To preclude the County's <br />inappropriately underwriting future connections to the system as development in the <br />Efland area increases, staff recommends that the Board create and define: <br />1) a stub-out service line fee which recovers the administrative and construction cost of <br />installing the service line on the basis of a "cost plus" structure;. <br />
