Lower Plenty Sewerage Project
Following a review of our Community Sewer Program commitments and feedback from property owners in the area impacted by the Lower Plenty Sewerage Project, the project is delayed. We apologise for any inconvenience.
We are in the planning stages of this project, which will provide sewerage services to properties in Lower Plenty that cannot contain their wastewater onsite.
This project will benefit the Lower Plenty community by:
- Improving the health of local waterways
- Protecting public health
- Reducing sewer odours that are currently noticeable in the area
- Providing a more liveable environment for locals and visitors to the area.
PROJECT UPDATE
February 2020
Project updates care of yvw.com.au
Over the past 12 months we have reviewed the sewerage service needs of properties in the unsewered parts of Lower Plenty and captured feedback from property owners.
The initial design, presented to the community at an information session in November 2017, provided sewer connections to properties that were unable to contain wastewater within their boundary. This was approximately half of the properties in the investigation area.
Following feedback from the community, we have revised our service delivery approach and will provide sewerage connections to all properties within the investigation area. The properties impacted by this decision are shown on Lower Plenty Sewerage Project area map.
We will now need to undertake additional work which will delay the delivery of this project. We expect the new sewerage network to be available in 2023.
We encourage you to continue maintaining your existing sewerage system and apologise for any inconvenience.
