Langford resident questions value for sewerage dollars

A Langford resident is concerned about the value behind sewer hookups of the Knotty Pine Road development.

Re: (Gazette, Nov. 11)

Being a resident of the Knotty Pine Road development I was wondering if the Gazette knew why, if a developer is required to pay for the installation of sewers to come up Lequesne Avenue and a short distance down Knotty Pine, that homeowners are required to pay between $10,000 and $12,000 to hookup.It was stated at the Nov. 7 meeting that the developer was to pay for this installation, which includes a trunk line and branches to each homeB´ÎÔª¹ÙÍøÍøÖ·™s property line on the way to KeycorpB´ÎÔª¹ÙÍøÍøÖ·™s property development.

It seems to be hard to find out what you receive for this amount of money, which I donB´ÎÔª¹ÙÍøÍøÖ·™t have, but I must hook up before 2019. It seems Westshore Environmental gets a extra $50,000 or $60,000 from the neighbours. Can you help with this or am I on the wrong track thinking this way? And yes, it would be nice to have sewers, but at such an expense to homeowners?
