Spring Hill moves on sewer allocations, $2.5M plant assessment and developer MOU
Summary
The board approved a first reading to amend sewer-reserve rules, heard a developer-led proposal for a decentralized treatment system, and staff outlined a likely $2.5 million assessment of the municipal wastewater plant to diagnose electrical and mechanical failures.
Spring Hill's Board of Mayor and Aldermen approved a first reading of an ordinance to amend the city's sewer-capacity reserve and heard competing tracks for how to manage limited wastewater capacity: short-term allocations for medical tenants, a staff-proposed multifirm plant assessment estimated at about $2.5 million, and a developer-led pre-MOU for a decentralized treatment basin that could shift treated gallons off the city plant.
John Hoffensberger, president of CMK Properties, asked the board to approve a 500-gallons-per-day allocation from the reserve for two medical providers at 5221 Port Royal Road, saying the request equals "one half of one percent" of the city's cited 100,000-gallon reserve and would allow finish-out of currently vacant medical spaces. "Approving this today allows these clinics to move forward, treat patients, and serve the community," Hoffensberger said.
