The proposed improvements consist of construction of infrastructure to support the Subdivision in order to access the Town’s water main along the West Mountain and Corinth Roads. All individual water service connections from the water main to the edge of the Town highway right-of-way including the corporation stop, the copper service pipe, curb stop and curb box will be installed by the subdivision developer during the construction of the road and water distribution system. The connection from the property line to the individual houses will be done at the time of construction of the individual houses. All new installations and taps will be coordinated with the Town of Queensbury Water Department. Maintenance of the existing and new facilities will be provided by the Town of Queensbury Water Department. The vast majority of these lots were already in the Water District. 3. All capital costs associated with installation of the water distribution facilities including labor, materials and equipment will be paid by the subdivision developer. There will be no financing cost or tax increase in the existing Queensbury Consolidated Water District. 4. The capital improvements necessary for this service area were provided and paid for by the Subdivision developer and so there will be no debt service costs related to this District Extension to the District. The estimated annual cost of the District Extension is not relevant to this Extension as every lot which has property within the Extension already was in the Water District and there are no new lots being served. The typical property which has property included in the District Extension having assessed value at $350,000, which typical property is a typical one family home, will have an estimated annual cost for operation and maintenance and other charges (assuming an average water usage) of $609. All individual water service connections will be installed by the subdivision developer during the construction of the road and 3 water distribution system and such portion of the water service connection will be done at the expense of the subdivision developer and there will be no cost to the individual homeowner or the Queensbury Consolidated Water District. The connection from the property line to the individual houses will be done at the time of construction of the individual homes and will be the responsibility of the individual homeowners. The cost of a typical ¾” service connection from the property line to the house will be in the range of $500 to $3,000 depending on the length of pipe required. All service connection construction shall be done to Queensbury Water Department Standards and subject to their inspection. 5. A detailed explanation of how the estimated costs of the District Extension were computed is included in the Map, Plan and Report which has been filed with the Queensbury Town Clerk and is available for public inspection. The maximum estimated cost of the improvements which actually only includes providing water to those portions of such lots that were already within the bounds of the existing Water District, is $125,000. . 6The developer of the Subdivision will pay all costs of the improvements so there will be no financing required by the Town on behalf of the District. 7. The proposed improvements shall be constructed and installed as specifically delineated in the Map, Plan and Report and in full accordance with the Town of Queensbury's specifications, ordinances or local laws, and any State laws or regulations, and in accordance with approved plans and specifications and under competent engineering supervision. 8.
