The record
“Kevin Williams, along with consultant Shawn Koorn from HDR, presented the revised La Contenta Wastewater capacity fee study. They recommended increasing the fee from $15,902 to $21,719 to ensure new developments appropriately contribute to growth-related infrastructure costs.”
“A capacity charge is a one-time charge that is collected from new customers or developers when they connect to an existing system or increase the demand on the system.”

“It is important to keep in mind that all fees are to be paid prior to the installation of services and that the District is to inspect all work.”
Calaveras County Water District, the agency that levies it
“Activation of the service connection is obtained by paying the required fees, submitting applicable information about the lot, and having a Customer Service Representative fill out a Utility Service Request (USR) form.”
“In the past, property owners who paid into AD-604 were charged a capacity fee for new connections that excluded AD-604 assets to ensure they were not charged twice for the same assets.”
“Mr. Korn stated the next steps would be publishing the Ordinance within 10 days of adoption, staff will continue outreach to members of the community, new fees would take effect May 8, 2022, and capacity fees would be adjusted annually every July 1st by the ENRCCI index as stated in the original Ordinance.”
