County Seeks Increase to Catlett‑Calverton Sewer System Application Fee from $600 to $765
Summary
Staff proposed raising the new‑service application fee paid to Emboden Environmental Services for connections to the Catlett‑Calverton sewer system from $600 to $765 to cover higher operator costs.
Fauquier County staff proposed an increase to the application fee for new service connections to the Catlett‑Calverton sewer system at the April 10 agenda review.
Staff said the fee is a pass‑through paid to the system operator, Emboden Environmental Services (operator name presented as Emboden/Emboden Environmental Services in the record), to cover engineering, construction meetings and inspections. The current application fee of $600 would rise to $765 under the proposal, a $165 increase. Staff described the change as necessary because operator costs are exceeding the original fee level.
The fee schedule for Catlett‑Calverton was adopted Aug. 10, 2023. Staff did not provide the projected revenue impact or the expected number of new connections during agenda review. The proposed fee change was placed on the public‑hearing agenda for further citizen comment and final board action.
