Supreme Court of New Hampshire
Decided June 14, 1995No. 93-624PublishedCited by 12 opinions
1Opinion of the CourtBrock, C.J.
The plaintiff Board of Water Commissioners, Laconia Water Works (board) appeals the equitable decree of the Superior Court (McHugh, J.) which ruled that a certain charge levied on new users of water provided by the board was an illegally imposed growth impact fee. We affirm in part, vacate in part, and remand.
In 1987, the defendant, Mark A. Mooney, contracted with the board to obtain water service for an anticipated housing development. In the initial and subsequent contracts between Mooney and the board, Mooney agreed to pay a “system development charge” (SDC) imposed by the board.
