WHEREAS, the Board has received a petition from
property owners in the area of Wilshire Terrace and Central Avenue
in the City of Webster Groves, St. Louis County, Missouri, for the
construction of trunk sanitary sewers to serve such area; and
WHEREAS, investigation has shown the necessity for such
improvement by reason of the fact that said area is not now served
by sewers and the existing method of sewage disposal is a danger
to public health; and
WHEREAS, trunk sanitary sewers to serve such area must
be connected to a private system of sewers and sewage treatment
facilities; and
WHEREAS, it has been estimated that the probable cost
of the installation of such trunk sanitary sewers will be
approximately Five Thousand Dollars ($5,000.00), and that a fee of
Two Hundred Seventy-five Dollars ($275.00) per lot or parcel of
ground served must be paid for connection of such trunk sanitary
sewers to the private sewer system, and that the most practicable
method of payment therefor is by special tax bills, or other
evidence of special benefit assessments upon the land which shall
be found to be benefitted by such improvement;
