A. The monthly rates and charges for sanitary sewer collections and treatment services shall be based on the customer classification, size of water meter, number of units served at a location and the consumption rate per one hundred cubic feet of water provided for each respective location to all users within the city limits are fixed as follows:

B. All charges for sewer services provided to residential, multifamily residential, commercial, and industrial customers outside the Kalama city limits shall be set at the same rate as sewer services within the Kalama city limits.
C. The base meter fee for water service provided to all manufactured home parks or housing developments with multifamily units serviced through a master meter shall be computed at single or multi-unit dwellings rates set in this section with the meter fee computed as if each individual unit were metered separately. Any location with multiple units shall be computed at the rate set in this section multiplied by the number of units served. A unit is described as each separate living, business, rental unit or other type of building space or premises served with water and sewer facilities; provided, however, in the case of a school, a unit shall constitute each separate building with sewer and water facilities. (Ord. 1205 § 1, 2007: Ord. 1174 § 1, 2005: Ord. 1148 § 2, 2004).

A. A summer sewer rate is established for domestic sewer users for the months between the May meter reading and the September meter reading for customers inside the city limits and between the June meter reading and the October meter reading for customers outside the city limits as follows:
B. There shall be no charge for any usage in excess of ten percent of the average of the previous eight months’ metered usage if the previous six months’ average is representative of normal usage. If the six months’ metered average is not representative of normal usage for the customer, the city clerk is authorized to calculate a representative usage using the customer’s past billing history or the records of other representative customers. (Res. 386, 1999; Res. 373, 1998; Res. 147 (part)(A), 1977).

The above summer sewer rate established in Section 12.08.012 shall not be available to any commercial or industrial user of sewers. (Res. 147(B), 1977).

The connection charge shall be paid concurrent with city building permit fees for new connections inside the city limits and prior to connecting to the city system with proof of a county building permit for new connections outside the city limits.
B. The cost of all labor and material actually expended by the city in making such connections becomes due and payable at the time the connection is completed and, in any event, shall be paid in full before any occupancy certificate is issued. (Ord. 1182 § 1, 2006: Ord. 1153 § 1, 2005: Ord. 1090 § 10, 2002: Res. 356 §§ 1, 2, 1997; Ord. 316 §§ 1, 2, 1994; Res. 183 (part), 1980: Res. 148, 1977; Ord. 551 § 2, 1973: Ord. 465 § 6, 1962: Ord. 440 § 9, 1956).

D. In addition to the regular hook-up charges as specified in Section 12.08.030, the connection charges for mobile home parks and manufactured home parks shall require an additional four hundred dollar hook-up fee for the second and each additional permanent dwelling unit within such park, provided the same is located within the city limits, and six hundred dollars for the second and each additional permanent dwelling unit within such park if the same be located outside of the city limits.
