The boundary area, as shown in Exhibit A, is determined for the purpose of assessment review. The boundary is used as a guideline, not as a
definitive boundary for service area due to the possibility of varying lot sizes that may be proposed. If a plat meets the definition of other
development stated in the water main capacity charge policy, then the plat will be assessed the water main capacity charge even though the plat
may be located adjacent to, within, and/or outside the boundary area. The adoption of this charge is in accordance with Chapter 35, Water and
Sewers, Division IV, Water Main Capacity Charges.
The water main capacity charge boundary is located in Council District 6.
A Form 1295 is not required because: This M&C does not request approval of a contract with a business entity.

The Director of Finance certifies that upon approval of the above recommendation and establishment of the charge, funds will be deposited into
the Water & Sewer Fund. The Water Department (and Financial Management Services) is responsible for the collection and deposit of funds due
