Earth to Herb: ??? You said..."All along the bay are septic systems that are almost 30 years old." Herbie, who said anything about 30+ year old cesspools or septic systems? I am talking about folks who installed new, state of the art, ISDS systems in the last 8-10. You can't compare apples with watermelons.

You said, "Why would anyone spend $20,000 on a new septic system when it's supposedly going to be useless in 5 years and they'll be forced to tie in to sewers? " HELLO, groundwater pollution, runoff, untreated human waste...Or is someone suppose to wait to be charged by the city or State for operating a failed system? So in other words, a responsible property owner who takes the initiative and replaces their failed system with a top of the line ISDS system is foolish?

You said, "Sewers were supposed to be installed 3 years ago, but they're still not installed. " DUH...Do you even have a clue how the bond market works, or put another way, do you believe Moody's, Standard & Poor's or any other of the rating agencies are all foolish, that they don't consider the ratio of debt that a municipality may already be obligated to pay debt service on bonds, before rating, or even considering making a recommendation of a bond grade based on those factors?

Here's the deal...Don't come to me demanding me to tie in when I already put a whole new system in, and according to the engineer who designed the system said that with proper maintenance it should be OK for 35+ years. You are already going to club me with an assessment.

Stark and Reality have this correct...THis department has been a cluster &%$# since the beginning, starting with assessments not being done properly right from the beginning...So now, all Warwick has to pay to make up the financial debacle. What a way to run an airline!
