Aside from connecting to the system, it's likely the RM would either have to pay the City of Winnipeg to utilize capacity in the City's water and wastewater facilities, or the RM would have to build their own facilities. I'm guessing that the RMs don't want to build their own facilities given the costs associated, so utilizing City capacity would be my guess, but the City has very limited capacity right now.
Also, building regional roads through subdivisions would also be expensive as there doesn't seem to be any in that area aside from Mcgillvary.
