§ 122-71. Same—Amendment by council.  


Latest version.
  • Separate and apart from the automatic escalation provisions set forth in section 122-70, the county manager may file with the council a higher contribution schedule, and in support, detail the reasons requiring such increased contributions. Such reasons may include and be related to increasing standards of service; inadequate or incorrect estimates of the total anticipated contributions versus the actual investment levels required by the county for water distribution and sewer collection facilities; actual experience with regard to matters of service area density having a direct bearing upon contributions received versus the cost of construction of the facilities; matters of net investment bearing upon rates and charges required of consumers; and/or such other matters which may reasonably bear upon the needs, necessities or considerations requiring such change. Based upon these and any other factors affecting the systems, the county council may by resolution at a public hearing amend schedules for rates, charges or contributions.
