PUEBLO TO REIMBURSE COMANCHE CORP.
FOR OVERSIZING A SANITARY SEWER MAIN
FOR SOUTHGATE AT PUEBLO SUBDIVISION
FILING NO. 1
Department: WASTEWATER DEPARTMENT Date: DECEMBER 14, 1998
ISSUE
Should the City of Pueblo approve a resolution authorizing reimbursement for
oversizing a sanitary sewer main.
RECOMMENDATION
Approval of the Resolution.
BACKGROUND
In 1994 the City of Pueblo adopted an ordinance assessing a fee for all new
connections and enlargements of existing connections, made to the City's sanitary
sewer system. The revenue from the connection fees are deposited into a special fund
(Sanitary Sewer Collection System Improvement Fund). No expenditures from the fund
shall be made except for growth related capital projects.
Comanche Corp. recently installed a sanitary sewer main to serve Southgate at Pueblo
Subdivision, Filing No. 1. Although an eight inch (8 ") main would accommodate the
subdivision, the City required the developer to install a twenty -four inch (24 ") sewer
along Lake Avenue which will also serve the area to the south. Along with the
ordinance adopting the sanitary sewer connection fees the City adopted a resolution
regarding "Sanitary Sewer System - General Policies." The policies addressed sewer
main extensions, relief sewers and oversizing. According to the policy, the City will
reimburse the developer for oversizing the sanitary sewer system not required to serve
the subdivision based on specific criteria. Comanche Corp. has met all of the criteria
and is therefore eligible for reimbursement for oversizing the main along Lake Avenue.
FINANCIAL IMPACT
The reimbursement of $21,129.64 will be paid through the Sewer Utility Fund, Account
Number 014 - 0400 -437- 000 - 030 -0031 and then credited from the SSCF account 014-
009- 500 -1787
