WHEREAS, the Board of Trustees has received a petition
from property owners in a portion of Shanridge Subdivision, City
of Jennings, Missouri, not included in any subdistrict for the
construction of lateral sewers to serve such area; and
WHEREAS, investigation has shown the necessity for such
improvement by reason of the fact that said area is now served by
septic tanks, which are inefficient, and the effluent of which
creates a nuisance in said area and the surrounding territory; and
WHEREAS, it has been estimated that the probable cost
of the installation of such lateral sewers will be Three Thousand
($3,000.00) Dollars and that the most practicable method of
payment therefor is by special tax bills, or other evidence of
special benefit assessments upon the real property included in
such area;
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the construction of
sanitary sewers in said area is necessary in order to protect the
health of the residents therein, that such sewers shall be lateral
sanitary sewers available to each parcel of property in the area;
that the estimated cost of constructing such lateral sewers is
Three Thousand ($3,000.00) Dollars; that such costs shall be paid
for by special tax bills or other evidence of special benefit
assessments upon the real property in the area; and that such
lateral sewers be constructed in the area of Shanridge
Subdivision, City of Jennings, Missouri, described as follows:
Beginning at a point said point being the southernmost
corner of the north 1/2 of Lot #2 of Shanridge
Subdivision as recorded on page 38, book 44 of the St.

prolongations being also the southwest line of said
subdivision to the westernmost corner of Lot #5 of said
Subdivision; thence northeastwardly along the northwest
line of said lot to its intersection with the southwest
line of Shannon Avenue; thence southeastwardly along
said line to the easternmost corner of the north 1/2 of
said Lot #2; thence along the southeast line of said
north 1/2 of Lot #2 to the point of beginning.
which said area shall be and the same is hereby designated Special
Benefit Subdistrict No. 11 and such sewers therein to be connected
to an existing sanitary sewer of The Metropolitan St. Louis Sewer
District.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that special benefit
assessments be levied against all real property within the
boundaries hereinbefore delineated in the proportion that the area
each parcel of real property bears to the entire area within the
boundaries of the special benefit subdistrict; and
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that a public hearing be held in
the proposed Special Benefit Subdistrict No. 11 (Shanridge
Subdivision) at such time and place as the Executive Director
shall determine, and that written notice of such hearing be given
by the delivery thereof to a member of the household over fifteen
years of age at each residence in such benefit subdistrict, for
the purpose of determining whether or not it is in the public
interest that such improvement, or any part thereof, be made.
The foregoing Resolution was adopted July 16, 1956.
