Lake Elmo <br />Agenda Section: Planning, Land Use and Zoning <br />No. 9F <br />City Council <br />August 15, 2006 <br />Agenda Item: Lateral Water Main Charge Ordinance/Ordinance Establishing Lateral Water Charges <br />Background Information for August 15, 2006: <br />Staff has revisited Chapter 600 of the City Code to "clean up" Code language regarding the distinction <br />between WAC (trunk) water charges and Lateral (frontage) water charges/assessments. As 600.06 currently <br />reads, the trunk and lateral distinction is unclear, rendering Chapter 600.06 internally contradictory and <br />confusing. A draft Ordinance is attached that cleans up the Chapter 600 language. <br />A second ordinance is attached that establishes the water lateral charge per service connection for the <br />Interconnect I (39t' to Tapestry) and Interconnect lI (Tapestry to Jamaca Public Works) projects. These will <br />be the lateral charges payable for each service connection to City water along those routes at such time as a <br />property owner desires connection to City water. The property owner will also pay a WAC (trunk) charge, <br />currently $3,500 per connection, or SAC unit (for non-residential property). Both the lateral charge and the <br />WAC charge will escalate periodically reflecting the City's project financing costs. <br />Person responsible: <br />Action items: 1­1 C <br />i <br />j <br />a-'Iner <br />Motion to adopt Ordinance #97- amending Chapter 600 of �h City <br />City <br />Code regarding charges for connection to City water. <br />Motion to adopt Ordinance #97- establishing lateral charges for <br />City Water Interconnect Projects I and H. <br />Attachments: v-) � <br />Time Allocated: <br />1.
