Our records alsu indicate that your property is adjacent tn, or is within 150 feet of an existing public sanitary sewer. I have enclosed an excerpt from our saniL-!ry sewer chart indicaling the proximity of your property to a public sanitary sewer system. Any costs to ccnnect, including construction and monthly sewer service charges, i� to be borne by the property owner. If you believe your residence or ousiness is currently connecte� to the City's sewer main, please contact the City ot Everett Public Wo�ics DepaAment at 425-257-8600 so we can update our records. A sewer permit and application issued by the Ciry and signed by an inspector is one viable means of proof. Another alternative to prove the structure is connected to the sewer system is to allow the City of Everett to periorm a dye test. A dye iest re�,uires the owner's permission and the resident's notification to allow a city employee to enter the premises and flush dye into the toilet. In a short amount of time the colored water will appear in the sewer main if the re�idence is hooked up to the sewer system. In the event you are not currently con� �cted to the sewer and wish to delay connection, the City engineer may, on written re:;�est from the property owner, extend the time to connect to the public sewer for a period of up to a maxim�m oi 10 years; provided that, at the property owner's expense, the Snohomish Health District certifies, in writing, to the Public Works Gepartment that the existing sewage system is operational. The Snol�omish Health District can be contacted at 425-339-5250; ask for the Wastewater Division. To request a waiver, please retum the enclosed form. Everett Municipal Code (urther establishes that all properties within 150 teet of an ava�lable public sanitary sewer, who fail to connect after notice by the City, shall pay to ��I i v c if F VFRETI • 3200 Cedar �trect • Fverett.
