RESOLUTION NO. 1856
A RESOLUTION ADOPTING UPDATED WATER CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT
PLAN AND WATER SYSTEM DEVELOPMENT CHARGES
RECITALS:
WHEREAS, Oregon Revised Statutes Chapter 223 and Central Point Municipal Code
Chapter 11.12 authorize the collection of system development charges for water supply,
treatment, and distribution; and
WHEREAS, the City’s existing Water System Development Charges were last updated in
2009 and no longer reflect current construction costs, growth projections, or adopted
capital plans; and
WHEREAS, the City Council has reviewed and considered an updated Water Capital
Improvement Program identifying capacity-expanding projects required to serve future
growth; and
WHEREAS, the City Council has reviewed and considered an updated Water System
Development Charge methodology, which is necessary to address the additional capital
improvement projects as well as current construction costs and growth projections; and
WHEREAS, existing water system debt exceeds unused system capacity, resulting in no
recoverable reimbursement fee, and the proposed Water System Development Charge is
therefore comprised solely of an improvement fee associated with future capacity-
expanding capital projects; now, therefore,
The City of Central Point resolves as follows:
Section 1. IMPROVEMENT PLAN.
The City Council hereby adopts, as its Water Capital Improvement Plan required by ORS
223.309 and Central Point Municipal Code Section 11.12.080, the Water Capital
Improvement Program contained in Exhibit A, incorporated herein by reference. Said
exhibit defines the cost of projected capital improvements needed to increase water
system capacity and identifies the estimated cost, timing, and percentage of costs eligible
to be funded with revenues from the Water System Development Charge improvement
fee.
The improvement plan adopted herein may be modified from time to time by resolution

infrastructure projects.
10.0% - Conservative allocation for fire flow improvements that primarily serve existing system but provide some redevelopment
capacity.
Docusign Envelope ID: 52186D64-9A5A-47D9-AF6D-176B46D74DEC
7.0% - Partial allocation for major projects being debt-funded. Recognizes growth benefit while avoiding double-charging
ratepayers who are paying debt service.
0.0% - Projects fully funded through rates or debt with no growth allocation (maintenance, operations, studies).
Note: All costs are inflated from original cost estimates to 2025 dollars using Engineering News Record Construction Cost Index.
