(a)   When a water main or sanitary sewer is replaced or augmented by the
WSSC to provide increased water or sewer service capability to abutting
or connected property, and the necessity for the enlarged replacement
or augmentation arises from any change in the use or zoning category of
the property to be abutting or connected, the property derives a
benefit from the enlarged or augmented facility.
  (b)   Benefit charges for the construction of the water or sewer system
service shall be assessed, collected, and redeemed as provided in §§
5-101, 5-102, and 5-103 of this title for the initial construction
of the enlarged or augmented facility.
  (c)   Any unpaid portion of the initial benefit charge remaining shall be
merged with the new benefit charge resulting from the enlarged or
augmented facility, with the unpaid portion of the initial charge
included as an increment of the single resulting charge only, during
the remaining years of the initial charge.
  (d)   A property in the single family residential class which abuts the
enlarged or augmented facility and that is subject to, or was
previously subjected to and paid, a benefit charge for water or sewer
line construction may not have imposed against it the additional charge
until the classification of the property is changed by reason of change
in use or on account of a zoning class change requested by the
owner.
