Q

Yes. Ramsey City Code requires a septic compliance inspection at every property transfer, and non-compliant systems generally must be fixed within 12 months.

Source: City of Ramsey, Septic Systems

Q

Why did my toilet gurgle when the city cleaned the sewer?

Ramsey jets its sewer mains on a three-year cycle, and the city notes that can make toilets flush or gurgle. If gurgling continues after the crew is gone, the cause is in your own drain or vent.
