Efland Community Public Sewer Program Package <br /> IV-A <br /> *Example* New Customer Cost Summary Sheet <br /> There are several fees and costs associated with connecting to the sewer system. The following <br /> charts show these fees for the average-sized parcel in this area, which is about 2.4 acres. <br /> The fees shown in Figure 1 below are capital facility fees, for both Orange County and the Town <br /> of Hillsborough, and availability fees for Orange County. Capital facility fees and availability <br /> fees help pay for your portion of the repair costs on major pieces of equipment necessary to <br /> operate the system, such as pump stations, owned by Orange County and the wastewater <br /> treatment plant, owned and operated by the Town of Hillsborough. The current Town of <br /> Hillsborough fee for a new residential sewer connection is $2472. Orange County has a split fee <br /> structure which charges $1000 per acre of your parcel as an availability fee and $600 per <br /> residential sewer connection. The availability fee is charged once the sewer line has been <br /> installed and is available for you to connect. The connection fee is not charged until you apply <br /> for connection to the sewer system. In the example below, since the parcel size is 2.4 acres, the <br /> per acre availability fee is $2400. Your fee will be less than this if your parcel of land is smaller <br /> and more than this if your parcel of land is larger. All of the fees shown in Figure 1 are charged <br /> only once. <br /> *Example* <br /> Current Capital and Availability Fees for a 2.4 acre <br /> Parcel <br /> $6,000.00 - ■Orange County tap fee <br /> $5,000.00 ($600 per residence) <br /> $4,000.00 <br /> $3,000.00 <br /> a Orange County <br /> $2,000.00 availability fee ($1000 <br /> $1,000.00 <br /> $2,472.00 per acre) <br /> j <br /> i <br /> $- ❑Town of Hillsborough <br /> NOTE: All of these fees are as of capital facility fee <br /> April 2010, but are subject to (Wastewater Treatment <br /> Plant) <br /> lant) <br /> Figure 1 <br />
