I purchased a lot in West Virginia. At the time of purchase I was under the assumption that it had access to Public Sewage, since it is in the city limits and the town has public sewage. Preparing to build I found out that the only access to public sewage would be gravity fed at the property line on the neighbors property below my lot. I contacted the person that owns the property and he does not want any lines going through his property. He also told me that anything I do on my property with impact his since it all slopes downhill. In a nut shell he doesnt want me to build above him. Subsequently I contacted the WV Public Service Commission which initially told me that I had a legal right to public sewage. The WV PSC inquired with WV American Water about an extension. The results came back that it was between me and the land owner below me to work something out. In this area I must have at least 2 acres to put in a septic tank which I dont have. So currently I am making payments for a lot that I cant use.
Any help would be appreciated.
