The record

Why it exists

“A capacity charge is a one-time charge that is collected from new customers or developers when they connect to an existing system or increase the demand on the system.”

What it pays for

“Capacity charges help fund infrastructure needed to serve new development. They ensure that existing customers don't subsidize the cost of growth.”

Where it applies

“CCWD's primary growth areas are Copper Cove and Jenny Lind; CCWD also projects significant growth in its Forest Meadows and Ebbetts Pass service areas.”
