No recommendation on requiring residents or businesses to hook up to the new sewer was made, nor was any assessment policy recommendation made.The second recommendation was to revise the city’s subsurface treatment system ordinance to require all property owners with septic systems to have their systems inspected and pumped, if necessary, every three years. Property owners would be required to file reports with the city to show that the inspections had been completed.Full Story | Crow Wing Power Member Appreciation Day and Annual Meeting Well AttendedOn Saturday, it’s estimated that 2,500 people attended the 82st Crow Wing Power Member Appreciation Day and Annual Meeting.
