AUG 21 1990 Roos �� ;r 25 but it does not necessarily mean that will coincide with our tracking or the exact capacity of the plant. Chairman Eggert understood then that if owners want to hook up in 5 or 6 years, they are not guaranteed capacity unless they have paid their impact fees, and Mr. McCain confirmed that. Mr. Dunayczan understood then that basically he would be foolish not to hook up now for $1,500 if this goes through, and Commissioner Scurlock confirmed that it would be best to hook up when the project is completed and the water capacity is available. When you pay your impact fee, you guarantee capacity. Bernadina Guy, 4225 7th Place, owner of 3 lots in Block C, questioned what her assessment would be if that parcel was divided into 6 single lots. Commissioner Wheeler explained that the assessment is based on square footage, not the number of lots. He noted that with the availability of water, the value of her parcel would increase if she were to subdivide into 6 lots. Commissioner Bird asked Attorney Vitunac if Mrs. Guy could subdivide the balance of Block C if she came in today to do that, but Attorney Vitunac was reluctant to say so without the Planning Director looking at it. However, in looking at the rest of the neighborhood, it would seem like she could. In the meantime, she would pay only one impact fee for the one residence on the property, and be assessed for the water project on the basis of square footage of the property, not the number of lots. If she had 6 lots, she would have to pay 6 impact fees. James Boyette, 736 42nd Avenue, felt it is unfair for Mrs. Guy to pay such a high assessment when she only has one dwelling on that tract. Fred Lipton of 39th Avenue was concerned about the effect of the salt from the water softener on his high blood pressure, and urged the Board to approve the assessment and go forward on the project for medical reasons.
