Miscellaneous Resolution #3705
Recommended by the Board of Public Works
In Re: Huron River Sewage Disposal System
Submitted by: Mr. Horton
Mr. Chairman, Ladies and Gentlemen:
WHEREAS, the Board of Public Works has received requests from the Town-
ships of Commerce, Novi and West Bloomfield as well as the municipalities of,
Village of Novi, Walled Lake, Orchard Lake and Wixom to prepare a Master Plan
for Sanitary sewers and sewage disposal for the Huron River Basin and the remain-
der of the Rouge River Basin in Southwest Oakland County, and
WHEREAS, in the opinion of the governing authorities of these municipali-
ties, the development of this area of Oakland County is in the path of expected
population explosion, and actually now in progress, will be seriously affected
from a health standpoint if an early solution to the sanitary problem is not devel-
oped, and
WHEREAS, it is the responsibility of the Department of Public Works to
develop such solutions where requested, and
WHEREAS, the Board of Public Works has reviewed the recommendations
of the Director of Public Works and recommends to the Board of Supervisors that
such a program be carried out and known as the Huron River Sewage Disposal
System.
NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED, that the Board of Supervisors approves
the project as recommended by the Board of Public Works and authorizes said
Board to take the necessary steps toward the preparation of a Master Plan of
sewers and sewage treatment facilities for the area, and
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that the Department of Public Works cooperate
with the municipalities of the area in the development of the program, as well as
any other units of government or agencies necessary to adequately coordinate the
Master Plan so that no duplication of facilities will occur, and
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that the sum of $2,200.00 be advanced to the
Department of Public Works upon approval of the Ways and Means Committee,
said funds to be advanced on a "loan basis" and to be repaid when construction
financing is completed, and
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that it is the understanding of the Board that
funds so advanced on a loan basis will be supplemented by funds advanced by the
local units of government, to be used to study and plan the development of a
master sewage system for the Huron River Basin.
Mr. Chairman, I move the adoption of this resolution
