A. Where a sewer main installation fee is assessed and levied upon the owner of premises initially connecting to the sewer system, such fee shall be due and payable at the time a building permit or a connection permit is issued for such premises, whichever first occurs. Provided, however, that where a sewer main installation fee is assessed and levied upon the owner of any such premises which are or will be occupied by “persons or families of low and moderate income,” as defined in Section 50093 of the California Health and Safety Code, and the entire amount of such fee will be financed with a loan made by the city or the Chico Redevelopment Agency, then such fee will be due and payable at the time of the issuance of a certificate of occupancy for such premises.
B. Where a sewer main installation fee is assessed and levied upon the owner of premises for which a tentative subdivision map has been approved by the city, such fee shall be due and payable either at the time a final map is filed for the subdivision or at the time a subdivision improvement agreement is executed, whichever first occurs. Provided, however, that where a sewer main installation fee is assessed and levied upon the owner of any such premises being developed with residential dwelling units to be occupied by families of low and moderate income as defined by Section 50093 of the California Health and Safety Code and the entire amount of such fee will be financed with a loan made by the city or the Chico Redevelopment Agency, then the owner of the premises may elect to defer payment of the sewer main installation fee for each such dwelling unit until the time of the issuance of a certificate of occupancy for the dwelling unit. In the event the owner of such premises makes such election, then the owner shall execute and record an agreement which shall be in a form approved by the city attorney and which shall set forth the owner's undertaking to pay the sewer main installation fee at the time of issuance of the certificate of occupancy for each residential dwelling unit constructed on the premises.
