An excerpt from the minutes of the December 1% 1993 meeting of the Study Commission is cited below to indicate the relationship of the first phase of water line extensiol~s to the general plan. This review was done by Mr. Paul Watson who represented HDR. Mr. Watson moved into a review of the phasing of water and sewer development for the County. He noted that the water line extensions currently being proposed are similar to the first phase of development outlined in the various engineering reports. He reviewed what has occurred in the planning process for the implementation of Phase I water line extensions. In this revie% the following points were covered: 1) The major water transmission line along U.S. 29 to Pitts School Road and north up that road for a short distance is currently under construction. 2) The financial arrangements for Phase I water line additions were reviewed. The County Commission has called a bond referendum of 7.2 million dollars. 3) Reviewed the use of the district concept. Noted that the proposed Water and Sewer District, is composed of three areas~ and that the area boundaries were drawn using natural features~ township boundaries~ precinct boundaries~ and the boundaries of other governmental entities. #) Watson showed a map that had the extensions proposed to be built after the current Phase is completed. a). Phase 2 (1986-1992) would cost approximately 5 million dollars b) Phase 3 (1992-2000) at a cost of approximately # million dollars c) Phase 0 (2000+) with no cost estimates given. This phasing would eventually provide an interconnected and looped water system. Watson then reviewed the county sewer facility plan. 1) Noted those aspects of the system now under design, which are composed of lines in the Harrisburg area and the Back Creek/Rocky River interceptor. The estimated cost is 2.q million dollars.
