3.100.010 Utility oversizing.

Water, sewer and storm and surface water main extensions shall be sized and configured in accordance with this code, resolutions, and water and sewer system plans. If main extension sizing required by the public works director exceeds the minimum allowable extension pipe sizing for the project, the city, acting by and through the public works director, shall reimburse the developer installing the oversized main for the differential cost in materials and installation for the greater pipe size. As the term “pipe” is used herein, it shall also include all oversized appurtenances such as valves, pumps, and fittings. Prior to the installation of the main extension subject to oversizing reimbursement, the developer shall provide the public works director with certified bids for the cost of minimum allowable extension pipe size as installed and the greater pipe size required by the public works director as installed for review and approval by the public works director to determine the differential cost. Additionally, the oversizing reimbursement section may be applied to those situations where the public works director requests an additional length of pipe to be constructed beyond the minimum allowable pipe length required by the project. The city, acting by and through the public works director, shall reimburse the developer for the differential cost of the pipe oversizing within 60 days of the final acceptance of the installed main extension.
