For the convenience of customers and the efficient administration of the delivery of electrical services, the Town Council may, from time to time, establish standard or presumptive fees, or charges for the provision of various services contemplated by this article, and for which this article requires that a customer pay an excess facilities charge, or some other special fee or charge other than the charges for electric service provided by the electric rate schedules applied to that customer. Such standard or presumptive fees, or charges, shall be established by the Town Council based upon its findings as to the average, or approximate, costs incurred by the town in providing the service in question. Such fees or charges, when established, shall be presumed to be the cost of excess cost, as appropriate, to the town of providing the service in question, and shall be charged to, and paid by, the customer unless, in any given instance, the Town Manager shall find that the established fee, or charge, is not appropriate. Such finding shall, upon request of the customer, be made in writing and, upon request of the customer, shall be reviewed by the Town Council, and the determination of the Council shall be final. Standard or presumptive fees, or charges, provided for by this section shall be set forth in the schedule of electric rates and fees on file in the Town Clerk’s office, and available upon request.
