Authority approves CCRC request to connect to New Britain sewer and leave Farmington sewer shed
Summary
The Farms and Water Pollution Control Authority approved a request from CCRC to connect a lot to the New Britain sanitary sewer and withdraw it from the Farmington sewer shed, describing the change as administratively straightforward and citing prohibitive cost to extend Farmington sewer to the site.
Under new business the authority considered a request from CCRC to connect a parcel to the New Britain sanitary sewer and to withdraw that parcel from the Farmington sewer shed. Staff told the authority the flow contribution would be small and that extending Farmington sewer lines to reach the parcel would be cost prohibitive, and recommended approval of the separation.
Members discussed the administrative steps required to record the change, including updating the watershed/sewer-shed map and sending a letter to the approving authority. One member said the action is mostly a formality and that such requests are rarely denied.
A motion to approve the CCRC separation was moved and seconded and carried by voice vote; the authority did not record a roll-call tally. Staff were instructed to update the maps and submit the necessary documentation.
