The sewer main installation fee assessed and levied upon the owner of premises as hereinbefore provided by this article shall be determined by the director from the following sewer main installation rates:
A. Basic Sewer Main Installation Rate. The basic sewer main installation rates for residential and nonresidential premises shall be $25 per front foot of each lot, parcel, or subdivision on or within which such premises are located.
B. Increases in Basic Sewer Main Installation Rate. If, on July 1, 1989, or on July 1st of any year thereafter, there is an increase in the cost of constructing and installing sewer mains during the preceding year, then the basic sewer main installation rates shall also be increased in proportion to the increase in such costs. The determination of whether there has been an increase in the cost of constructing and installing sewer mains and the amount of the increase in the basic sewer main installation rates which is proportionate to the increase in such costs shall be made by the director, with the approval of the city manager, and shall be based exclusively on the net percentage increase during the preceding year in the Engineering News Record cost index for San Francisco (based on 1913 U.S. average = 100) as published in the Engineering News Record/McGraw-Hill Construction Weekly.
