The project includes the construction of 8-inch sanitary sewer from Valhalla Drive cross-lots across the University of Michigan’s Golf Course and Driving Range. The proposed sewer will outlet into an existing sanitary sewer located in Golfview Lane. Please see the attached drawing that depicts the project location and the proposed routing of the sanitary sewer.
This project includes the construction of approximately 2,500 lineal feet of 8-inch sanitary sewer to serve the residential properties along Valhalla Drive that have failing septic tanks and tile fields. There are seventeen properties located within the proposed service area. Two of the properties are currently within the City and the remaining parcels are located within an island of Pittsfield Township parcels.
