“In the past, property owners who paid into AD-604 were charged a capacity fee for new connections that excluded AD-604 assets to ensure they were not charged twice for the same assets.”
“Mr. Korn stated the next steps would be publishing the Ordinance within 10 days of adoption, staff will continue outreach to members of the community, new fees would take effect May 8, 2022, and capacity fees would be adjusted annually every July 1st by the ENRCCI index as stated in the original Ordinance.”
