In addition to any other charges established by the ordinances, rules and regulations of the District, there shall be collected, prior to the connection to the sanitary sewerage system of the District, special connection charges for any parcel, unit, lot or part of any property that abuts on or can be served by an existing sewer main, existing sewer house service or lateral or sanitary sewerage facilities of the District constructed pursuant to special assessment and assessment bond proceedings or constructed by and at the expense of the District for which said parcel, unit, lot or part of any property was not assessed, or for which said property did not pay its proportionate cost of installation, as follows.
(A) Where the facilities to serve the property were constructed pursuant to special assessment proceedings, an additional connection charge shall be collected in a sum to be computed by the District as said property’s share of the cost of the existing sewerage facilities of the District to be used by said property. Said sum to be fixed by the District shall be the equivalent of the cost to similar properties within the District which have paid for said facilities so to be used through the use of special assessment and assessment bond proceedings, plus interest on said sum from the date of issuance of the assessment bonds to the dare of payment of said sum computed annually at the average interest rate at which the bonds were sold. In addition, said sum shall also be adjusted to reflect any increase in the engineering news record (ENR) construction cost index (San Francisco). The percentage of increase multiplied by said property’s share of the original cost of construction shall be collected by the District. The charges collected pursuant to the provisions of this division (A) shall be deposited in the applicable construction fund established in the particular assessment bond proceedings and shall be applied as a credit upon the levied assessments in the same manner as is provided in Cal. Streets and Highways Code, § 10427.1. In no event shall any such charges be collected after the final maturity of the bonds issued pursuant to the applicable special assessment and assessment bond proceedings.
(B) Where the facilities to serve the property were constructed by or for the District in order to coordinate the construction of said facility with any street improvement program of the City of Carmel-by-the-Sea or the county, or for any other reason, which facilities were paid for by the District, an additional connection charge shall be collected in a sum to be computed by the District on the basis of the actual cost of the installation of said facilities, including all expenses incidental thereto and all engineering, legal, inspection and other charges. The charges collected pursuant to the provisions of this section shall be deposited in the appropriate District fund to be used for such purposes as may be authorized by law.
