(C) Change of use; fee: Each water or sewer user changing use of his property now
connected to the water or sanitary sewer system of the City of McCall shall pay

appliances. or rooms. an incremental charge is owed to the City. (Ord. 673, 9-8-94)

or sewer connection for more than a single family residence also ceases. Any
use of such property will require that new connection fees and charges be paid.

(F) In the event that a land use is proposed which would include activities having
multiple separate source classifications in the Wastewater Flow Tables published

land use proposes to install equipment or processes which would have the effect
of using the effluent from one of such activities for the water source for another of
those activities. or would otherwise have the effect of changing the volume or
characteristics of the effluent towards a lessening of the treatment burden. the
Council may after receiving a recommendation from the City Manager. vary the
charges and fees accordingly. In such a case the City Mana,+er or his designee
