Consider amending the sewer allocation policy for the development of speculative industrial projects less than 75,000 sfin I-1 and any size building in I-2 This proposal is being brought to City Council after receiving input from both industrial developers as well as the Economic Development Corporation (EDC) regarding the current policy provision for speculative industrial development "at risk" with sewer allocation considered when a tenant is identified. The policy makes it difficult for developers to obtain project financing without any allocation prior to commencing construction. Therefore, the proposal is to allocate up to7,500 gallons per day (GPD)for projects in I-1 and I-2 that do not exceed 75,000 sf total within a permitted phase. In addition, to accommodate larger speculative development the proposal is to allocate up to 12,500 gpd for buildings of any size greater than 75,000 sf in I-2 zoning. Sewer allocations for tenant(s) that would result in amounts greater than approved would have to come back to Council for consideration. Council would continue to consider these projects at the quarterly allocation meeting.
