The RFP is only to determine costs, not to actually build a sewer system in Hidden Valley. Once the costs are determined for this one neighborhood, the Waste Water Department will begin holding public meetings in neighborhoods now on septic, but which might consider adopting the grinder pump system.
Public meetings are expected to begin in 6 or 7 weeks. By then the results of the study should be available. The Waste Water Department believes that the last sewer proposal which included Section S17 was rejected overwhelmingly because of its expense. The new sewer system is expected to be much cheaper.
