Regulations recommendation of sewer service commission.
Reno Administrative Code § 12.16.350
in effectSec. 12.16.350. - Regulations recommendation of sewer service commission.
The sewer service commission shall recommend to the city council regulations and policies consistent with the provisions of this chapter for the implementation of the provisions contained herein. Each prepayment of a sewer connection fee must be assigned to a specific project and shall not be transferable.
(1) If a specific project is unable to proceed, a return of up to 95 percent of the prepaid sewer connection fee may be made if the funds deposited have not been committed for capital projects construction. If funds have been committed, the percentage return will be 100 percent minus the percent developed by taking the amount of capital projects construction committed between the date of the prepayment and the date of the request for the return divided by the unreserved retained earnings in the capital sewer projects division of the sanitary sewer enterprise fund on the date of the request for the return. The return will never be more than 95 percent nor less than zero percent. However, if the prepayment of a sewer connection fee resulted in the city issuing a notice to the county department of health that sewage services will be provided to a subdivision, "a will-serve letter," refunds will not be made.
(2) Whenever a subdivision has prepaid sewer connection fees and is issued a "will-serve letter" for sewage treatment, and said subdivision subsequently reverts to acreage, a return not exceeding 95 percent of the sewer connection fee will be returned as set forth in subsection (1) above. Exception: The calculation will be made as of the date of recordation of the map of reversion or abandonment and not on the date of request for return.
