Assessment/benefit district(s) may be formed through the City for any Plan Area public sewer facility expansions. In such case(s), a minimum of 70 percent of the cost of facility construction must be guaranteed by private participants. The remaining cost may be fronted by the City to help defray the cost of fronting the improvements by existing homeowners and new home developers. This would also avoid making existing homeowners and new homebuilders pay the full cost of construction when up to 30 percent of the landowners may not yet care to participate. Full pro rata share cost payment, plus interest, shall be required for those within an assessment/benefit district who choose to participate at a later time. • New home developers will fund the cost of line extensions to their sites beyond those constructed for the Golf Course and their pro rata share (where applicable) of the cost of oversizing the lines and pump station constructed for the Golf Course. They shall also be responsible for applicable connection fees and on-site improvements. • Existing homeowners will have the option of connecting to the City sewer system. Those choosing to connect will fund the costs of line extension to their sites beyond those constructed for the Golf Course and their pro rata share (where applicable) of the costs of the lines and pump station constructed for the Golf Course. Existing homeowners who connect their homes to the City sewer system will be required to remove or fill existing on-site septic tanks. Those choosing not to connect may retain their private sewage system, subject to standard public health and safety standards. The Sycamore Road area is currently supplied with water and sewer mains, with laterals, installed by Greenbriar Homes as part of the North Sycamore Specific Plan. Properties on the south side of Sycamore Road in the unincorporated County can only connect to these pursuant to City policy. A reimbursement for the cost of the laterals is also established through the Greenbriar/North Sycamore Specific Plan process. SEWER/WATER SERVICE TO ALISAL STREET AND SYCAMORE ROAD PROPERTIES The water/sewer systems as described above to serve these streets are either currently in place (Sycamore) or will be built by the Golf Course project. These are also the two streets affected by Golf Course traffic (and construction on Alisal Street) in the time period before a bypass road is built. Given the physical presence of utility laterals and the impacts of the Golf Course project, it may be warranted to review the City's policies for connections to properties still not annexed.
