MEMO <br /> <br />TO: <br /> <br />Lloyd Schnelle, City Administrator <br /> <br />FROM: <br /> <br />Peter Raatikka, City Engineer <br /> <br />DATE: <br /> <br />March 14, 1984 <br /> <br />RE: <br /> <br />Residential Equivalent Charge (REC) <br /> <br />As requested at the special workshop meeting on March 5, 1984, I <br />have reviewed the trunk assessment policies for numerous cities. <br />A majority of the cities I reviewed assessed the trunks on an acre <br />basis. Therefore, the higher the density, the lower the REC. <br /> <br />The cities which assess trunk cost on a REC basis give a reduction <br />to multiple housing. Maple Grove and Champlin give a twenty <br />percent (20%) reduction and Worthington gives a twenty-five <br />percent (25%) reduction. These reductions are consistent with the <br />Metropolitan Waste Control Commission's (MWCC) policy on assessing <br />service availability charges (SAC). They provide a reduction of <br />twenty percent (20%) on apartments and twenty-five percent (25%) <br />on subsidized housing. <br /> <br />Attached with this memo, I have included a Summary of Area <br />Assessment Practices Sanitary Sewer and MWCC's Policy III on <br />computation of units. <br /> <br /> <br />
