4 - "WEEKEND STAR" Sewage system capacity allotted, council told From page 1 The expansion would see the system's capacity increased to one million gallons per day. An interim expansion was completed last summer. It saw the system's capacity increased from 0.5 million gallons to .75 million gallons per day. The final expansion definitely puts a cap on the growth of urban Port Perry, said Mr. Curtis. "All of (the developers) are waiting at the gate, and guys are scooping up all the capacity. There's a real pent-up demand nen LS SE EEE LAS es, for homes in Port Perry," he said. "That's it. There's a limited capacity there because of the Nonquon River. Based on the current technology, we can't go above one million gallons. "Unless there is some new technology, you want to start pumping (the sewage to Lake Scugog), or people there use a lot less water, that's going to be it." There is a considerable amount of capacity allocated to new subdivisions, and other developers on the waiting list for municipal services. That means there is capacity for just 12 more new single family dwellings. Tastes like steak! 2. gues ayeeee! Aside from subdivisions, capacity has been set aside for 13 vacant lots in the Port Perry area, 28 homes on Couldliff Blvd., and 36 homes in Port Perry which are eligible for services but are not yet hooked up. And Durham Region has set aside capacity for 212 existing homes in the Prince Albert area. The septic systems on these properties are aging, and officials want space allocated at the sewage sys- tem in case they fail. While there has been no capacity set aside for new commercial or industrial units, Mr. Curtis said that these types of ¥ Ua Te TY ST Te [i Ta A Te NTIS R 00 48 months on ALL NEW 2001 VEHICLES oa 510 Taunton Rd.

M.S.R.P. $7099 units usually use only about 20 per cent of the water and sewage capacity that resi- dential units would. There is room for such businesses as a hotel or motel complex, but not a canning or bottling factory, he said. When asked how the township might free up more capacity for future develop- ments, Mr: Curtis said councillors could consider reclaiming sewage capacity allot- ted to developers whose projects have taken too long to be built. Mr. Curtis told the committee that capacity figures could change slightly from year to year. \ 8 Or $0 Down 9.95% 60 mth OAC Finding an ATV that works as hard as it plays can be a tough task.
