Engineers prepare presentation as supervisors say Crabtree sewage plan still under review
Summary
Supervisors told a resident that no final decisions have been made on Crabtree sewage; engineers are preparing a cost and coverage review and will present findings to the public at or before the next meeting.
During the Aug. 21 meeting the Salem Township Board of Supervisors told residents that the Crabtree sewage proposal remains under study and that no final action has been taken.
Resident Eric Hageder asked for an update. Supervisors said engineers have analyzed which areas would receive sewer service and which would not and are assembling cost estimates and a presentation for the public and stakeholders who will need to make funding decisions. Officials said the engineers’ presentation should be available by the next board meeting.
Why it matters: Extending sewer service can affect property owners’ costs, eligibility for connection, and the township’s capital plan. Supervisors indicated that stakeholders — including residents and potential funders — will see engineers’ analyses before a final decision.
What’s next: Engineers will finalize the presentation and cost review for discussion at a future meeting; no funding or construction decisions were made at the Aug. 21 meeting.
