Residents Seek Signatures to Form Payson Sanitary District
About 40 percent of the 300 signatures needed to form a Payson Sanitary District improvement district in Payson Ranchos have been collected. Sponsor Charles Simon said 115 signatures are gathered of 576 property owners, with 51 percent required. District aims to access federal funds for a main trunk line connecting the subdivision to the existing system and serving Payson North units and Airpark, to address sanitation issues including surface effluent from septic tanks and potential hepatitis outbreaks.
