September Update from the Paa-Ko Sewer Board
FROM THE PAA-KO COMMUNITIES SEWER ASSOCIATION BOARD:
PCSA September Update
Well, the ordeal continues with the Sewer System Planning RFP. Negotiations with Molzen-Corbin are dragging out because their initial bid was so much higher than we had anticipated. The good news is: because it dragged on so long, the sale by Mountain Ranch, Ltd. of the remaining undeveloped property in Paa-Ko, as well as the developed vacant lots to Steven Chavez of Mesa del Sol was concluded. This clarified a major issue with future plans for expansion of the system. The new owners were kind enough to provide us with a new board member to cover the role due to the recent resignation of our Treasurer. Jerome Gonzales is now helping the BOD and is giving us clarification as to future growth needed in the system. One of the concerns had been that if Cox sold the Mountain Ranch Properties to a builder of a high density homes, which would have required expansion of the Wastewater treatment facility and, at a cost of several million dollars with significant increases in sewer fees. Jerome has assured us that their expansion will be in very large lots with multimillion dollar homes so no expansion of the plant will be required.
