Increased rates of I&I are typically experienced in areas with older wastewater infrastructure, especially <br />sewer service laterals constructed from clay pipe. Due to changes in the MN Plumbing Code and the <br />history of building practices and materials, it is understood that clay tile pipe is more likely to exist for <br />sewer service laterals constructed prior to 1970. Up to ten (10) eligibility points will be awarded for age <br />of housing in the proposed Project Area that was constructed prior to 1970, at a rate of one (1) point for <br />every 5%. The proposed project area should include at least 100 properties, which may include a <br />control group for comparison of results. <br />FINANCIAL NEED (10 points) <br />The Proposal should document the financial need of the Project Area within the community, based on <br />median home values. Ten (10) eligibility points will be awarded for a proposed Project Area with <br />median home value less than the community median home value. The proposal must include the <br />source and values used for the community and proposed Project Area, but the individual home values <br />do not need to be included. <br />Page - 4 1 July 9, 2018 1 METROPOLITAN COUNCIL <br />
