13.06.010 Application and definitions.
As the city of Wasco develops, there is an increased demand placed on the sanitation services that the city must supply. Revenues generated from monthly sanitation rates are only for operational and maintenance expenses, and do not cover the cost of capital improvements to keep pace with the added demand that new development puts on the overall sanitation system. The fees established by this chapter shall apply to any development project to be built in the city.
"Capital improvements" means either a refuse disposal truck or street sweeping vehicle required to service new developments and which are more fully described in the engineering study.
"Development project" means any project undertaken for the purpose of development. Development project includes a project involving the issuance of a permit for construction or reconstruction, but not a permit to operate.
"Engineering study" means that certain document entitled "Sanitation Impact Fee Engineering Study - City of Wasco" prepared for the city by Helt Engineering, Inc. (Ord. 511 §1 (Exh. A), 2006).
