ORDINANCE NO. 2107
AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF CHULA VISTA
ADDING CHAPTER 13.14 TO THE CHULA VISTA MLINICIPAL CODE
ESTABLISHING A SEWERAGE FACILITY PARTICIPATION FEE
By a unanimous vote on April 2, 1985 (Councilman Malcolm
was absent), the Council placed the ordinance on second
reading and adoption.
Chula Vista is one of very few agencies which does not
impose a charge against new construction for sewage
treatment plant and/or trunk sewer capacity. The
ordinance proposes a system of fees based on a charge
of $300 per equivalent dwelling unit (EDU). EDU
equivalencies for many common land uses are included
in the schedule.
Copies of the ordinance are available at the office of
the City Clerk, City Hall, 276 Fourth Avenue, Chula
Vista, CA.
