Impact analysis
Condemnation would force Manor to find a costlier alternative site; no county expenditure was authorized.
If no condemnation, Manor's 23,500 residents and planned 14,400 housing units keep their wastewater capacity.
Manor residents could lose wastewater capacity and face higher costs if the county proceeds with condemnation.
