If the homeowner “up front” costs exceed $10,000, will it then be brought up for popular vote for approval?
The up front costs of around $10,000 includes a tapping fee, which has been fixed by resolution of the UUTMA, and an estimate of the lateral connection costs. Because each property is different, the connection cost could vary somewhat. However, the $!0,000 figure is a conservative estimate. If an individual property should exceed $10,000, it will not be brought up for popular vote.
