NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED By the Chanhassen City Council
that the following sewer user rates are hereby established for
the municipal sewer system:
A. Structures Connected to Both Sewer and Water:
A quarterly charge, based on winter quarter municipal
water usage, is hereby imposed on each single family
attached dwelling, each single family detached dwelling,
each commercial structure and each industrial structure,
which is connected to both the municipal water system and
the municipal sewer system as follows:
l. A minimum charge of $9.00 per dwelling unit, per com-
mercial structure, per industrial structure and per
billing statement generated, for all quarterly water
usage not exceeding 5,000 gallons,
2. A separate billing statement shall be generated for
each water meter, and
3. A charge of $2.05 per 1,000 gallons or fraction
thereof for all quarterly water usage in excess of
5,000 gallons.

Alternate System of Billing Computation
If water consumption during the winter billing
quarter does not accurately approximate actual sewer
usage throughout the entire billing year, the quar-
terly sewer charge shall be based upon water consump-
tion during such other billing quarter as most
accurately reflects actual sewer usage during the
entire billing year. If water consumption during any
particular billing quarter does not accurately
approximate actual sewer usage, the quarterly sewer
charge shall be based upon average quarterly water
consumption during the entire billing year, or such
other method as in the opinion of the City Engineer
which most closely approximates actual sewer usage.

that the quarterly charge shall be $18.30 per
quarter if said dwelling unit is occupied by
no more than two persons:
i. at least one of whom is at least 65 years

ii. at least one of whom is the owner of
said dwelling unit.
b. Alternate System of Billing Computation. The
quarterly sewer charge shall be based upon
actual private source water consumption and
upon the rates set forth in Section A,
above, if a water metering system acceptable
to the city has been installed, through which
accurate water consumption records can be
established.
2.
