Resolution 443

Establishes A Connection Charge For New Sewer Hookups

WHEREAS, since 1975, Bolinas Community Public Utility District customers with a connection to the sanitary sewer system have paid an annual charge of 137.42 for construction of the treatment facility; and

WHEREAS, since 1992, Bolinas Community Public Utility District customers with a connection to the sanitary sewer system have paid an annual charge of 59.28 for rehabilitation of the collection system; and

WHEREAS, it is deemed fair and proper that Bolinas Community Public Utility District customers who may make application to be connected to the sanitary sewer system in the future should pay their accumulated pro-rata share of the capital costs of constructing the treatment facility and rehabilitating the collection system; and

WHEREAS, Exhibit A to this resolution is a schedule of capital costs only, with an annual percentage rate of 5%, and does not include operations or maintenance expenses associated with the system; and

WHEREAS, establishment of a connection charge according to the schedule in Exhibit A is only one issue which must be addressed before the moratorium on new sewer connections can be lifted; and

WHEREAS, completion of a treatment facility capacity study, as recommended by the Regional Water Quality Control Board, in conjunction with correction of existing infiltration and inflow to the sanitary sewer system, and/or innovative and alternative projects which create treatment facility capacity, is necessary before further connections to the system can be permitted: now

THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the Board of Directors of the Bolinas Community Public Utility District, to hereby establish a Sewer Connection Charge, as shown on Exhibit A, which charge does not include the cost of labor and materials for installation of the sewer lateral and cleanouts.
