66 <br /> wells and septic systems. There were forty-five (45) septic systems included in the <br /> survey, and twelve (12) were failing at that time. Of the twelve malfunctioning septic <br /> systems, seven (7) were further classified as maintenance-related failures, while five (5) <br /> were found to be end-of-life failures. Further investigation revealed that for the five end- <br /> of-Fife failures, there was no suitable soil for an on-site repair. <br /> The Environmental Health Division of the Health Department revisited the five <br /> properties and discovered that two of the properties are vacant, two are seasonal <br /> failures, and one has had patchwork done on it, but not a long-term solution. All of the <br /> five septic systems identified would benefit from the installation of a public sewer <br /> system. <br /> In 2011, Orange County received $75,000 in Community Development Block Grant <br /> (CDBG) funds for the infrastructure hookups in the Rogers Road Neighborhood. In <br /> order to receive connection, the homes had to be close enough to an existing water <br /> and/or sewer line so that no extension of service lines would be required for connection. <br /> Additionally, homeowners had to meet certain income eligibility requirements. There <br /> have been five homes connected to Orange Water and Sewer Authority (OWASA) <br /> sewer as a result of this grant. <br /> OWASA Sewer Concept Plan: <br /> OWASA is the water & sewer utility for the area and as such,it investigated the concept <br /> of providing sewer service as part of the Town of Chapel Hill's Rogers Road Small Area <br /> Plan. On February 8, 2011 OWASA provided an updated concept plan and cost <br /> estimate, for the Rogers Road Small Area Plan Study Area for $3.4 million. This early <br /> concept plan was completed based on the Chapel Hill Small Area Plan which is a <br /> geographically different area than the Historic Rogers Road Neighborhood sewer <br /> concept. There is also some difference in routing some of the main outfalls. In the <br /> current estimate, OWASA needed to avoid the area of contamination coming out from <br /> the Carrboro section that required more line with deeper excavation. Most importantly, <br /> in the earlier estimates neither the availabilities fees were included nor cost of extending <br /> a lateral from the main line to the properties. <br /> OWASA provided a concept plan, layout, and cost estimate for providing sewer service <br /> to the area that was delineated by the Rogers Road Neighborhood Task Force at the <br /> April 30, 2012 meeting. The concept plan is the most efficient way to serve the defined <br /> Rogers Road Neighborhood and does not consider adjoining neighborhoods. See <br /> below, Exhibit 2, the Historic Rogers Road Area Sewer Concept May, 2012 Map. <br /> All the green areas show where sewer service is already available. The dark green <br /> areas are parcels that have connected to the OWASA service. The light green areas <br /> 4 <br />
