Merle:
This letter is relating to the transfer of billing information regarding street lights in Bella Housa to the City of Yelm.
As I have previously indicated, the City relies on the developer to notify us if the billing transfer of street lights dedicated as part of final subdivision does not happen in the normal
course of the final subdivision approval, as is the case in Bella Housa. As soon as the City becomes aware that the transfer did not take place, we assume responsibility immediately.
This is exactly what happened in the case of Bella Housa, where the City transferred the billing responsibility in January, immediately after your notification.
I also indicated that the only way the City would pay any charges prior to January, 2009, would be for you to work directly with Puget Sound Energy. The City will assume no back charges
or request PSE to change their billing records prior to your January notification.
Sincerely,
Grant Beck, Director
Community Development Department
