O~HER COSTS In addition to the assessed costs identified in the previous section, each property owner will incur various out-of-pocket costs when a residence is connected to the system. The City has a policy of requiring connection to an existing unit to eact~ utility system within two years of availability. A $1,250 Water Availability Charge (W.A.C.) is collected at the time of connection to defray the depreciation costs of the municipal water system. A $950 Sewer Availability Charge (S.A.C.) is collected at the time of connection by the City to be paid to the Metropolitan Waste Control Commission to defray the reserved capacity designed into treatment and transn'dssion facilities. A $192 fee is collected to cover the cost of the water meter, remote reader and installation. A quarterly charge of $8.25 will be made for the operation of the subdivision street lights. Finally, each property owner must pay the costs associated with extending the utilities from the right-of- way into their dwellings and abandonment of an existing on-site sewer system and well if it is no longer going to be used. These costs are highly variable depending on individual circumstances.
