Exhibit Q
City Engineer's Report
Sanitary Sewer Reimbursement District No.17
Background
This project will be constructed and funded under the City of Tigard
Neighborhood Sewer Extension Program(NSEP). Under the program the City of
Tigard would install public sewers to each lot within a project area. At the time
the property owner connects to the sewer,the owner would pay a connection fee
of $2,335.00 and reimburse the City for a fair share of the cost of the public
sewer. There is no requirement to connect to the sewer or pay any fee until
connection is made. in addition, property owners are responsible for
disconnecting their existing septic system according to Washington County rules
and for any other modifications necessary to connect to the public sewer. To be
considered for the program, a neighborhood needs to submit evidence of
resident support of a project. All five owners in the proposed district have
expressed support for the project. A project that included these five lots plus an
additional seven lots to the east was also considered. This project is not being
proposed because a survey of interest revealed that only one of the seven
owners supported the project.
Project Area-Zone of Benefit
An existing sanitary sewer line is located north of the intersection of SW O'Mara
Street and SW Hill Street, as shown on Exhibit Map B. The line would be
extended south 70 feet along SW Hill Street to the intersection of SW O'Mara
Street. The line would then extend east on SW O'Mara Street approximately 84
feet, and west on SW O'Mara Street approximately 304 feet. The line would
fve five properties. The properties along SW Hill Street are currently served
by lateral connections to the existing sanitary sewer downstream of the proposed
connection point and are not included in the proposed district. The proposed line
4 could be extended in the future.
4 Cost
9
The estimated cost for the sanitary sewer construction is$45,200. Engineering
and inspection fees amount to $6,100(13.5%) as defined in TMC 13.09.040(1).
The total project cost including these fees is$51,300. This entire amount should
be reimbursed to the NSEP fund as properties connect to the sewer and pay
a their fair share of the total amount.
In addition to sharing the cost of the public sewer line, each property owner will
be required to pay an additional $2,335 connection and Inspection fee when
rrr
connection to the public line is made, and will be responsible for all plumbing
costs required for work done on private property.
Reimbursement Rate
All properties in this area are zoned R-4.5 and have similar lot sizes as can be
seen in Exhibit Map B. Therefore,it is recommended that the total cost of the
project be divided equally among the eight properties included in the
reimbursement district. Resolution 98-51 limits this fee to$8,000 per owner for
connections completed within one year of final approval of the City Engineer's
Report.
Other reimbursement methods include basing the proportional share upon the
square footage of each property or by the length of frontage of each property.
Because all properties are similar in size, the square footage method is not
recommended, The length of frontage method is _also not recommended
because there is no need to extend the line the entire length of the one easterly
property on SW O'Mara Street, but the line will be extended beyond the entire
frontage of the one westerly property on SW O'Mara Street for possible future
extension.
Each property owner's estimated fair share of the public sewer line is
$10,260. Each owner's fair share would be limited to $8,000 to the extent
that it does not exceed $15,000,for connections completed within one year
of City Council approval of the final City Engineer's Report following
construction in accordance with Resolution 98-51(attached). In addition to
paying for the first $8,000, owners will remain responsible for paying all
actual costs that exceed$15,000.
Annual Fee Adjustment
TMC 13.09.115 states that an annual percentage rate shall be applied to each
property owner's fair share of the sewer line costs on the anniversary date of the
reimbursement agreement. The Finance Director has set the annual interest
'I
rate at 6.05%as stated in City of Tigard Resolution No.98-22.
i
Recommendation
It is recommended that a reimbursement district be formed with an annual fee
increase as indicated above and that the reimbursement district continue for
{ fifteen years as provided in the Tigard Municipal Code (TMC) 13.09.110(5).
' Fifteen years after the formation of the reimbursement district, properties
r connecting to the sewer would no longer be required to pay the reimbursement
fee.
