Section 3 outlines the “line costs” fee requirement. Presently, the fee is @.OO per front-foot for the cost of installing the sewer, and as of March 1,1957, the fee will be raised to $4.00 ‘per front4oot. The $50.00 “capital contribution charge”, set forth in Section 8, is for sharing the cost of constructing the new sewage treatment plant. There are, in addition to the charges required by Ordinance No. 7020 cited above, two more fees which the property owner will be responsible for. These are: (1) Cost 6f laying a sewer luted from the sewer in the street to the prfbperty line. By contract agreement, with the City of Carlsibad, Mr. Loo Williams makes all seweyal lateral instal. ~s. This cost varies with each jab since depth and length of trench and resurfacing of the pavement are ifivolved. Mr. Williams reports that the cost generally has ranged from $60.00 to $160.00. (2) Cost of hying; a hmse connection from the dwelling to the sewer lateral which ends at the property line, Installation cost wiYl vary depending upon depth and length of sewer trench. A range of $2.00 per linear €eet to $4.00 ‘per llinear feet for a “house connection” tb a dwelling has been reported. This work can be done by any plumber, Leo Williams, or the property mer himself. In the last case only, a permit costing $7.00 and payable to the City, is required. To summarize the costs outlined above, the following example of approximate charges for a property having a 75-foot street frontage and a %-foot setback is given: 1. “LfTlne Cbst“ @ $4.00 CRY $300.00 2. “Capita1 Cbntribution Charge” City 50.00 3. Sewer Eciteral Leo WilliAms 110.00 4. House Connection Plumber or Contracfor 60.00 Total (Baseti on Average Figures) $520.00‘ The property owner may pay the “line costs’ only for the present in event a connection is nOt needetl m. The total paytnent must, however, be made before a sewer connection caxf be ma&. Of particular importance now is the increase in “line-costs” per front-foot For all pmjects completed thus far under Ordinance No, 7020, property omers who have not yet paid their portion of $&e cost sh6uld avail themselves of the oBprtulrity to pay at the current fee of $3.00 per front-foot. Otherwise, zis of March l’, 1957, the feeg wtll be raised to $4.00 per front-foot, and all payments dtie will be Based on that revised rate. In event you have any questions regarding the Ordinance or this informational bulletin, our staff will be glad to review them in detail with you.
