(a) Any offsite recycled water distribution facilities required to serve existing or new developments of the property within the City, as determined by the Administrator, shall be provided by the applicant, owner, or customer at their expense, unless the Administrator determines it is a City benefit to construct these capital facilities.
(b) Plans and specifications for all recycled water distribution facilities shall be submitted to and approved by the Administrator, and other regulatory agencies, in advance of construction.
(c) The City will assume responsibility for providing recycled water service to the point of connection of such development on transfer, to the City, of the title to all offsite recycled water systems and any necessary easements. All easements shall be in a form acceptable to the Administrator, and not subject to outstanding obligations to relocate such facilities or any deeds of trust, except in instances where such is determined by the Administrator to be in the best interest of the City.
(d) The City and the property owner or developer may enter into a reimbursement agreement for the portions of a recycled water system that are required to be oversized with capacity to supply more recycled water than the property owner or developer requires. The determination to enter into a reimbursement agreement, and the specific items that are the subject of reimbursement, will be made by the City.
