WHEREAS, the Board has received a petition from
property owners in the area of Lithia Avenue in St. Louis County,
Mo., for the construction of a sanitary lateral sewer to serve
such area; and

improvement by reason of the fact that said area is not now served
by sewers; and
WHEREAS, it has been estimated that the probable cost
of the installation of such a sanitary lateral sewer will be
approximately Six Thousand Dollars ($6,000.00), 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;
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that a special benefit
subdistrict to be known as Special Benefit Subdistrict No. 59
