(4) For multifamily structures (e.g., apartments, condominiums, mobile home communities), each individual unit shall be
one (1) ERU. For all other types of structures, the ERU calculation shall be based upon the ratio of Average Daily Flow as
computed pursuant to 327 IAC 3-6-11 in relationship to three hundred ten (310) gallons per day. For structures not listed in
327 IAC 3-6-11, the ERU shall be calculated as the relationship between the Average Daily Flow reported in the sewer
capacity certification for the structure and three hundred then (310) gallons per day.
(5) For customers with greater than twenty (20) ERUs as calculated pursuant to subsection (4) of this section, the ERU shall
be adjusted based upon the Peaking Factor as computed herein. The Peaking Factor shall be calculated by dividing
the Peak Daily Flow by the Average Daily Flow, both as reported in the sewer capacity certification. In no event will a
Peaking Factor less than 2.0 be used for purposes of the adjustment described in this subsection. The Peaking Factor
divided by 4.0 (the Peaking Factor for residential connections) will be multiplied by the number of ERUs for purposes of
computing the system development charge owed by the customer. The City Board of Works may execute a contract
with the customer authorizing an increase to the initial System Development Charge based upon actual usage data
that is collected after connection.

Estimate for System Development Charges
Belle Terre
South Bend, IN
(1) For purposes of this section "ERU" shall be defined as an equivalent residential unit which means a single family
residence. For purposes of customers that are not single family residences, one (1) ERU shall equal estimated wastewater
flows of three hundred ten (310) gallons per day. No customer will be less than one (1) ERU. There will be no partial ERU's.
The City shall round down to the closest applicable ERU calculation at all times.
(3) System development charges per ERU shall also be collected from existing customers undertaking activities
producing a permanent increase in wastewater flow of greater than three hundred ten (310) gallons per day. This
subsection shall not apply to an existing customer who has, by contract, purchased reserved capacity from the City so
long as the customer's flows remain within the reserved capacity. A permanent increase shall be deemed to have
occurred when the average flow rate for six (6) consecutive months exceeds the current flow rate by at least three
hundred ten (310) gallons per day.
Per the Ordinance of the Common Council of the City of South Bend, System Development Charges are summarized
below from Sections 17-79 and 17-80:
(2) Except as provided in Subsections (5) and (6) of this section, for every new connection to the South Bend Municipal
Sewer Works, a system development charge of one thousand one hundred forty-five dollars ($1,145.00) shall be
collected per ERU and additional portion thereof to be connected. All charges shall be billed by the City at the time the
application for service is filed.
Sec. 17-79. - System Development Charge for Wastewater inside and outside City limits.
(2) Except as provided in Subsections (5) and (6) of this section, for every new connection to the South Bend Municipal
Water Works, a system development charge of five hundred dollars ($500.00) shall be collected per ERU and additional
portion thereof to be connected. All charges shall be billed by the City at the time the application for service is filed.
(3) System development charges per ERU shall also be collected from existing customers undertaking activities
producing a permanent increase in water flow of greater than three hundred ten (310) gallons per day. This subsection
shall not apply to an existing customer who has, by contract, purchased reserved capacity from the City so long as the
customer's flows remain within the reserved capacity. A permanent increase shall be deemed to have occurred when
the average flow rate for six (6) consecutive months exceeds the current flow rate by at least three hundred ten (310)
gallons per day.
(a) The property owner may pay all charges in full prior to time the installation work is commenced. Prepayment of
expenses in advance under this section shall entitle the owner to a ten (10 ) percent discount of the total charge.
Sec. 17-85. - Methods of payment; prepayment with discount; installment plan.
(6) Where a prospective customer seeks to connect a new structure on property which replaces a prior structure of a
similar use what was located on the same property and which was connected to the South Bend Municipal Sewer
Works, no system development charge will be collected. For instance, if the prior structure was a single family structure
and the new structure is to be used as a multi-family structure, a system development charge, as contemplated herein
this section, shall be charged. The Board of Public Works shall make the final determination of whether the new property
structure is a similar use to the prior property structure for the purposes of this subsection.
(4) For multifamily structures (e.g., apartments, condominiums, mobile home communities), each individual unit shall be
one (1) ERU. For all other types of structures, the ERU calculation shall be based upon the ratio of Average Daily Flow as
computed pursuant to 327 IAC 3-6-11 in relationship to three hundred ten (310) gallons per day. For structures not listed in
327 IAC 3-6-11, the ERU shall be calculated as the relationship between the Average Daily Flow reported in the water
capacity certification for the structure and three hundred ten (310) gallons per day.
(5) For customers with greater than twenty (20) ERUs as calculated pursuant to subsection (4) of this section, the ERU shall
be adjusted based upon the Peaking Factor as computed herein. The Peaking Factor shall be calculated by dividing
the Peak Daily Flow by the Average Daily Flow, both as reported in the water capacity certification. In no event will a
Peaking Factor less than 2.0 be used for purposes of the adjustment described in this subsection. The Peaking Factor
divided by 4.0 (the Peaking Factor for residential connections) will be multiplied by the number of ERUs for purposes of
computing the system development charge owed by the customer. The City Board of Works may execute a contract
with the customer authorizing an increase to the initial System Development Charge based upon actual usage data
that is collected after connection.
(6) Where a prospective customer seeks to connect a new structure on property which replaces a prior structure of a
similar use what was located on the same property and which was connected to the South Bend Municipal Water
Works, no system development charge will be collected. For instance, if the prior structure was a single family structure
and the new structure is to be used as a multi-family structure, a system development charge, as contemplated herein
this section, shall be charged. The Board of Public Works shall make the final determination of whether the new property
structure is a similar use to the prior property structure for the purposes of this subsection.
Sec. 17-80. - System Development Charge for Water inside and outside City limits.
(1) For purposes of this section "ERU" shall be defined as an equivalent residential unit which means a single family
residence. For purposes of customers that are not single family residences, one (1) ERU shall equal estimated water flows
of three hundred ten (310) gallons per day. No customer will be less than one (1) ERU. There will be no partial ERU's. The
