Homer will finally get at Sewer!

A day or two before I put an offer on my house the good people of Homer approved plans to start the Sewer Project.  Had the vote not passed I may have reconsidered my offer as I knew Homer needed a sewer for future growth - especially downtown. 

That was November of 2002.  About nine and a half years later construction will begin.  The plant is to be started in April and the distribution system may take another 2 years.  I have a good septic system but I am looking forward to hooking up to the system.  I am sure the town will be a bit of mess for a few years as the lines go in.  According to the plan my sewer connection is to come up the alley from third street.  My line will need to run across the back yard - good thing that is where my septic system so little major changes will be required to make the connection.
