There is hereby levied and assessed upon each lot, parcel of
land, building, premises, or unit having a connection with the wastewater
treatment facility, a sewer service charge, based upon the quantity
of wastewater discharged, pursuant to Wis. Stats. § 66.0821.
Such sewer service charges shall be billed to the person owning, using,
or occupying the property served. The sewer service charges shall
consist of a fixed charge and a variable charge as set forth in the
following sections.
The fixed charge shall be a minimum charge for all users based
upon the number of residential user equivalents connected to the wastewater
treatment facility. The size of the equivalent meter will determine
the number of residential meter equivalents as shown in the table
below. The residential meter equivalent will be evaluated by using
the standard residential user equivalent for equivalent numbers of
users. This charge includes the debt service retirement costs.

Each user will be billed on the volume and strength of wastewater discharged to the wastewater treatment facility. Normal domestic-strength wastewater, as defined in §
282-3, will be billed upon a volume charge based upon the quantity of flow determined pursuant to this article. Users who discharge wastewater into the wastewater treatment facility shall be subject to surcharges, in addition to the volume charge, if their wastewater has a concentration greater than the domestic concentration specified in the preceding sentence. The amount of such surcharges shall reflect the costs incurred by the Village from the wastewater.
A. Normal domestic-strength wastewater volume charge (metered user):
price per 1,000 gallons as calculated in Schedule 9 on file with the
Village Clerk/Treasurer.
B. Sewage of greater than normal domestic strength. Charges to users
discharging wastewater greater than normal domestic strength shall
be computed in accordance with the formula presented below:
|
C = (V x $D) + 0.00834(V)[(B x $B) + (S x $S)]
|
|
Where:
|
|
C
|
=
|
Charge to sewer user for operation, maintenance, and replacement
costs for wastewater treatment facility
|
|
V
|
=
|
Wastewater volume in 1,000 gallons
|
|
$D
|
=
|
Price for total variable charge per 1,000 gallons normal domestic-strength
wastewater as shown in Schedule 9
|
|
B
|
=
|
Concentration of BOD above the normal domestic strength in mg/l
|
|
$B
|
=
|
Price per pound of BOD as shown in Schedule 9
|
|
S
|
=
|
Concentration of suspended solids (SS) above the normal domestic
strength in mg/l
|
|
$S
|
=
|
Price per pound of SS as shown in Schedule 9
|
|
0.00834
|
=

D. Septage tank waste disposal charges. Charges to licensed dischargers
shall be computed and assessed on the charge as shown in Schedule
