OF THE
TRUCKEE DONNER PUBLIC UTILITY DISTRICT
CLARIFYING DISTRICT POLICY REGARDING
FUNDS COLLECTED FOR FUTURE WATER METERS
WHEREAS, pursuant to Resolution No. 79-20, the District
established a policy of collecting from applicants requesting
water service to homes not previously served by the District a
$40 fee to be applied toward the District's eventual system-wide
expense of installing residential water meters; and
WHEREAS, the fee has since been increased on at least one
occasion, and is currently $135 per new residential application;
and
WHEREAS, at the time of preparing the audit report for the
District's 1987 calendar year, the District auditors requested a
clarification of the District's policy regarding this fee, to
better enable them to finalize the District' s audit;
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the Board of Directors of
the Truckee Donner Public Utility District as follows:
1. The District hereby determines that it shall require
that water meters be installed on all residential services within
the District, and that residential customers be charged based on
water usage.
2 . The District has not yet determined the date for the
system-wide installation of water meters, but the District Board
intends to set a date, taking into account state law,
recommendations of staff, and all relevant facts and
circumstances.
3 . Funds collected in the past and in the future from
applicants requesting water service to homes not previously
served by the District shall be used by the District, at the time
of system-wide installation of water meters, to defray the total
cost of system-wide water metering, and shall not be applied
toward the cost of installing a water meter at the residential
service of the particular individual who paid the fee.
4. Because the fees will be applied to the system-wide
expense of water metering, any such fees charged in the past or
in the future shall be nonrefundable.
