Justification

The Madison County Sewer District (the "Sewer District") was originally established in the early 1970's and at that time was comprised of the entire Village of Cazenovia and parts of the Town of Cazenovia, later adding parts of the Town of Nelson. In the mid-1970's, the Village of Cazenovia sold its main line interceptors to Madison County, to be operated and maintained by the Sewer District. The wastewater treatment facility was constructed in 1975 and began treatment for wastewater in 1977.

The Sewer District main trunk line interceptor sewers were located within the boundaries of the Town of Cazenovia, the Village of Cazenovia and the Town of Nelson. It was determined by the Madison County Board of Supervisors that the County of Madison should transfer the ownership, administration and operation of the Madison County Sewer District Treatment Plant and the corresponding Sewerage System. After careful thought and consideration it was determined by the County of Madison, Town of Cazenovia, Village of Cazenovia, and Town of Nelson that the assets of the Sewer District, including the Madison County Sewer District Treatment Plant, main trunk lines and appurtenances should be transferred to the Town of Cazenovia.

In order to accomplish the lawful and efficient dissolution and transfer of the Madison County Sewer District, the County of Madison, Town of Cazenovia, Village of Cazenovia and Town of Nelson is seeking this special legislation to effectuate the dissolution and transfer.
