(b) Where the size of the water lines required to
meet the ultimate requirements for the City is larger
than eight inches (8 ") and the total capacity is not
required to serve the tract of land to be developed,
the City may enter into a contract with the owner,
developer, or entity constructing the lines for reim-
bursement for the excess capacity as other users
request and are granted service. The developer or
entity requesting service from an existing line shall
pay a utility extension fee on a pro -rata basis, as
hereinafter set forth. The reimbursement to the
owner, developer, or entity who paid for the line
construction shall be made only from those utility
extension fees paid to the City by users of the
facility paid for by the said owner, developer, or
entity.
(c) The pro -rata basis for the utility extension fee
shall be computed based upon the projected capacity
in terms of dwelling units as specified by the engi-
neering criteria approved by the City Engineer. The
basis for cost shall be the actual total cost of the
facility which shall include, but shall not be lim-
ited to, construction costs, engineering costs and
inspection cost. The total cost shall be divided by
the projected capacity of dwelling units, to deter-
mine the base utility extension fee. The base utility
extension fee as determined above shall be increased
at the rate of five percent (5 %) per annum from the
date the lines are accepted by the City.
