For purposes of this | 14 | | Section, "facility planning area" has the same meaning as that | 15 | | term is defined under subsection (c) of Section 2.08 of the | 16 | | Wastewater Land Treatment Site Regulation Act.
| 17 | | (b-5) The township board of a township that operates a | 18 | | water or sewerage system may by ordinance collect a fair and | 19 | | reasonable fee, which shall not include the cost of labor and | 20 | | materials, for connection to any such system for the connection | 21 | | of a new service line from the new user's building or | 22 | | development to the township's main water or sewer line located | 23 | | in the adjoining utility easement. The standard used in order | 24 | | to determine a fair and reasonable connection fee shall be | 25 | | based solely on the size of the water meter to be installed for | 26 | | the service of the building or development. The fee shall not |

|
| 1 | | exceed, but may be less than, the connection fee for the | 2 | | applicable connection type, as described below. The | 3 | | restriction on fees imposed by this subsection shall not limit | 4 | | the right of the township to recover the actual cost of field | 5 | | labor and materials incurred by the township to connect the new | 6 | | user's building or development to the township's main water or | 7 | | sewer line in the adjoining utility easement. The actual cost | 8 | | of field labor shall not include wages that exceed one and | 9 | | one-half times the employees' normal hourly pay rate.
