Sewer committee approves 1 SFU reservation and waives fee for Glendale Utility District
Summary
Wilson County’s sewer access committee approved a 1 SFU (350 gpd) reservation for Glendale Utility District at 3826 Vester Road and unanimously waived the county capacity fee; staff said payment is due before final approval and reservations generally last two years with one two‑year extension.
The Wilson County Sewer Access Committee voted unanimously to grant Glendale Utility District a 1 SFU (350 gallons per day) sewer access reservation for a property at 3826 Vester Road and to waive the county capacity fee.
Staff member Christopher summarized the request and the committee’s standard terms: fees are due prior to final approval, a 10% nonrefundable reservation fee must be paid within 30 days, and approved reservations are for two years with a possible two‑year extension upon presentation of a site plan. Christopher also said staff had reviewed city of Lebanon fee calculations and attached the city’s fee letter to the packet.
A committee member moved to approve the request and to waive the county payment entirely; the maker argued the utility had previously waived fees for the county and said, “motion that we approve this, with and waive the pay completely because they have waived more than that for us,” which a colleague seconded to get discussion going. The motion carried by voice vote with all members saying “aye.”
Staff recorded the segment capacity as part of the Couchville Pike segment totals and noted remaining unreserved capacity after the approval. Committee members reiterated the county’s policy that fees are due before final approvals and discussed their preference in practice for receiving full payment up front rather than tracking outstanding balances over years.
The committee’s action directs staff to process the reservation under the committee’s standard timeline and fee conditions.
Ending: The committee moved on to the next agenda item after the unanimous vote.
