Christina Dugoni, representing Overlake Farm, told the council during public comment that the developer installed a roughly 4,000‑linear‑foot sewer main along 140th Avenue and has spent about $3 million on the extension. Dugoni said the developer is negotiating a latecomer agreement with the utility but that utility staff have refused to reserve sewer capacity for future development tied to the extension.

Dugoni told council the extension repaired an older failing Valley Creek sewer line and made sewer service available to middle‑housing projects that were previously on septic. She said Overlake Farm expects to receive latecomer fees from about 70 parcels over the next 20 years but urged the council to direct the utilities department to provide a reservation of capacity to protect the project from future capacity reductions tied to possible up‑zoning.

Dugoni said there is no law forbidding a reservation and that the requested reservation is a practical safeguard for a private developer that has already constructed public infrastructure. Councilmembers acknowledged the concern and said staff would follow up; no formal council action was taken on Oct. 28.
