HomeMy WebLinkAbout7/18/2001 - STAFF REPORTS (19) DATE: July 18, 2001 TO: City Council FROM: City Engineer SEWER SERVICE SOUTH OF ACANTO DRIVE RECOMMENDATION: That the City Council approve providing sewer service to the South Palm Canyon properties located outside the City limits, south of Acanto Drive and east of the southerly extension of S. Palm Canyon Drive and give direction regarding fees to be applied. SUMMARY: In response to a request from the Agua Caliente Band of Cahuilla Indians, this action would allow a maximum equivalent to 400 single family units on land outside the City limits to connect to City sewer. Council is being asked to discuss and give direction regarding applicable fees. The connection fee is currently $4,816 per unit for properties outside the City limits. BACKGROUND: The Municipal Code provides that sewer service may be extended to properties outside the City limits. The current fee for such properties as established by City Council Resolution is $4,816 per unit, which is double the fee for properties within the City. The Tribal Planning Director, on behalf of the Tribe, has requested the City consider providing sewer service to properties outside the City limits, south of Acanto Drive-The Tribal Planning Director reports that the maximum development potential on this property is equivalent to 400 dwelling units. Providing sanitary sewer to developable properites is of benefit, not only to the proposed development, but environmentally to the City and its adjacent areas. Although not within the City's sewer master planned area, the proposed amount of dwelling units added to the treatment plant is considered negligible. In order for this area to connect to the City sewer, the Tribe would need to construct approximately a quarter mile of City sewer main in South Palm Canyon Drive, from its current terminus near Bogert Trail south to the City limit at Acanto, in addition to the sewer on the property itself. In addition, all properties within the City connecting to the South Palm Canyon sewer must pay a $146.19, per lot, assessment to pay for the City's construction cost of the 15" sewer main in Avenida Granada, Calle Palo Fierro and Laverne Way. This fee is only applicable to development within the City, but Council may wish to consider recalculation of the fee to include the subject property. 11*4 Sewer Services at Acanto Dr. July 18, 2001 Page 2 Due to the extensive amount of off-site sewer construction necessary, the Tribe is asking Council consideration of applying the standard City connection fees, rats rrr ttha,n double fees required currently.
