[Added 10-22-2015 by Res.
No. 15-10-003]
A.
If any improved property is found by the Authority to be connected
to the sewer system but is not on the Authority records as being a
customer, the user shall be required to do the following:
(1)
Apply for and obtain a sewer connection permit under Chapter 100 of these Rules and Regulations; and
(2)
Pay all applicable charges, rates and fees under Chapter 30 of these rules and regulations. Charges shall include the following:
(a)
One hundred percent of all current fees and charges for all
applicable review, permit and inspection fees outlined in Appendix
BA.
(b)
One hundred percent of all current fees and charges of all applicable
tapping, connection and special facilities fees. There shall not be
charged a reservation of capacity fee.
(c)
One hundred percent of all quarterly or flat rates outlined
in Appendix BC.
B.
Back-billing for quarterly or flat rates: Because the owner of the
improved property enjoyed the benefit of the sewer system for the
duration of the time it was connected to the sewer system, and because
the Authority incurred costs as a result of such use during the duration
of time the improved property was connected, the Authority shall back-bill
the current owner of the improved property and issue a statement of
charges to the owner for such use. The charges for quarterly or flat
rates shall be retroactive to the date at which the improved property
connected to the sewer system, with the following exceptions:
C.
The Authority may provide a payment plan to the user for the charges
declared pursuant to this section.
D.
The back-billing amount shall be based on the rates in effect at
the time of the usage over the back-billing period.
E.
There shall be no penalty or interest applied to the back-bill, provided
the back-billed amounts when invoiced are paid within the deadline
set forth on the statement of charges.
