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. Project Area - Zone of Benefit An existing sanitary sewer line is located in SW 121st Avenue as shown on Exhibit Map B. This line from would be extended east along SW Carmen Street serving seventeen lots. Cost The estimated cost for the sanitary sewer construction is $102,700. Engineering and inspection fees amount to $13,860 (13.5%) as defined in TMC 13.09.040(1). The estimated total project cost is $116,560. This entire amount should be reimbursed to the sanitary sewer fund as properties connect to the sewer and pay their fair share of the total amount. However, the actual amount that each property owner pays is subject to the City's incentive program for early connections. 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 connection to the public line is made. All owners 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 seventeen properties included in the reimbursement district. Resolution 01-46 limits this fee to $6,000 to the extent that is does not exceed $15,000 per owner for connections completed within three years 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. These methods are not recommended because there is no correlation between these methods and the cost of providing service to each lot or the benefit to each lot. Each property owner's estimated fair share of the public sewer line is $6,860. Each owner's fair share would be limited to $6,000 to the extent that it does not exceed $15,000, for connections completed within three years of City Council approval of the final City Engineer's Report following construction in accordance with Resolution 01-46 (attached). In addition to paying for the first $6,000, 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 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). Fifteen years after the formation of the reimbursement district, properties connecting to the sewer would no longer be required to pay the reimbursement fee. Submitted June 24, 2002 G STIN P.
