3922 Water Rights FeeRESOLUTION NO. 3922
A RESOLUTION RATIFYING THE ADOPTION AND EFFECTIVE
DATE OF A NEW WATER RIGHTS ACQUISITION FEE PURSUANT TO
MOSES LAKE MUNICIPAL CODE SECTION 17.03.060
Recitals:
1. Moses Lake Municipal Code Section 17.03.060 provides that if water rights are
not available to be assigned to the City in connection with platting, then the City
council shall establish from time to time a fee to be paid in lieu of such
assignment of water rights.
2. The City Council adopted Resolution 2901 on August 14, 2007, establishing a fee
in lieu of water rights at $1,200.00 per acre of platted land.
3. In 2022, the City Council engaged its engineer to perform a review of this fee in
order to determine whether any adjustments were necessary.
4. Based upon the City Council’s review of the engineer’s report and
recommendation, the City Council has determined that a significant increase in
the fee is necessary.
5. On November 22, 2022, the City Council approved the water rights fee increase
to $3,500.00 effective that same date; this resolution ratifies that action.
Resolved:
1. Resolution 2901 is hereby repealed.
2. Pursuant to Moses Lake Municipal Code Section 17.03.060, the City Council
established the fee of three thousand five hundred dollars ($3,500) per acre of
platted land effective November 22, 2022. In the event of fraction of an acre of
land is platted, the fee for one acre of land shall apply. In the event of a fraction of
an acre being platted together with at least one acre of land, then the fee for that
fractional portion shall be in the same proportion as the fractional portion is to an
acre.
ADOPTED by the City Council of the City of Moses Lake, Washington, this 22nd day of
November 2022.
