Court of Appeals of Washington November 15, 2001, No. 19244-0-III (Irvin Water District No. 6 v. Jackson Partnership)

Sweeney, J.

— This is a dispute between real estate developers and Irvin Water District No. 6 over connection fees. The District provided the developers with water for fire and construction purposes. Later it substantially increased the connection charges. It did so before the developers actually applied for service and tendered the connection fees.
