NORWICH — The Norwich Planning Commission has endorsed a proposal to seek state funds for a study exploring whether it’s feasible to extend sewer lines into the village.
The study would assess the need, demand and potential costs of building a “wastewater solution for the village center,” according to a resolution adopted by the commission last week.
That charge includes determining whether to build sewer lines from Hartford to the Marion Cross School, which is seeking alternatives to a failed septic system that runs under the Norwich Green.
The study also should “look at alternative wastewater solutions,” survey Norwich residents on their concerns and identify potential solutions, according to the resolution, which was supported by five members of the Planning Commission.
