VITOUSEK: Right. And, and— <br /> CHEN: We've already looked into that. <br /> PIPAN: If I may, part of that discussion relates to density. So, the cost per unit at the <br /> eventual sale, if you're having to extend a sewer line 1,000 feet and you can spread that <br /> cost over 50 or so lots, then it becomes affordable. But if you're spreading that cost the <br /> same amount of sewer line over 10 lots or 11 lots, then it kills the project. There's no way <br /> you can accomplish the subdivision. <br /> VITOUSEK: And that, that's for extending sewer to the project? <br /> PIPAN: So, yeah, the sewer line would have to come up another 500 feet across Lot 42 <br /> before even reaching the property boundary. <br /> VITOUSEK: Is Lot 42 RS-10 there? <br /> PIPAN: Correct. <br /> ANDREWS: Yeah. <br /> VITOUSEK: Okay. My question is whether, you know, one of the conditions of <br /> approval is that the water infrastructure be built and dedicated to the County for this area. <br /> Could we do something similar with sewer, where you're also building your own sewer <br /> within your project and then eventually when the neighbors have connected to sewer and <br /> built sewer out for their, we can connect onto them at that point. So that rather than <br /> locking ourselves into individual wastewater systems now and not being able to be <br /> flexible in the future when sewer does become available with RS-10 immediately next <br /> door. <br /> PIPAN: Yes, thanks for the question. That's, that's possibly the worst of both worlds if <br /> you're trying to make this make sense in terms of financially in the end. So, having to <br /> build the sewer and put in septic systems for each home that's twice the cost and, you <br /> know, there's no, there's no assurance that RS-10 property will be developed in the very <br /> near future. So, you've already got septic systems, why not keep septic systems? They're <br /> designed by civil engineers; they're approved by Department of Health. They look at the <br /> soils, they look at the infiltration and our aging undersized wastewater treatment plants <br /> are possibly not the best solution either. <br /> VITOUSEK: And did you evaluate the possibility of doing a small batch wastewater <br /> treatment system that was recommended by Department of Health? <br /> 17 <br /> EXHIBIT F <br />
