7. Water Main Lateral Benefits <br /> • The benefit resulting to a property abutting or utilizing a water main where a <br /> direct connection to that water main via a building service is reasonably <br /> possible without additional lateral pipes. <br /> Lateral benefit may be provided by connection to trunk, subtrunk or lateral <br /> pipes. The calculation of lateral benefit from a trunk or subtrunk pipe will be <br /> based on the cost of an eight inch (8") pipe along the same alignment for <br /> commercial or industrial zoned property and a six inch (6") pipe for all other <br /> areas. <br /> 8. Infrastructure Rehabilitation Projects <br /> Any project or portion of a project that reconstructs an existing water system <br /> facility. A rehabilitation project may occur on the existing alignment of the <br /> water line or on a new alignment, thus allowing the existing line to be <br /> abandoned or its status downgraded (i.e., trunk or subtrunk to lateral). <br /> B.
