RECOMMENDATION:

serve surrounding areas within the Northside III pressure plane.
The qualified costs used to establish this water main capacity charge are outlined below:

The water main capacity charge for the 24-inch water transmission main is $38,840.24 per million gallons per day (MGD) in accordance with City
Code Section 35-92. The water main capacity charge collected will reimburse the Fort Worth Water Department. There is no restriction to the time
period for reimbursement to the Fort Worth Water Department.
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 section 35-88 of the City Code, 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,
Article III, Division 4, Water Main Capacity Charges.
The water main capacity charge boundary is located in the City's Extraterritorial Jurisdiction.
A Form 1295 is not required because: This M&C does not request approval of a contract with a business entity.
FISCAL INFORMATION / CERTIFICATION:
The Director of Finance certifies that upon approval of the above recommendations 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
to the City.
