(a) Each person within the territorial limits of the village shall pay a sewer connection fee to cover the cost of the construction of the waste water treatment plant and sewer mains connecting thereto as follows:
Occupancy | Fee |
Residential units | $2,500 for the first tap and $1,000 for each additional tap on any parcel by the same owner within a 1 year period |
Commercial units | $3,500 per tap |
Governmental/ institutional units | The greater of $3,500 or $5.00 per person employed at the facility to which connection is made and/or per pupil enrolled or to be enrolled at the facility to which connection is made during the school year in which connection is made. |
Industrial units | Connecting fees for industrial tap-ins are not subject to clear definition in that the natures of given industrial uses can vary considerably. Therefore, an applicant, upon applying for industrial tie-in, shall have the nature of the industrial use reviewed by the Village Administrator, and a connecting charge shall be established in direct relationship to the burden imposed upon the sewerage treatment facilities by the proposed industrial use. If the Village Administrator is unable to determine the appropriate connecting charge for the proposed industrial use, he or she shall refer the application to a qualified engineer who shall review the application in terms of its impact upon the sewerage treatment facilities. The engineer shall thereafter make written recommendations to the Administrator as to a connecting charge that shall be responsive to the impact upon the sewerage treatment facility. The cost of the engineer's review shall be borne by the applicant. The minimum fee shall be $7,000. The engineer’s recommendation and cost of the engineering review shall be added to the minimum fee. |
Each multiunit apartment building or complex on a single parcel | $2,500 plus $300 per dwelling unit |
Each mobile home park | The greater of $2,500 or $50 per mobile home lot |
(b) Charges for connections outside the territorial limits of the village (if approved by Council) shall be as provided above, plus an additional 75%.
