PASSED: This-g'22M—day of 4 nom—1-999. or-City of Tigard ATTEST: l &Z u i=eA, City Recorder-City of Tigard j H Q� y Exhibit A City Engineer's Report Sanitary Sewer Reimbursement District No.13 Back roue' 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 I disconnecting their existing septic system according to Washington County rules and for any other modifications necessary to connect to the pLiblic sewer. To be considered for the program, a neighborhood needs to submit evidence of resident support of a project. All residents have recently annexed to the City in hopes of being considered for the NSEP program, and have shown a continuous interest for a project. Protect Area-Zone of Benefit An existing sanitary sewer line is located south of the intersection of SW 100th Avenue and SW Inez Street, as shown on Exhibit Map B. The line would be extended north 220 feet along SW 100"Avenue to the intersection of SW Inez Street. The line would then extend north on SW 100th Avenue approximately 130 feet, and west on SW Inez Street approximately 476 feet. The line would serve seven properties. The ten properties along the south side of SW Inez Street and along the Private Drive off of SW 100"' Avenue 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. There is no ne-d for future extensions of the proposed line. Cost The estimated cost for the sanitary sewer construction is $90,280. Engineering and inspection fees amount to $12,190 (13.5%) as defined in TMC at " 13.09.040(1). The total project cost including these fees is$102,470 H H In addition to sharing the cou:. of the public sewer line, each property owner will be required to pay an additional $2,335 connection and inspection fee when connec1don to the PuNie line is made, and will he responsible for all plumbing costs required for work done on private,property. Reimbursement Rate All properties in this area are zoned R3.5 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 seven properties included in,the reimbursement district. Resolution 98-51 authorizes City Council to limit 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 proportionai share upon the square footage of each property or by the length of frontage of each property. ^ncause all properties are similar in size, the square footage method is not ..:commended. The length of frontage method is also not recommended because there is no need to extend the line the entire length of the one northeasterly property on SW 1001h Avenue, but the line will be extended along the entire frontage of the one southwesterly property on SW 100(" Avenue that will not be served by this project. Each property's estimated fair share of the public sewer line is $14,640. The actual costs would be limited to the first$8,000 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. 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 rate at 6.05%as stated in City of Tigard Resolution No.98-22. 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). 1 Fifteen years after the formation of the reimbursement district, properties connecting to the sewer would no longer be required to pay the reimbursement fee. i i Submitted June 10, 1999 A u tin P.
