The first and most favorable assessment category are those areas presently being served by sanitary sewer service. There are seven general areas presently being served. The largest area is northeast of the City and is commonly referred to as the Clay Utilities. It includes a section along U.S. 33 extending north from Cleveland Road to Darden Road and then east along Darden Road to Juniper Road. At this point, the sanitary sewer then extends east and northeast towards Hickory Road where parts of the Georgetown, Carriage Hills and Farmington Square subdivisions are sewered. Other smaller areas that are sewered are University of Notre Dame/St. Mary's College/Holy Cross Junior College, River Commons subdivision and Healthwin Hospital along the east side of the St. Joseph River south of Auten Road; north side of the Toll Road at Olive Road; south side of the U.S. 20/31 Bypass along U.S. 31; Douglas Road east of Ironwood Road; north side of S.R. 23 at Ironwood Road; and an area off of Mayflower Road just south of Western Avenue. The second assessment category has trunk sewers nearby and would only require the extension of lateral sewers. There are few areas that meet this criteria. The two largest areas are University of Notre Dame/St. Mary's College/Holy Cross Junior College and an area south of Brick Road between the U.S. 31 Bypass and St. Joseph River. Other smaller areas are located in the vicinity of the Ireland Road/Ironwood Road, Mayflower Road/Sample Street and S.R. 23/Douglas Road intersections. It should be pointed out that some unidentified, yet probably minor, extension to the Clay Utilities sanitary sewer could be performed. A detailed system analysis would be required to identify potential expansion or extension of this portion of the study area. Most of unsewered Clay Township will fall under assessment categories 3 or 4, as described below. The third assessment category has trunk sanitary sewers but is in need of sub -trunks and laterals. There are two large areas that meet this criteria. The first extends west from the corporate limits to the western study area boundary generally located between Filmore Road/Early Road and Darden Road. This area has access to the I/N Tek and I/N Kote trunk sewers. The second major area is located south and southeast of the City, extending from just west of U.S. 31, eastward past Ironwood Road, and then north to Inwood Road. This area has access to the Gilmer Extension of the Bowman Trunk and the Ironwood South Trunk. A final small area that meets this criteria is located along S.R. 23 on the north side of the U.S. 20/31 Bypass. 35
