Septic Tank Elimination Program

To address health hazards in our neighborhoods, the city is moving forward to convert many neighborhoods on septic systems to the city sewer system. Under the Septic Tank Elimination Program (STEP), the 18,000 high-priority homes will be taken off septic systems and connected to city sewers during the next 20 years.

To help fund STEP, the City-County Council approved a rate increase that will pay for all sewer construction in the public right-of-way. Property owners remain responsible for sewer connection costs on their property.
