The number of ERC Measurement Units, as provided by the applicant, approved and/or adjusted by the Public Works Department, shall be based upon the maximum number of such ERC Measurement Units associated with the criteria used by the City’s Building Department and/or Fire Marshall for such establishments. The number of square feet shall be based on the enclosed area. (a) One Equivalent Residential Connection (ERC) shall, for the purposes of this Section, have an assigned value of 1.00. For water Customer Capacity, one ERC is hereby established and determined to be equal to a flow of 350 gallons per day (GPD), average annual basis, or such other value as may be later approved or determined by the City. For wastewater Customer Capacity, one ERC is hereby established and determined to be equal to a flow of 300 GPD, average annual basis. Page 7 (b) (c) (d) (e) (f) The “total Equivalent Residential Connection value” for an establishment shall be calculated by multiplying the ERC factor identified above by the number of ERC Units. Mixed-use establishments (i.e. establishments which utilizes water and wastewater capacity under several categories) shall have their Impact Fees calculated based on the sum of the individual categories applicable to the establishment. The minimum Customer Capacity requirement (i.e. ERC) shall be based on the highest minimum for any applicable category. For existing establishments that are issued additional building or plumbing permits which will subsequently increase the amount of capacity needed, or if a facility formerly classified as residential is reclassified, the Impact Fee shall be computed based on the difference in ERCs between the old and new classification. Should the new classification result in a Customer Capacity demand that is less than the previous, no rebate for fees paid shall be applicable. For all establishments either not listed above or listed without specific ERC Units and Factors, the total ERC value for Water Customer Capacity shall be determined by dividing the numerator that is equal to the average daily demand (as provided in a certificate from the architect or engineer) by 350 gallons per day (gpd). For example: Total Water ERCs = Average Daily Demand 350 gpd /ERC The Water Impact Fee shall be determined by using the following formula: Total Water ERCs x $700.00 = Water Impact Fee For all establishments either not listed above or listed without specific ERC Units and Factors, the total ERC value for Wastewater Customer Capacity shall be determined by dividing the numerator that is equal to the average daily flow (as provided in a certificate from the architect or engineer) by 300 gallons per day (gpd). For example: Page 8 Total Wastewater ERCs = Average Daily Flow 300 gpd /ERC The Wastewater Impact Fee shall be determined by using the following formula: Total Wastewater ERCs x $807.00 = Wastewater Impact Fee Section 7: Establishment of Funds, Expenditure Guidelines and Pledge of Revenues. The Water Impact Fees collected pursuant to this ordinance shall be deposited into a fund called the “Fort Walton Beach Water System Impact Fee Fund” and the Wastewater Impact Fees shall likewise be deposited into a fund called the “Fort Walton Beach Wastewater Impact Fee Fund.” Section 8: Use of Funds a.
