Water, Irrigation, and Sewer Impact Fee Amendments
Summary
New utility plans set what future development pays: sewer fees plunge to about $61 per connection, culinary water rises slightly, and pressurized irrigation jumps to roughly $20,000 per connection because of Alpine's large lots and needed infrastructure. Existing residents will pay for their share of improvements through future rates and possible bonds.

Impact analysis
New homebuilders will pay much more for irrigation capacity (~$20,000), while sewer fees nearly vanish; existing residents' rate impacts come later through the rate study.
Future residents get adequate water, sewer, and irrigation capacity; current residents benefit from fire-flow and pressure improvements citywide.
New homebuyers face sharply higher irrigation fees, and some council members worry existing residents could shoulder large bond costs.
