Tamworth council approved a 38-home project using on-site sewers, bypassing municipal links to save $478K, shifting $665K in costs and risks to homeowners despite health and maintenance concerns.
Tamworth Regional Council approved a 38-home development using on-site sewer systems instead of connecting to the municipal network, defying staff recommendations and its own policies.
The decision, driven by neighbor opposition to a proposed easement and aimed at saving $478,590 in connection fees, shifts $665,000 in system costs and annual maintenance fees to homeowners.
Despite the development’s proximity to existing sewers, council members remain divided over long-term risks, including potential public health concerns from system failures, odors, and maintenance challenges.
