$51-Million Sewer Project Unveiled
Still fielding a barrage of questions over noxious fumes emanating from an inadequate city pipeline, Oxnard officials have unveiled a $51-million sewer project meant to expand current capacity and satisfy future developments.
Oxnard residents won’t need to worry about backed-up sewage waste for the next 50 years once the new sewer is built, said Rob Roshanian, the city’s development services manager.
The new system could accommodate developments now being planned, officials said.
More than $30 million of the cost would come from developer fees. The remaining $20.9 million could be funded with 30-year revenue bonds to be repaid through user fees.
