The letter is dated january 2015Section62 said:
If the letter was before 1 October 2011 then it is possible they weren't public sewers on the date the letter was written, but became public on 1 October 2011.pieroabcd said:Oh, that's funny.
The sellers have found a letter from the water authority saying that no build over agreement was necessary because there are no public sewer pipes within 3 meters of the proposed extension.
Also, the extension was approved as lawful by the council as it is now, very large.
I imagine that it's good for me as a discharge of liabilities, but it's really curious that they say that there are no sewer pipes within 3 meters of the proposed extension, even though that drawing seems to suggest otherwise.
The manhole cover is 2 houses beyond.
If the OP buys the property they will still have public sewers underneath the extension, and more importantly for them, potentially their own connecting pipes being inaccessible.MikeJXE said:It's as much likely the water board don't know where they are
You're good to go so forget about it0
