The CITY hereby acknowledges and agrees that any right to connect the CITY'S property to the COUNTY'S sewage system is subject to the terms, covenants and conditions set forth in the following Agreements and Orders as currently in effect or as amended: Settlement Agreement between the State of Florida Department of Environmental Protection, hereinafter designated as the "DEP", and the COUNTYdated July27, 1993; the First Amendment to the Settlement Agreement between DEP and the COUNTY dated December21, 1995; the First Partial Consent Decree and the Page 3 of 23 ORANGE BOWL FIELD AT MOORE PARK, ID# 20531 Second and Final Partial Consent Decree entered in the case of United States of America Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) vs. Metropolitan Dade County (Case Number 93- 1109 CIV -Moreno); the Consent Order between DEP and the COUNTY filed on April 29, 2004; and court orders, judgments, consent orders, consent decrees and the like entered into between the COUNTY and the United States, the State of Florida and/or any other governmental entity, and all othercurrent, subsequent or future enforcement and regulatory actions and proceedings. 4. PROVISION OF SERVICE AND CONNECTION CHARGES. The COUNTY will provide an adequate domestic water supply for the CITY'S property and will receive and dispose of sanitary sewage from the CITY'S property. The CITY shall pay water and sewer connection charges for all those units to be constructed on the CITY'S property subject to the limitations specified herein. The CITY acknowledges that, to the extent that water or sewer service will ultimately be rendered to the CITY'S property by a volume customer, the CITY is a new retail user provided water or sewer service from a volume customer, and acknowledges that it is responsible for payment of connection charges; however, in the event that water or sewer is provided directly by the COUNTY, the CITY acknowledges that it is a new retail customer of the COUNTY and accordingly also liable for payment of connection charges. The CITY may be considered both a new retail customer and a new retail user provided service by a volume customer in the event that the COUNTY provides water service to the CITY'S property and a volume customer provides sewer service, or vice -versa. The connection charges are based on the average daily gallons for the various building units and/or use as shown on Exhibit "B" attached hereto Page 4 of 23 ORANGE BOWL FIELD AT MOORE PARK, ID# 20531 and made a part hereof, multiplied by the applicable rates established by the COUNTY. The CITY intends to demolish, or has completed demolition of, a three hundred twenty-two seat (322) stadium previously connected to the COUNTY'S water and sewer systems representing an average daily gallonage credit of nine hundred sixty-six (966) gallons, and intends to construct and connect a one thousand five hundred (1,500) seat stadium representing an average daily gallonage of four thousand five hundred (4,500) gallons. Therefore, the agreed total average daily gallonage increase is three thousand five hundred thirty-four (3,534) gallons, resulting in combined water and sewer connection charges in the amount of twenty-four thousand seven hundred two dollars and sixty-six, cents ($24,702.66). However, water and sewer connection charges shall be calculated at the rates in effect at the time of actual connection to the COUNTY'S water and sewer systems. The DEPARTMENT'S current connection charge rates are one dollar and thirty-nine cents ($1.39) and five dollars and sixty cents ($5.60) per gallon per day for water and sewer, respectively. The water and sewer connection charge rates are subject to revision by the Board of County Commissioners at any time. The DEPARTMENT shall not, under any circumstances, render water and/or sewer service to the property until such time as the fees and/or charges specified herein have been paid in full. 5.
