C. An additional water quantity impact component charged only to: <br /> 1. those older account for developments in which the City would be <br /> working to improve the capacity of the system to handle peak loads. <br /> (This would also allow an incentive for those older accounts which <br /> would like to see a reduction in this monthly billing.) <br /> �. those new developments too small to allow on site controls+ ' ___ <br /> 3. those new developments whose on -site controls have failed But only <br /> until repair of those facilities can be effected. <br /> NOTE: This type of rate structure would be difficult and costly for staff to track and <br /> administer due to its complexity. Many customers would have difficulty in <br /> understanding why their rates were different and staff would spend <br /> considerable time in education and dealing with requests for reductions that <br /> wouldn't meet requirements. (We already have some of that scenario.) <br /> ASSUMPTIONS: <br /> Developers will be required to build and maintain affordable on -site structures which will <br /> remove the majority of the contaminates and meter the quantity CFS flow to a level equal or <br /> below that which existed prior to their development. <br /> Through basin planning and stormwater modeling the city is able to ascertain when an existing <br /> problem exists downstream or when a problem "likely" would occur from allowing a "metered" <br /> pre - development CFS over an unnaturally long duration. <br /> In order to help resolve existing downstream problems in the public collection system the city <br /> would be willing to participate in the design and funding of an on -site system. <br /> Regional systems would be under city maintenance and on -site systems under private <br /> maintenance. <br /> A policy would be in place that new developments needed to pay for both their initial <br /> construction and long term maintenance to the maximum extend practical. <br /> 1. Effective WATER QUALITY performance: <br /> 2. Effective FLOOD CONTROL performance: <br /> Obviously each has some level of effectiveness. Also, intuitively an assumption would be that <br /> 4 <br />
