SPECIAL FACILITY CHARGE The General Manager discussed the special facility charge which is required for the development of limited service areas. He indicated that there are two areas within the District where we are experiencing some growth pressure. One being the land con- tained in the City Creek wash area and the other in the Sycamore Heights substation area. Staff's recommendation was that the special facility charge that was established by the Board in 1979 for the land in the City Creek wash area be increased to $700 based upon the Engineering News Record Cost Construction Index.
