Ted Hladky, Hladky Holdings Ltd., Re: Development Agreement

Mr. Hladky introduced John Pelletier as a spokesperson, Patrick Pulak of the City of Brandon and Phil Dorn of Samson Engineering.

Mr. Hladky presented information on the FAST Sewage Wastewater system. Mr. Hladky indicated that they no longer proposed a communal holding tank and have returned to private septic disposal systems for each lot. The FAST system would be installed at each household within the development and individual homeowners would be responsible for pumping and disposal of onsite waste.

Mr. Pulak offered clarification that the City of Brandon will accept partially treated wastewater from the Prosperity Acres Development and he indicated that the FAST onsite wastewater system would satisfy this requirement.
