well actually Dave , there are 2 homes that are literrally in the direct path of the center line ofRead More the sewer- I'm afraid if the sewer is permitted to go thru they would have to condemn them - the blasting would be so close- I don't think the houses could sustain it- they are built on pillars because their so close to the water- they are beautiful waterfront homes! full of children who go swimming and just love their homes and the creek.. the sewer would go right thru their well water lines and septic systems.. when there is another alternative right across the creek!
