15 1 -s;i .5 Li <br /> 60 <br /> residents should consider other wastewater alternatives to serve <br /> the subdivision. A copy of this report is attached as Exhibit B. <br /> 3 . Because of the information cited above, the Homeowners <br /> Association desires to have the subdivision served by the Durham <br /> municipal sewer system, so that the homeowners will not have to <br /> rely on the North State Utilities, Inc. system. The City of Durham <br /> has indicated it is willing to serve the subdivision. However, <br /> because of previous agreements made for planning purposes, Durham <br /> will not extend its service into Orange County to serve Piney <br /> Mountain without permission from the Orange water and Sewer <br /> Authority ("Owasa"} and OWASA requires approval from Orange County, <br /> the town of Chapel Hill and the town of Carrboro. <br /> 4 . The Homeowners Association is in the process of <br /> petitioning all related governmental entities for approval of the <br /> Durham extension to Piney Mountain. If these petitions are <br /> granted, the North State system (or much of it) will not be needed <br /> and thus it would be a waste of money to make substantial repairs <br /> to the system at this time. The Homeowners Association is moving <br /> as fast as possible to- have its petitions heard; however, it is <br /> informed that it will take at least a month and possibly two to <br /> gain the approvals needed to allow the subdivision to hook up to <br /> Durham. <br /> 5. Because of the facts cited above, the Homeowners <br /> Association objects to any assessments for capital improvements or <br /> repairs at this time. The Homeowners Association asks the <br /> Commission not to consider any such assessments (except to the <br /> extent required to meet an emergency situation) while the <br /> Homeowners Association pursues its effort to obtain approval for <br /> municipal service to the subdivision and, if approval is obtained, <br /> not make any assessments other than for emergency repairs before <br /> the subdivision can hook up to the Durham system. <br /> This the day of December, 1993. <br /> POYNER & SPRUILL <br /> By: <br /> Nancy Bentson Essex <br /> Attorneys for the Piney Mountain <br /> Homeowners Association <br /> 3600 Glenwood Ave. <br /> Post Office Box 10096 <br /> Raleigh, North Carolina 27605-0096 <br /> Telephone: (919) 783-6400 <br /> i2U1\011317-00''\0083602\ 12-22.93 <br />
