Connection Fees:

Connection Fee Notes:

1)The cost of a five-eighths-inch water connection within the corporate limits will be $3,000, if the distance from the water main to the property line is not over 40 feet. Should the distance from the water main to the property line be greater than 40 feet, the property owner must pay the actual cost of service lines in excess of 40 feet. The cost of water connections larger than five-eighths-inch will be $3,000 plus the difference in actual cost of materials between a five-eighths-inch connection and larger connection.

2)The cost of all water connections outside the corporate limits will be based on the actual cost of materials and installation plus an administrative charge equal to 20% of such actual cost or a minimum fee of $4,500, whichever is greater.

3) If the distance from the sewer main to the property line is greater than 40 feet, the property owner must pay for the actual cost of the lateral which is in excess of 40 feet in addition to the regular connection charges set forth above. The charge of $5 per linear foot of the width of the lot frontage of the structure to be connected is not applicable for connections to any interceptor sewer main or to an existing collector sewer main which was installed prior to September 6, 1966, or which is located in a subdivision in which the subdivision developer has installed the sewer main to the property line.

4) Sewer connection fees outside the corporate limits of the Town will be made at actual cost of materials and installation plus an administrative charge equal to 20% of the actual cost, or a minimum fee of $4,500, whichever is greater.

Sewer Main Extension Fee Note: This cost will be in addition to the regular connection fee and will be paid at the time of connection. The Town Council may require that one-third of the estimated total cost based on $5 per linear foot of main be paid by the property owners prior to the extension being started. Such extension will be made only with the Council's approval after cost estimates and the need for the extension have been determined.
