City Attorney Schricker stated that if residential property owners did not pay the $200 -300 per connection, they would have no service, since no assessment district is involved and there is no financing arrangement available to them. In response to question, Mr. Addiego said that PG &E undergrounding funds cannot be used for connections, so the funds would have to come from the Capital Improvement Fund.
