Council adopts ordinance annexing 5706 Southeast West Fork Street after emergency sewer connection
Summary
Milwaukie council unanimously adopted an ordinance annexing Tax Lot 1 S 2 E 30 AA 06201 (5706 SE West Fork St.) after staff said the property connected to sewer following septic failure and had paid a reimbursement fee.
Council unanimously adopted an ordinance (file A2025-002, ordinance 2253) annexing a property at 5706 Southeast West Fork Street into the city limits.
Senior planner Brett Calver told council the property paid a reimbursement-district fee during the city's Northeast Sewer Extension project a decade earlier and later experienced septic failure, which led to an emergency connection to sewer. Calver said the owner is following the city's emergency-connection procedure and is proceeding with the formal annexation process.
Motion and vote: a council member moved and another seconded the ordinance for first and second readings by title only; the motion carried unanimously (5-0). City staff read the ordinance title twice and the city recorder called the roll. The ordinance was recorded as 2253.
Ending: the council's approval completes the annexation step required after the property connected to public sewer under the emergency procedure. Staff did not read or attach details about sewer billing arrangements during the record; questions about sewer service billing and provider relationships will be handled by utility staff as needed.
