Andover sewer & Anoka County programs

Anoka County septic and well loan programs — and the county's 400+ mile road network Andover sits on

Anoka County runs two important funding programs for homeowners: an AgBMP well/septic loan and a Conservation District SSTS Fix-Up Grant. Most relevant to Andover homeowners on well/septic systems — but useful background for anyone dealing with property-transition drain diagnostics.

Anoka County offers an AgBMP loan up to $100,000 at 3% interest, a 90% / 80% SSTS grant tier structure, and maintains 400+ mi of county roads per year.

Who handles what in Andover

Sewer service in Andover is handled by MCES (Metropolitan Council Environmental Services) — confirmed on official MCES "Communities We Serve" list. Here is who to call for what, plus the current ordinances that affect Andover homeowners.

Andover Public Works Department, Sanitary Sewer Division

Homeowner vs. city responsibility

Property owner responsible for clearing blockages (debris, tree roots) in the service line between the home and the city sanitary sewer main; city responsible for the main.

If you have a backup and are not sure whether it is on your side or the city's, we can put a camera down and confirm before anyone digs.

Inflow & Infiltration (I&I) rules

City's Sewer Use Ordinance (Ordinance 32, Sec.) prohibits certain discharges into sanitary sewer lines — general I&I-related prohibition, not a named dedicated I&I surcharge program.

If your city is running an I&I inspection, we can camera your sewer line, document the condition, and give you a report that satisfies municipal review.

Sump pump ordinance

Illegal to drain sump pump water into the basement sanitary sewer drain or laundry tub; sump pumps must discharge outside the house to yard/drain way that prevents water draining directly to the street.

📍 Local construction update

Crosstown/Constance Blvd roundabout going in + Round Lake Blvd signal work

What's happening in Andover right now

Two Anoka County projects are reshaping Andover this summer. First, a new roundabout is being built at Crosstown Boulevard and 161st Avenue/Constance Boulevard — a major intersection redesign that hit a big traffic switch on July 15, reopening the east side of the intersection under a new configuration. Second, the Round Lake Boulevard (CSAH 9) signal replacement project — from about 136th Avenue north through 145th Avenue — is essentially complete on the signals, and a separate pavement-preservation project along Round Lake Boulevard started July 13 with catch basin repair, asphalt removal, and concrete median work. Anoka County also has a second Andover roundabout in design for Round Lake Boulevard/Lake George Boulevard/181st Avenue with construction planned for 2028.

What this means for your drains

New roundabouts are one of the harder infrastructure projects on nearby homes. What we typically see when a roundabout replaces a signalized intersection:

  • Sanitary lateral disturbance — roundabouts require more excavation than the old intersection footprint. Homes on or immediately near the Crosstown/Constance corner have laterals that may have been in the excavation zone
  • Storm drainage rework — the new grading of the roundabout redirects surface water. Homes downhill from the intersection can see more runoff toward their foundations
  • Vibration damage during construction — old iron stacks in Andover homes built in the 1970s-80s crack when heavy equipment is close, and problems show up as slow drains or backups months later

If your Andover home is within a block or two of the Crosstown/Constance intersection, along Round Lake Blvd, or on the Hanson Blvd corridor, a fall camera inspection gives you a baseline before winter's freeze-thaw makes small cracks into big ones.

Call 612-382-7397 or book a camera inspection.
