Pursuant to Chapter 303 of the Acts of 1990, an account to be
known as the "Town Water/Sewer Rehabilitation Fund" is established
for the purposes of providing revenue for the funding of engineering,
testing, construction and rehabilitation of the water and sewage pipes,
lines, facilities and systems located within the Town and to provide
revenues to do all things necessary to correct, remedy, repair, prevent
and prohibit any and all forms of infiltration or inflow from groundwater
and other sources of water into pipes, lines, facilities and systems.
A one-time fee shall be paid by applicants for building permits
for the construction, erection, improvement, reuse or rehabilitation
of land or buildings thereon for industrial, commercial, multifamily
and residential uses in the amount of $2 per gallon of estimated daily
water use and $2 per gallon for estimated daily sewer use for new
usage or additional usage for existing permits. The estimated daily
water usage and the estimated daily sewer usage shall be calculated
based upon the criteria established in 310 CMR 15.203, System Sewage
Flow Design Criteria.
