Make the connection with Cape Cod 5
Communities across the Cape, Islands and Southeastern Massachusetts have initiated projects to transition home wastewater management from septic to municipal sewer systems and switch water sources from well to public.
Cape Cod 5 supports efforts to improve infrastructure and protect our environment. We also recognize that these initiatives can result in significant costs to homeowners. That's why we're offering a Sewer or Water Connection Loan to qualifying homeowners at competitive rates. Just one more way that Cape Cod 5 is leading the way supporting homeowners in our region.
