JULY 17, 2023 REGULAR BOARD MEETING 

The Sammamish Plateau Water and Sewer District Board received the results of petitions distributed for the potential Utility Local Improvement District (ULID) to install sewer in the Louis Thompson area. Based on the petition results it is clear that the Louis Thompson area does not support extension of the sewer into the area. On that basis, the Board directed District staff to stop work on the design of the sewer in Louis Thompson Road. The project will not proceed. The District’s design of the water main relocation in Louis Thompson Road in conjunction with the City’s project will continue.
