Title: sewer septic poll
Post by BluffParkwriter on 05/05/08 at 6:04pm

If the measure does go through to place a fee (tax, which would average around an extra $380 a year out of your pocket) on residents who are on a septic tank and not connected to the county sewer system would you move out of Jefferson County?

They are actually talking about doing this again. I think this is the most obsurd concept ever. That would be like the cable company charging me because there are cable jacks in my home, or the phone charging me to not have service...Everyone call and make your voices heard!!!

I think it is totally stupid that I would be asked to pay for sewer when i am on a septic tank. It's not fair that I would be asked to pay. >:( I agree something has to be done but don't penalized those of us who are on a septic tank.

I have a coworker who lives in Alabaster. She uses a septic tank but the sewer line runs through her yard. She has to pay a sewage fee as if she were connected because sewer is available. She was told by the Alabaster Waterboard that the citizen's of Alabaster voted it in and it was law. Hopefully Jefferson County will have to vote on it as well and we can defeat it at the polls.

I think you need another choice:

I am on the sewer, will not move, but am so furious about this I could explode.
