Sewer extension protested
area, which would be in
violation of eight state
Land Conservation and
Development Commission
goals
She said the land could be
better utilized for such uses
as agriculture In the past a
large farm , where silver
foxes were raised, was
situated in this area
“ Cedar Ridge historical
ly is an agricultural area,"
said Normand. “The soils
are class one through four
The land is suitable for far
ming."
Normand also said the
area could be better used
for timber production in
stead of development
She said that allowing the
extension of the sewer line,
and the co n sequ en tial
development that would oc-
cur, there w ill be “ a
senous and detrimental ef
fect on fish and wildlife
resources and water quali*
In addition, Normand
said there are “serious
q uestion s'* as to the
suitability of the area for
alternatives to developing
this area haven t been ex
plored
These include
allowing residents in the
area between Arrah Wanna
and Wildwood to hook up
instead of “jumping over
the area and going to Cedar
development
“ There are potential
hazards from flooding, ero
sion and siltation (of the
Sandy and Salmon Rivers I,
as well as mudslide poten
tial in this area as a conse
quence of development,
said Normand
“ Those issues have not
been addressed (and» ap
propriate safeguards have
not been adopted "
N o rm an d said when
representatives from the
county went before the
Land Conservation and
Development Commission
in December they claimed
that unless the Cedar Ridge
area is allowed to be
developed “their existing
investment in the sewer
plant would be lost '
“ If there was a bad in
vestment or a gamble
m ade, p a rtic u la rly on
fed eral funding which
m ig h t
(h a v e )
been
available," said Normand,
there is no reason to put
bad money a fte r bad
money."
Normand said that other
Ridge first."
One member of the com
mission said that Normand
and her clients are 25 mon
ths too late in bringing up
these issues in an attempt
to challenge the expansion
Normand disagreed, and
said, “ The commission had
a responsibility to consider
all these issues in a request
for an extraterritorial ex
pansion ’’
She sa id th a t ju s t
because there has been an
annexation into the service
district that it does not
necessarily mean Cedar
Ridge was meeting all the
requirements.
In respect to the public's
interests and rights per
ta in in g
to
n a tu r a l
resources, Normand said
that the extension of the
sewer line would be in
violation of the public trust,
which is a constitutional
right
Any development would
have a serious impact on
these resources since land
use policies and goals
would be violated, said
Normand
Bob
S te v e n s ,
a
homeowner in the area,
testified that they had
fought against the original
Cedar Ridge development,
which was proposed ten
years ago and defeated
a f t e r going to g re a t
lengths
Stevens said that when
he and others heard about
the sewer district they
were informed there was
going to be a vote of the
people The county later in
formed them that they
could not vote since they
were not within the boun
daries
“ Well low and behold I
find out only nine months
ago that Cedar Ridge has
been annexed and we were
not notified,” said Stevens.

“ 1 have 60U and some feet
of frontage on the Cedar
Ridge area and had no
notification what-so-ever
“ I th in k som etim es
things are done to circum
vent public input and that 's
why we re here tonight,”
said Stevens " It may be ex
post facto but all of our in
formation is relevant."
The commissioners ob
jected to the oral testimony
of the opponents, claiming
that it did not pertain
specifically to the sewer
line extension
The commission did ac
cept, however, w ritten
testim ony but did not
re v ie w th e m a te r ia ls
before voting 10 to one in
favor of extending the line
Neither MACC members
nor their attorney would
comment about whether
they will appeal the com
mission's decision before
the Land Use Board of Ap
peals or if any other legal
action would be taken in
the near future.
