How Are These Dollars Spent?
The above rates are applied to the cost of utilities to operate facilities, equipment (purchase, use and maintenance), labor, materials (ie. chemicals), and debt service. Debt service is the cost that allows for capital improvements to existing facilities or construction of new facilities. Rates cannot change without prior approval by the Medina County Commissioners.
The frontage tap-in fee is included in the monthly water bill and was established to insure that each recipient of water services will pay their proportionate share of the cost of constructing the entire water works (i.e., water towers, pump stations, fire hydrants, and transmission lines) provided by the County of Medina. If someone is not connected to the water line they still receive the benefits of fire protection, reduced fire insurance rates, and increased resale value. Therefore, this fee will accumulate at the present rate, commencing upon notification of availability of water services, until they do connect. The accumulated total will be collected when they connect to the water line.
