Redwood City Sanitary Sewer Master Plan Executive Summary <br /> FINAL <br /> <br />August 2008 7 <br />requires testing or inspection and rehabilitation, if necessary, of the lateral at sale or transfer of the <br />property. Such programs have been adopted by a number of Bay Area communities, including <br />Burlingame, Alameda, Albany, and Berkeley. Similarly, the City could also consider requiring property <br />owners to test/inspect their sewer laterals whenever a public sewer main project is scheduled on their <br />street, and repair or replace the lateral if it fails the test. The City could ease the burden on these property <br />owners, financial or otherwise, by arranging to contract for the lateral work through the sewer main <br />construction contractor, or through implementation of a grant or low interest loan program that provides <br />for financial assistance for lateral rehabilitation. <br /> <br />This Master Plan is intended to be a working document to be refined and updated as additional data and <br />new planning information becomes available. The Master Plan should be updated whenever there are <br />major changes in planning assumptions or, at a minimum, every five years. <br /> <br /> <br />6.2.A. - Page 223
