Attention: Constance 0 Smith, Supervisor
Reference: Pace Sewer Lateral/Myers Corners Road
Dear Supervisor Smith & Board Members:
I am in receipt of a memo from Michael Tremper dated September 14th,
1998, regarding the above referenced sewer lateral. Mr. Tremper reports
in this memo --that the sewer lateral was found consistent with our as-built
drawing prepared when the job was done in 1992.
I have also had a recent telephone conversation with Mrs. Pace regarding
the sewer lateral. Apparently, her sewer line exits from the house at the
east end, which is opposite of where the sewer tap was placed.
It should be noted that when the sewer main was constructed in front of
her house, the house was not there. When we come across this situation,
the sewer lateral is always placed at the low end of the lot to allow the
homeowner the most latitude in constructing the house and providing the
lowest sewerable elevation.
Mrs. Pace would now like to re-locate the tap to the most eastern portion
of her lot.
It is my recommendation that:
. If the Town Board allows a new tap to be placed at the east end of
the lot on the existing 24" transmission lane, that the existing tap at
the west end of the lot be permanently abandoned.
. The question of whom should bear the cost of the construction of
the new tap and abandonment of the old tap will need to be
addressed by the Town Board.
