Residential Connection

If you want to connect to the public sewer and your property is not currently served by the District, you will need to do the following:

• Check the District Map (link is located to the right) and find your property.
• If your property is located within the District boundaries and near an existing public sewer main line you may be able to get a permit to connect a private lateral to the District sewer.  An Application for a new Residential Connection will need to be completed, and connection fees paid in order to be permitted to connect.   
• A link to the Application for New Connection Residential is provided below.
• The applicant will also need to obtain a Lateral Construction Permit (Plumbing Permit) from the District as part of the New Connection process. 
• Plans showing the plumbing in the dwelling and how the lateral will connect to the sewer will need to be provided with the application. 
• If your property is located within the District boundaries but there is no public sewer near your property, you may be able to connect but a sewer extension will be needed to be constructed by you in order to do this.  Call the District Engineer at (831) 624-1248 to inquire about the steps to take to do this.
