The owners of all land described in the city council's resolution or the city's agreement with the developer as benefited by such extension of the city's sewage collection or water system, may utilize access to the extended system upon the payment of that portion of the cost of extension allocated to such property pursuant to the method of allocation provided for in the city council's resolution or the city's agreement. Such allocated costs shall be paid in addition to connection charges otherwise imposed by the city pursuant to ordinance or resolution. Connection to a sewage collection or water system, extended pursuant to the provisions of this chapter, shall not be mandatory, and the requirements of sections 13.16.040 and 13.16.060 of this title shall not apply to those areas deemed by the city council to be benefited by an extended sewage collection system. All funds collected from benefited landowners pursuant to this section shall be retained by the city if the extension was constructed at the city's expense. If the extension was constructed at the expense of a developer, all funds collected by the city from benefited landowners pursuant to this section shall be paid to such developer. (Ord. 435 §1, 1995)
