Yeah, that's the only way I can figure it. I was once a City Councilperson in an Oakland County community, and we were looking at various infrastructure projects far less costly than developing a new suburban water system. From that I can say with certainty that to build a new water and sewer system for OC and MC is going to be so expensive as to be completely infeasible. A few mill down the drain to demonstrate that is a drop in the bucket and provides cover for unpopular decisions later.
