Private Sewer Lateral (PSL) Information

Water Works Engineers and Express Sewer will begin work in late 2023 on the HOA’s sewer system in accordance with the East Bay Municipal Utility District’s Private Sewer Lateral Program. Please refer to https://www.eastbaypsl.com/ for more information.

To view the schedule, construction status, and work to be done for each address please click below for more information:

The work will consist of repair, rehabilitation, and/or replacement of sewer system infrastructure within the HOA including gravity sewer mains and manholes located in the streets as well as connecting laterals and cleanouts for each address which are generally located in driveways and landscaping.

Residents can expect various temporary construction impacts including:

  • Limited access
  • Water service interruptions
  • Periodic traffic closures and detours
  • Noise, odors, and vibrations for short durations

In order to minimize impact to residents, the work has been subdivided into zones. Each zone will be notified in advance of anticipated scheduling. Residents will be asked the day of work at their address to reduce water use. Notification will consist of:

  • 3 and 1 week notices
  • Day before and day of door knocks

Please continue normal garbage schedule, the project team will ensure continued collection despite impacts. Residents will be asked to relocate any personal property located in the vicinity of the sewer lateral and cleanout if needed to complete the work in subsequent zone notices.

Association Maintenance Responsibility

The Association owns responsibility for the common area (by grant deed). Each homeowner in a planned community has a responsibility to maintain his own yard, including the front court yard in accordance with the governing documents, which specify that the Owner maintain his lot in good condition and repair commensurate with the high standards of quality established for the community. Consult the Costa Brava Architectural Guidelines and related documents below for more details. The Association also is responsible for the maintenance of the common areas (pool, parks and playground equipment, etc.) within the community. Members are assessed by the Association to fund insurance, maintenance, operations and reserves.
