CONTRACT K-1819-58: A CONTRACT BY AND BETWEEN THE NORMAN UTILITIES AUTHORITY AND 48TH AND ALAMEDA, L.L.C., TO IMPLEMENT A LIFT STATION OPERATION, MAINTENANCE AND REPLACEMENT FEE FOR EAST RIDGE LIFT STATION SERVING THE BARN AT TERRA VERDE ADDITION.
Body
BACKGROUND: In 2003, general policy was modified to allow installation of new lift stations if long-term operation, maintenance and capital equipment replacement costs (OM&R) were borne by the users of the new lift station (LS). An administrative Lift Station Fee collected through utility billing and applicable to each lot or customer in the new development was implemented through a contractual agreement.
