Sewer Connections

North Sewer District - Details

The fee for connection of existing households is $1,000.00
The fee for new construction or renovation of households or
commercial buildings which adds flow to the system is $2.67 per gallon
based on a four to one reduction goal in accordance with the standard
gallon per day tables of the Department of Environmental Protection.
Example: The addition of one bedroom is 110 gallons/day X $2.67 X 4 =  $1,174.80

All of the funds collected for new or upgraded connections
are segregated for I&I removal.

Weir River Sewer District - Details

There is no separate connection fee at this time.
However, connection of buildings which have not paid a
betterment is $8,153.00 which was the betterment assessed
