Public sewer ‘loophole’ prompts county moratorium

In a called meeting on Thursday, Jan. 15, Union County Sole Commissioner Harold Collins adopted a resolution enacting an emergency moratorium “on applications for the development of any property on public sewer for the purpose of ordinance review and revisions.”

Effective Jan. 16, the application freeze will remain in place for 90 days “or until repealed by the adoption of new regulations or ordinances.” Collins has the option of extending the moratorium should the ordinance review and drafting of revisions take longer than the 90-day period.
