In order to develop a Sanitary Sewer System that will

important to form general policies and guidelines. The
following addresses the major issues related to the
development of the City's Sanitary Sewer System.
1.02 Development Policy
A. Developer is responsible for the cost and construction
of the sanitary sewer system required to serve the
approved subdivision. The sanitary sewer system shall
include, but is not limited to: manholes, sewer mains,
service lines, pumping stations, force mains, and all
necessary appurtenances.
B. The sanitary sewer system within the subdivision is
required to be sized to the ultimate capacity of that
portion of the sub -basin area which will discharge
through the subdivision, and reasonable portion of
sub -basin upstream of the subdivision, as determined by
the City based upon present and future development of
property within the sub -basin area.
C. If a larger sanitary sewer system (including pumping
systems) is required to serve a sub -basin area as
described in 1.02 B. than is required to serve a
particular subdivision, the developer will be
responsible for installing the larger system. In such
event the developer may be eligible for reimbursement
for a portion of the larger system in accordance with
1.02 D.
D. The City will reimburse the developer for oversizing
the sanitary sewer system not required to serve the
subdivision based on the following:
1. Reimbursement related to oversizing the collection
system shall only be considered for sewer mains
larger than twelve (12) inches. Reimbursement
costs shall be the difference of the cost of pipe
between twelve (12) inch and the actual size
installed.
2. Reimbursement related to oversizing the pumping
systems shall be the cost of oversizing, based
upon information and data submitted by the
Developer and approved by the City.
2. Main Extensions

extending the sanitary sewer system and allows for equitable
reimbursement for said extensions.

Sanitary Sewer Master Plan has not been approved for
the area, such extension shall be in accordance with
the preliminary Sanitary Sewer Master Plan developed by
the City.
B. The sanitary sewer system shall be extended to the
exterior boundaries of the subdivision.
C. If the developer has cause to extend the sanitary sewer
main(s) from outside the proposed subdivision, the
