Trumbull County to approve septic system replacement pact
TweetWARREN — Trumbull County commissioners are expected to approve a contract Wednesday with King Brothers of Bristolville to replace 14 county septic systems at a cost of $223,150.
County officials said $180,000 of that amount is coming from federal stimulus money.
Julie Green, grants coordinator for the county’s planning commission, said the systems will cost between $15,000 and $20,000 each. Construction and other steps must be completed by Nov. 15.
The county qualified for $180,000 and had to provide a 25-percent share — $60,000. The benefiting property owners will have to repay the local share — 25 percent of the cost of their septic system — over time through their property taxes, Green said.

Hope that they don't increase homeowners property taxes to put in this septic at 25% means the people who live in these counties may lose their homes so that they can build and construct either business district or new housing which should be stopped now by making sure these owners keep their homes by making the amount they have to pay only 5% of their property taxes or find another way to pay for the new septic systems.
