Sewer Project Plans Hit Practical Hurdle Near Bowling Alley
The Union Sewer and Disposal Authority heard that a proposed sewer line to serve commercial developments along US 429 would drop four feet over 5,800 feet from a bowling alley to the city sewer on Sampson Street, making the plan impractical without a pump. Anthony Conn and Henry Petroni seek to build a motel and restaurant with on-site disposal and possible future additions along an 800 foot front. Conn cited state board approval and a projected $25,000 disposal plant, with revisions to Consoer Townsend and Associates plans. The authority will study financing with CT&A and a Pittsburgh bonding firm presence planned for Tuesday’s meeting.
