calculated above, the net allowable recycled water connection fee is $74,447 for a 1 -1/2" meter. Details of the calculation are shown in Exhibit RW -1 of the Technical Appendix. The recycled water connection fee can then be developed for customers based on the size of the meter. The fee, as developed, was based on a 1 -1/2" meter, the meter capacities for the different meter sizes are then used to develop the fee based on the size of the customer's meter. Provided below in Table 4 -5 is a summary of the recycled water connection fee by meter size. Meter Size Meter Equivalent Recycled Water Connection Fee 5/8" 3/4" 1" 1 -1/2" (Displacement Type) 1 -1/2" (OMNI C2) 1 -1/2" (OMNI T2)" 2" (Displacement Type) 2" (OMNI C2) 2" (OMNI T2) (1) 1.00 1.50 2.50 5.00 16.00 16.00 8.00 16.00 20.00 $14,889 22,334 37,227 74,447 238,230 238,230 119,115 238,230 297,788 (1) Meters 3" and up the fee is determined by AWWA M1 Manual, Sixth Edition, Table VI. the City based on maximum rate AWWA meter equivalency from 2 -5, page 274. In Table 4 -5, the connection fee meter sizes are determined by multiplying the connection fee for a 5/8 -inch meter by the meter capacity weighting factors. The weighting factors are determined based on the American Water Works Association (AWWA) safe operating capacities for the type and size of meter. The safe operating capacity of each meter is divided by the safe operating capacity for a 5/8 -inch displacement -type meter to determine the weighting factor for each meter. For example, the safe operating flow capacity of a 1 -1/2 -inch meter is 5.00 times the safe operating flow capacity of a 5/8 -inch meter. Stated another way, the capacity that a customer has with a 1 -1/2 -inch meter is equivalent to the capacity of five times single - family homes (i.e., a 5/8 -inch customer). 4.5 Key Assumptions In the development of the City's connection fees a number of key assumptions were utilized. These are as follows: ❑ The City's connection fees were developed on the basis of accounting, financial and planning documents provided by the City. ❑ The methodology used is the "combined" methodology. The existing and future component are added together for a net allowable connection fee.
