Septic to Sewer Conversion Information

Lake Clarke at Sunrise

We know this is a big discussion issue all over Town. We also know people are doing research and getting facts for themselves or to share with others. We want to acknowledge Jennifer Chrzanowski and Roger Hoofnagle for contacting the Florida Department of Environmental Protection (FDEP) and asking questions. We thought it was worth sharing the questions asked and FDEP responses with everyone below. FDEP has reviewed the information shown on the Town’s website regarding Lake Clarke & Septic to Sewer Update and has made no recommendations for change.
