12. Report on Method of Assessing Storm Sewer Projects
Robert Carroll of G. M. Orr Eiigineerifig Co. appeared betbre the council
and presented a report embodying four possible methods of assessing for storm
sewer projects. A discussion followed.
Motion by Shields, seconded by Rose, that spreading of assessment rolls
for storm sewer construction shall be by one of the following methods in the
discretion of the administrative staff; provided that variations shall be
allowed to equalize assessments within storm sewer districts:
DIRECT BENEFIT - NO EQUALIZATION IN DISTRICT
1) The trunk sewer shall be assessed over the entire district equally if it
is installed complete on one construction project.. If the trunk sewer is
installed in more than one construction stage, the total cost of the re-
maining trunk sewer shall be estimated based on the last construction pro-
ject and an assessment rate computed for total area served.. The area fully
served by the.trunk sewer extension shall be assessed this computed rate and
the balance of the project cost assessed against theproperty not fully
served. If the total trunk sewer cost is less than the amount to be as-
sessed under this method, the entire cost of the trunk sewer shall be as-
sessed only against the area fully served.
2) The balance of any storm sewer construction project shall be assessed
against the directly benefitted areas.
3) Future construction areas in the same district will have to share in ad-
ditional trunk sewer costs.as they are installed and bear the entire cost
of sewer installed to completely serve them whether equal to previous as-
sessments or not.
4) One parcel of land may receive several assessments for trunk sewer before
it is completely served and fully.assessed.
DIRECT BENEFIT - FIRST ASSESSMENT BASED ON ESTIMATED TOTAL COST FOR DISTRICT -
NO EQUALIZATION IN DISTRICT.
1) The cost of the sewer to complete the entire district shall be computed
based on'the first construction project in the district that completely
serves an area, and a rate for the entire district computed.
2) The area to be fully served shall then be assessed at the rate computed
in step 1 above.

3) The balance of the cost of the first project in the district shall then
be assessed against the area not fully served. If the total cost of the
j project is less than the amount to be assessed against the area fully
served under this method, only the cost of the project can he assessed and
shall be assessed only against the area fully served.
4) Future construction areas in the same district shall have the assessments
calculated under the same method with the exception that the areas pre-
viously completely served shall not be included in the assessment.
5) One parcel of land may receive several assessments before it is completely
served and fully assessed..
Carried.
