you or someone else can provide a link to the audio or a summary of the discussion.
We all need to be informed of issues like these.

... I'm not surprised to hear the EPA thought the neighbors had city/county water and sewer. MSD and City/County plats show lines running where there are none and some not documented where they do exist. It's almost like when they drew the maps when that area was being developed they drew what they had proposed and then never followed up. I've had the same problem with properties in Royal Pines and some off Lower Christ School Road.

It's a real shame.
