SEWER

Ramona has its own sewer system and all buildings within city limits must be connected to the sewer system, unless buildings are not in use and the sewer has been capped (and capping has been approved by City Council).  The city’s sewer ponds are located northeast of Ramona on Quail Creek Rd.
 
FEES
Existing residence:  $10/month, paid twice a year in April & October (the City Clerk issues a bill). You also have the option to pay once a year in October or pay monthly. If you’re just moving into a residence, the sewer fees begin the month you move in. (The only exception to this is if there are delinquent sewer fees on a property—the new owner is responsible for all unpaid sewer fees.)

New construction:  $25 fee for hook-up, and a $500 deposit is given to the City of Ramona and held until you have a plumber hook up your sewer.  If there are no damages to the city system, the  $500 check is returned.  Thereafter, the $10/month fee applies.
