Laterals

Our inspector Pat Bucklein is out and about the project daily. As the contractor prepares to install pipe on a street Pat makes every effort to contact homeowners to double check on the location for the service connection lateral. He tells me he is now getting requests for second laterals on some properties. You may want to reinforce the point that asking for a second lateral does not mean a property can automatically divide. Only the County Planning Department can make that determination.
