WHEREAS, Subdistrict No. 227 (Gravois-Sappington Trunk)
was established on petition by Ordinance No. 1115, adopted
February 20, 1964, and
WHEREAS, investigation has shown that such area is not
adequately served by subtrunk 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 One Hundred
Seventy-five Thousand Dollars ($175,000.00), 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 subtrunk sanitary sewers in the area known as Subdistrict
No. 227 (Gravois-Sappington Trunk) is necessary in the interest of
the public health; that such sewers shall consist of approximately
6,500 lineal feet of 8 to 15 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 One
Hundred Seventy-five Thousand Dollars ($175,000.00); that the 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 private subtrunk 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 benefitted area of such subdistrict, exclusive of 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 March 12, 1964.
