In the City of Fayetteville’s Phase 5 Annexation area, there were approximately 8,000 parcels without sanitary sewer. Retrofit projects 1-3, installing sewer to approximately 600 homes in the Brentwood and LaGrange neighborhoods, began in 2007 and were completed in the summer of 2008. Cost to install services was $3.1 million.

Projects 4 & 5 are currently under construction and will be completed in 2009. Triangle Grading and Paving will install approximately 400 services in the Arran Lakes neighborhood. The estimated cost of the project is $3.6 million.

In the spring of 2008, the City of Fayetteville and PWC Board adopted a construction and funding agreement that will install sewer services to 500 lots per year beginning in 2010. Each have committed to contribution $90.5 million to the 14 year project that is expected to cost $244 million. The plan is based on septic system repairs/failures, age of structures, percentage of non-sewered improved lots, availability of existing approach mains and lot density.

On behalf of City, PWC manages design, construction, citizen notifications, and collecting assessments.
