In order for this site to be served with water the owner would be responsible for all costs associated with extending it to and across the frontage of the site, and for connecting to the public line.
City sanitary sewer is available by connecting to the existing 8-inch line located within either South Elm-Eugene Street or the north of the site. In order for this site to be served with sanitary sewer the owner would be responsible for all costs associated with connecting to the public line.
