“We’re looking at a benefits assessment approach versus a user approach.”
Bill Michaud informed the Board of Finance members at their meeting last night. This would allow the WPCA to charge the approximately 79 abutting users of existing sewer lines for the benefit of having the lines available, even though they haven’t yet connected to those lines. See our upcoming report on the WPCA meeting where this benefits assessment approach was discussed.
