WHEREAS, Subdistrict No. 166 (Ballas Road Trunk) was
established on petition by Ordinance No. 661, adopted December 7,
1961, and
WHEREAS, investigation has shown that such area is not
adequately served by sub-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 Three Hundred
Thirty Thousand Dollars ($330,000.00) 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 sub-trunk sanitary sewers in the area known as
Subdistrict No. 166 (Ballas Road Trunk) is necessary in the
interest of the public health; that such sewers shall consist of
approximately 13,700 lineal feet of 8 and 10 inch pipe, which
shall be capable of efficiently serving or draining the entire
local drainage area; that the estimated probable cost of such
improvement is Three Hundred Thirty Thousand Dollars
($330,000.00); 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 Subdistrict, such
facilities to flow into or be connected with existing public sub-
trunk sanitary sewers located adjacent to said subdistrict.
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 benefited 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 adopted January 25, 1962.
