The City Council finds that it would be inequitable for owners of property to receive the benefit of connection to the water and sewer system without first paying their equitable share of the cost of the system. The City Council further finds that it is reasonable and lawful to establish connection charges to prevent such inequity from occurring. (Ord. 2108 § 1, 2001: Ord. 1485 § 1 (part), 1989).
