WHEREAS, Special Benefit Subdistrict No. 73 (Wheaton
Bel Nor Trunk) was established on petition by Ordinance No. 289,
adopted June 11, 1959, and
WHEREAS, investigation has shown that such area is not
adequately served by trunk sanitary sewers and that the public
health is affected, and
WHEREAS, it is estimated that the probable cost of
installation of such sewers will be approximately Seventy Six
Thousand Dollars ($76,000.00) and that the most practicable method
of payment therefor is by special tax bills, or other evidence of
special benefit assessments upon the land benefited by such
installation.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the construction of
adequate trunk sanitary sewers in the area known as Special
Benefit Subdistrict No. 73 (Wheaton Bel Nor Trunk) is necessary in
the interest of the public health; that such sewers shall consist
of approximately 6,100 lineal feet of pipe varying from 12" to 18"
in diameter, which shall be capable of efficiently serving or
draining the entire local drainage area; that the estimated
probable cost of such improvement is Seventy Six Thousand Dollars
($76,000.00); that the entire cost of such improvement shall be
paid for by special tax bills or other evidence of special benefit
assessments upon the land benefited by such improvement; and that
such improvement be constructed in said Special Benefit
Subdistrict, such facilities to flow into or be connected with
2
existing public trunk sanitary sewers located approximately 3,000
feet outside the area described under said Ordinance No. 289.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that special benefit assessments
for the entire cost of such improvement be levied against all land
in the above described Special Benefit Subdistrict, whether public
or private, in the proportion that each such lot or parcel of land
bears to the entire benefited area of such Special Benefit
Subdistrict, exclusive of public streets, roads and alleys.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that a public hearing be held
within said Special Benefit Subdistrict to afford all persons
interested in said improvement an opportunity to be heard; that
such hearing shall be held at such time and place as the Executive
Director shall determine, but not less than ten nor more than
thirty days after the adoption of this resolution; and that notice
of such hearing shall be given by the publication of notice in at
least one issue of a newspaper of general circulation within The
Metropolitan St. Louis Sewer Distract not less than ten (10) days
in advance of the date of such hearing.
The foregoing Resolution was passed on July 22, 1959.
