FINANCIAL IMPACT OF THE INDIVIDUAL SEWAGE TREATMENT SYSTEM ORDINANCE
T'his ordinance is primarily the responsibility of the Building Official and the Division of Public
Health. While the duties assigned the Building Official are already being done and thus do not
require additional staff, those assigned the Division of Public Health are new and do require
additional funding. We propose that this funding come from user fees paid by the owner of an
individual sewage treatment system (septic tank) at the time of an initial inspection (for all
septic tanks in existence at the time the ordinance is adopted) and on an annual basis when the
systems are recertified.
There are two points at which a fee would be required. First is at the time an existing septic
tank is inspected. The ordinance states that, within 12 months of adoption of the ordinance, all
existing systems shall be inspected and an inspection report (provided by the Division of Public
Health) submitted to Public Health, along with such fee as may be prescribed by the City
Council. Upon receipt of a completed and satisfactory report and payment of the fee, Public
Health will send a certificate to the property owner verifying that the system conforms to the
requirements of the ordinance. Thereafter, on an annual basis, the property owner is required
to have an inspection of the system, submit a completed inspection report form and pay the
requisite fee for recertification. All new septic tanks installed after the effective date of the
ordinance must also file annual inspection reports and pay the recertification fee.
In addition to the annual inspection, the ordinance requires septic tank pumping at least every
three years. A pumping report must be submitted to Public Health for record-keeping.
The proposed fees are:
$50.00 initial certification fee for systems in existence on the effective date of the
ordinance
$20.00 annual fee to be paid at the time of recertification
The initial fee is larger to cover start-up costs for the computer monitoring system and for initial
data entry. The annual recertification fee will cover on-going data entry (of inspection and
pumping reports) and monitoring of compliance with the ordinance (including a system to
remind property owners that their annual inspection date is approaching). Fees may also pay
for staff time to inspect systems that may constitute a public health hazard or to investigate
complaints regarding improperly functioning systems.
