WHEREAS, Subdistrict No. 86 (Scottdale) was established
on petition by Ordinance No. 320, adopted September 28, 1959, and
WHEREAS, investigation has shown that such area is not
adequately served by lateral 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 Two Hundred
Thousand Dollars ($200,000.00), and that the most practicable
method of payment therefor is by special tax bills, or other
evidence of special benefit assessments upon the land benefitted
by such installation,
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the construction of
adequate lateral sanitary sewers in the area known as Subdistrict
No. 86 (Scottdale) is necessary in the interest of the public
health; that such sewers shall consist of approximately 16,500
lineal feet of pipe varying from 8 to 12 inches 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 Two Hundred Thousand Dollars ($200,000.00); 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 benefitted by such improvement; and that such improvement
be constructed in said subdistrict, such facilities to flow into
or be connected with existing public subtrunk sanitary sewers
located approximately 200' outside the area described in said
Ordinance No. 320.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that special benefit
assessments for the entire cost of such improvement be levied
against all land in the above described subdistrict, whether
public or private, in the proportion that each such lot or parcel
of land bears to the entire benefitted area of such subdistrict,
exclusive of public streets, roads and alleys.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that a public hearing be held
within said 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 District not less than ten days in advance of the date
of such hearing. The foregoing Resolution was passed October 22, 1959.
