BUILDING A NEW HOME

If you’re building a new home in a neighborhood without a sewer—which is most of Vashon, except where Vashon Sewer District operates—you will need to establish a water source and find out what type of septic is feasible given your soil characteristics, lot size, any nearby sensitive environmental areas, and house size. Consult a septic designer.
