A.
Applicability Of Fees And Charges:
1.
Benefited Properties: Wherever sewers are or have been built within
the City and adjacent to benefited property that does not pay a share
of the original cost at time of installation of the sewer, then such
adjacent benefited property will be required to pay to the City its
prorated share of the cost at the time of connection to the sewer.
To the extent Subsections A2 and D of this section are applicable,
the same shall be controlling and shall take precedence over the requirement
under this Subsection A1 that the entire pro rata share of the cost
of installation of the sewer be paid at time of connection to the
City sewage collection system.
2.
Trunk Line Sanitary Sewers: Any person, firm, corporation or agency whatsoever who or which shall be allowed to tap into any of the sewer mains designated in Subsection C of this section shall pay (separate and apart from any other charges) tap-on, hookup, and construction fees and charges at the rate hereinafter established. To the extent Subsection D of this section is applicable, the same shall be controlling and shall take precedence over the requirement under this Subsection A2 that the entire tap-on, hookup, or construction fee or charge be paid at or prior to time of connection to the City sewage collection system.

Payment Of Fees And Charges; Sewer User's Fee:
1.
In lieu of a lump sum or flat fee amount to be paid on or before the time of any tap or connection made into the City sewage collection system for any of the described lots not already connected to the City sewage collection system, as set forth under Subsection C of this section, any owner of any of the said designated lots, whether a house exists on such lot or not at this time, may, until 4:30 p.m. on Monday, March 31, 1997, deposit two signed copies of a contract in that form as set forth in exhibit A, attached to ordinance 704 on file in the office of the City Clerk and incorporated herein by reference, with the City Clerk, receiving a receipt from the City Clerk stating that the contracts and copy were delivered on a certain date, at a certain time. After the contracts have been fully signed by the lot owners and by the City, one signed copy will be returned to the lot owner and the other signed copy will be recorded, at the City's expense, and that copy will then be retained by the City. The owner of such lot shall pay the sewer construction fee (as well as the tap on and inspection fees) in accordance with the contract. When the payments have been made in full and the house on the lot has been connected to the City sewage collection system, the City will, at the request of the lot owner, prepare and deliver a release or other document evidencing the completion of the contract on the part of the lot owner, such release or other document to be recorded (at the lot owner's expense).
2.
Any owner of any of the previously designated lots, whether a house
exists on such lot or not at this time, may, until 4:30 p.m. on Friday,
September 26, 1997, deposit two signed copies of a contract in that
form as set forth in exhibit A, attached to ordinance 704 on file
in the office of the City Clerk and incorporated herein by reference,
with the City Clerk, receiving a receipt from the City Clerk stating
that the contract and copy were delivered on a certain date, at a
certain time, and depositing with the City Clerk an amount of money
equal to the monthly payments that would have been billed beginning
April 1997 under the installment payment arrangement as set forth
in the aforesaid contract and as described herein. It is the intention
of the City Council that a grace period shall be established from
March 31, 1997, through and including 4:30 p.m. on September 26, 1997,
during which grace period any owner of any lot previously described
herein shall have the opportunity, upon payment of those payments
that would have been billed had the owner filed his contract with
the City on or before March 31, 1997, to enter into this installment
arrangement with the City.
3.
For any person who becomes the owner of any of the previously designated
lots after March 31, 1997, such owners shall have the right, for three
months from the date of conveyance of the lot to the new owner, or
from the date possession was granted in the event purchase of the
lot is made by an installment contract, to deposit two signed copies
of a contract in that form as set forth in exhibit A, attached to
ordinance 704 on file in the office of the City Clerk and incorporated
herein by reference, with the City Clerk, receiving a receipt from
the City Clerk stating the contract and copy were delivered on a certain
date, at a certain time, and depositing with the City Clerk an amount
of money equal to the monthly payments that would have been billed
beginning April 1997 under the installment payment arrangement as
set forth in the aforesaid contract and as described in this section.
Further, as proof of the date of conveyance of title to the lot, or
of the date possession was granted under an installment sale contract,
the owner or buyer shall, at the time of depositing the contract and
copy with the City Clerk, produce and make available to the Clerk,
for copying, the original deed or an original, or copy of the original,
installment sale contract bearing original signatures.
4.
Beginning April 1, 2005, any house on any of the lots described in Subsection C of this section not connected to the City sewage collection system shall be billed a monthly sewer user's fee at the regular rate designated by City ordinance, said fee being calculated based on metered water use for the residence. Any house connected to the City sewage collection system prior to April 1, 2005, shall be billed the monthly sewer user's fee beginning at time of connection to the collection system.
5.
Owners of vacant lots shall be allowed to participate in the voluntary
installment payment plan. At the conclusion of the eight year period
for making the installment payments, should there still be no structure
on the premises, the lot owner shall not be required to make any other
payment (such as a sewer user's fee) until such time as improvements
have been constructed upon the lot and a connection made to the City
sewage collection system for the improvements on the lot.
6.
Any owner of any lot designated in Subsection C of this section, which lot shall not be connected to the City sewage collection system by March 31, 1997, but as to which lot the City has received the sewer construction fee, shall not be required to pay the sewer user's fee until April 1, 2005, or when the house on the lot is connected to the City sewage collection system, whichever occurs first. The owner of any such lot shall be required to enter into the contract as described in Subsection D1 of this section, and the payments due under said contract for the sewer construction fee shall be noted in the City's records as fully paid.
7.
All funds paid under the voluntary payment plan shall be set aside
and used for completion of the City's sewage collection system in
golden eagle estates subdivision until the same has been completed;
any then remaining funds shall be available for use of the general
sewer department of the City.
[Amended by Ord. 704, 11-4-1996]
E.
Conditions Of Connection To Sewer System: It is a condition precedent
to the allowance of any tap that the tap on charge as herein established
shall be paid to the City, and it is further a requirement that anyone
making such tap on abide by all other ordinances and regulations of
the City. Payment of the fees required to permit a tap does not in
any way eliminate the necessity for obedience to the requirements
of this section and all other ordinances of the City pertaining to
sewer taps and use of the City sewer system.
F.
Disposition Of Revenues: The revenues received by the City from the
sewer tap on fee shall be used by the City for its general corporate
purposes, with primary application thereat being made to the necessary
expansion of the works of the sewage collection system to meet the
requirements of new or additional users thereof, including payment
of construction costs for extensions of the system, and for the payment
of bonds or other borrowed funds, when the proceeds of said bonds
or other borrowed funds were used for construction of extensions or
other major improvements of the City sewage collection system.
[Ord. 97, 6-4-1979; amended by 2003 Code; Ord. 10-02-04-41, 12-1-2010; Ord. 12-06-01-41, 6-4-2012]
A.
Basis For Wastewater Service Charges:
1.
The wastewater service charge for the use of and for service supplied
by the wastewater facilities of the City shall consist of a basic
user charge for operation and maintenance plus replacement, and a
surcharge, if applicable. The user charge shall be based on water
usage as recorded by water meters for normal waste having the following
strength:
2.
Water meter readings shall be assumed to equal sewage flow except
in cases where the user may show that water passed through the meter
is not returned to the sewer. An adjustment in meter readings may
be made in such cases if the user furnishes the City a meter reading
of water flow not discharged to the sewer. The user charge shall consist
of operation and maintenance costs plus replacement and shall be computed
as follows:
a.
Estimate the projected annual revenue required to operate and maintain
the wastewater facilities including a replacement fund for the year.
b.
Estimate wastewater volume discharged to the sewer system based on
total water meter readings after appropriate adjustment for water
not returned to the sewer and/or water from unmetered private sources
which is discharged to the sewer system.
c.
Compute costs per 1,000 gallons for normal sewage strength wastes.
3.
A surcharge will be levied to all users whose waters exceed the normal concentrations for BOD (200 mg/l) and SS (250 mg/l). The surcharge will be based on water usage as recorded by water meters and/or sewage meters for all wastes which exceed the 200 mg/l and 250 mg/l concentration for BOD and SS respectively. Subsection C of this section specifies the procedure to compute a surcharge. The adequacy of wastewater service charge shall be reviewed annually by certified public accountants for the City in their annual audit report. The wastewater service charge shall be revised periodically to reflect a change in operation and maintenance costs, including replacement costs, and adjusted as required. One of the purposes of the annual review shall be to maintain service charges in relation to cost and assure that all classes of users are being charged their equitable share.
B.
Additional Metering Of Water Usage:
1.
Residential use customers desiring to have a portion of the water usage measured for their premises exempted from the user charge for wastewater services for the months encompassed by the May meter reading through the October meter reading, as provided in Subsection A of this section, shall make written application for the "outside (nonsewer) water usage program" (hereafter "nonsewer program") upon printed blanks to be furnished by the Clerk and signed by the applicant or his authorized agent; provided, no such application will be accepted by the City unless signed by the owner of the premises. An annual fee of $100, not to be prorated in any manner, shall be collected upon filing of the application. All relief granted under the nonsewer program will be prospective and implemented as soon as reasonably possible. In no circumstance will any customer be entitled to any retroactive recalculation of charges. Application for participation in the nonsewer program and payment of the fee is required annually.
2.
For each customer accepted into the nonsewer program, the City will
average the water use for that customer using the meter readings from
the months of November through April of the year preceding the participation
in the nonsewer program. The calculated average will constitute a
"not to exceed" cap ("the cap") for purposes of calculating the monthly
charge for wastewater services during participation in the nonsewer
program. For charges calculated upon the meter readings in May, June,
July, August, September and October, customers participating in the
nonsewer program will be charged standard charges for wastewater services
up to, but not exceeding, the cap for those months in which the customer
is a participant.
C.
Measurement Of Flow: The volume of flow used for computing basic
user charges and surcharges shall be the metered water consumption
read to the lowest even increments of 100 gallons.
1.
If the person discharging wastes into the public sewers procures
any part, or all of his water from sources other than the City, all
or a part of which is discharged into the public sewers, the person
shall install and maintain at his expense, water meters of a type
approved by the superintendent for the purpose of determining the
volume of water obtained from these other sources.
2.
Devices for measuring the volume of waste discharged to the sanitary
sewer may be required by the City Council if these volumes cannot
otherwise be determined from the metered water consumption records.
3.
Devices for measuring the volume of waste not discharged to the sanitary
sewer may be required by the superintendent if reasonable estimates
cannot be made for adjusting water meter readings.
4.
Metering devices for determining the volume of waste shall be installed,
owned, and maintained by the person. Following approval and installation,
such meters may not be removed, unless service is canceled, without
the consent of the City Council.
D.
