AN ORDINANCE extending the boundaries of Subdistrict
No. Four of the River des Peres Watershed (North Affton) of The
Metropolitan St. Louis Sewer District to include a contiguous area
of land in St. Louis County, Missouri, being a portion of a tract
of ground conveyed to Lake Park Corporation by Warranty Deed
recorded in Book 3588, Page 146 of the St. Louis County Records.
WHEREAS, the Board of Trustees has received a petition
praying for annexation to Subdistrict No. Four of the River des
Peres Watershed (North Affton) of The Metropolitan St. Louis
Sewer District of a contiguous area of land bounded as set forth
in the petition, and
WHEREAS, such petition was signed by all of the owners
of land in said area, who are also the holders of legal title to a
freehold interest in all of the land therein, and
WHEREAS, such area of land is capable of being
efficiently served by the sewers of such Subdistrict No. Four, and
WHEREAS, since creation of Subdistrict No. Four, land
included in such area proposed to be annexed has been reclassified
from cemetery use to residential use, has been subdivided
accordingly, is being so developed, and the developers propose to
provide at their own expense sewerage for such area and an outfall
sewer therefrom to connect with and use the Subdistrict No. Four
sewers, and
WHEREAS, those of the petitioners who are not exempt by
2
law from general taxation have offered as a condition of
annexation to pay by taxation from the date of annexation their
proportionate shares of the costs of servicing and retiring the
presently outstanding Subdistrict No. Four general obligation
bonds and to pay individually upon demand such sums as may be
required to place them in equality with the other Subdistrict No.
Four taxpayers as of the date of annexation, and
WHEREAS, the Board of Trustees finds that the granting
of the petitioners' prayer would be beneficial to the present
taxpayers of Subdistrict No. Four, by reason of the sharing of
taxes by the petitioners, and would in no way be injurious to
them, since the Subdistrict No. Four sewers were designed with
sufficient capacity to serve this additional area,
