form. <br />[verett Municipal Code further establishes that all properties within 150 feet of an <br />available public sanitary sewer, who fail to connect after notice by the City, shall pay to <br />�;II Y OF (�.VERCTT • 3?00 Cedar Street •[verett.
