Any person who constructs more than two hundred feet (200’) of water and/or sanitary sewer infrastructure improvements, as required by the city, in excess of what is required to meet minimum standards or extends beyond the minimum requirement for improvement to benefit properties abutting the new improvements, may, with the approval of the city, enter into a contract with the city which allows the developer to be reimbursed for that portion of the construction cost that benefits the adjoining properties and/or is in excess of the minimum standard. This contract is commonly termed a “latecomers agreement.” Cost apportionment for a latecomers agreement must be submitted for review and approval on a form provided by Public Works prior to plan approval to be considered. See the most current city of Whitefish Engineering Standards for more information and requirements. (Ord. 09-23, 11-16-2009; amd. Ord. 21-15, 9-20-2021)
