Mayor Sullivan asked if MUSA would be assigned to properties not currently in the MUSA in the event of a septic failure. Mr. Ahrens stated that some cities have not applied the MUSA in that situation. The decision would be determined by Council. Because the process is timely, he would recommend to allow those properties to connect. The MUSA issue would be addressed at a later time. Immediate connection would be advised because of the safety and health factors. Mayor Sullivan expressed concern regarding the outstanding MUSA issue. She asked if the MUSA designation for the south east portion of the City could be assigned to another area. Mr. Wessel stated that MUSA allocation excludes emergencies.
