Filing
Filed with the Lakehaven Water & Sewer District as a condition of approval as an Authorized Sewer Service Contractor. The District fixes the amount at $10,000 by resolution and requires a surety bond on its own form — no cash or letter-of-credit substitute is offered. A property owner installing a connection on their own property may be exempt from using an authorized contractor, but that is an exemption from the contractor requirement, not an alternative to the bond. Authority is Lakehaven Resolution No. 2012-1198.
