WHEREAS, Subdistrict No. 16 (Waddell-Weber) was
established on petition by Ordinance No. 311, adopted August 27,
1959, and
WHEREAS, investigation has shown that such area is not
adequately served by combined 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 One Hundred
Thirty-four Thousand Dollars ($134,000.00), 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 combined sewers in the area known as Subdistrict No. 16
(Waddell-Weber) is necessary in the interest of the public health;
that such sewers shall consist of approximately 4,400 lineal feet
of pipe varying from 8 to 42 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 One Hundred Thirty-four Thousand Dollars
($134,000.00); 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
combined sewers located at the edge of the area described in said
Ordinance No. 311.
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 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
(10) days in advance of the date of such hearing. The foregoing Resolution was adopted on January 7, 1960.
