Creekside Analysis. For Dunn and McCuskey to connect into the Creekside sewer system, the same basis and formula as used to calculate the Williamson fees would seem to be applicable. Based on the Enbineer's Estimated Costs dated 2-11-05: Dunn & McCuskev - Sewer Connection Fee Formula: 1) Sanitary Sewer Improvements: $49,l 64 $49,164 2) 1/2 of Base maintenance roadway costs $ 2,000 mobilization $14,000 common excavation 16,800 Class IV and V Base 2,250 fabric $35,050 35,050 3) Restaration $]0,000 5,000 $94,214 Sewer Connection Fee= $94,214/ ]0 base dwelling units= $9,421 /unit (Base units=7 in subdiv.Plus 1 McCuskey and 2 Dunn) Dunn & McCuskey - Water Connection Fee Formula: 1) Water Main Improvements: $38,906 $38,906 2) 1/2 of Base maintenance roadway costs: � $ 2,000 Mobilization 14,000 common excavation 16,800 Class IV and V Base 2,250 fabric $35,050 35.050 3) Restoration $10,000 10,000 $83,956 Water Connection Fee = $83,956 / 10 base dwelling units = $8,396 /unit (Base units=7 in subdiv. Plus 1 McCuskey and 2 Dunn) Note: It is unclear whether the old Long Lake S&W fees (paid for the seven Creekside lots in 2005) apply, or some yet-to-be-agreed-upon new fees apply per the "Sewer and Water Hook-up and Connection Charge" established in the (still pending) "Municipal Utility Service Agreement by and between the Cities of Long Lake and Orono". Those fees are $1,600 per unit for each SAC-equivalent sewer connection and $1,500 for each water connection (and will there also be "tap fees" of$1100 for water and $1200 for sewer as there were in 2005?). Orono would collect these at the time of connection permit issuance along with the standard Met Council SAC charge for sewer connection. The Long Lake connection fees collected by Orono will be a pass-through to Long Lake. The MCES SAC charge will continue to be a pass-through to Met Council.
