Council conditions Bulldog Road waterline extension on annexation commitment
Summary
The Council discussed a homeowner request to extend culinary water to Bulldog Road; staff estimated about $30,000 to extend the line and Council reached consensus that extensions should be conditioned on the property owners' commitment to annex into Enoch.
Public Works Director Hayden White presented a request from a Bulldog Road property owner whose private well is failing and who wants to connect to the city's culinary water system; White estimated the city portion of a line extension at approximately $30,000, with the owner responsible for connection fees, impact fees, and meter installation.
City Attorney Justin Wayment explained state law about designated service areas and noted a 2021 change that precludes charging different rates solely because a property is outside city limits. Given the properties lie just beyond the city's annexation-declaration boundary, Council members agreed by consensus that any extension should be conditioned on the affected property owners' commitment to annex at the earliest opportunity. Staff was directed to convey that position to the owner and to explore a line-extension agreement that includes reimbursement rules for connecting properties.
