EVMWD Septic to Sewer Conversion Project Community Meeting Oct 14, 2024

The Elsinore Valley Municipal Water District held a community meeting to discuss the Septic to Sewer Conversion Project for Sedco Hills residents. The project, funded by the Clean Water Revolving Fund, aims to replace septic systems with a gravity sewer system to improve water quality, reduce maintenance costs, and increase property values. The meeting covered project benefits, timelines, technical details including the installation of grinder pumps for properties lower than the sewer line, and the construction process. Residents were informed about the importance of signing Right of Entry forms to allow construction on their properties, with a submission deadline of November 30th. The district emphasized communication during construction to minimize disruptions and addressed various resident questions regarding property impacts, electrical requirements, and project scope. The meeting concluded with collection of signed forms and availability of staff to answer further questions.
