ITEM TITLE: Resolution /~J.7J Approving special Sewer Repayment District
for properties along the south side of Toyon Lane
SUBMITTED BY:City Engineer
tf
(4/5ths Vote: Yes___ N~)
Joseph V. Bush, developer of the property on the north side of Toyon
Lane, has requested that a Sewer Repayment District be formed in order
to recover a portion of his cost of installing an 8-inch sewer main in
Toyon Lane. It is my
RECOMMENDATION: That the Council approve resolution to form the subject
Sewer Repayment District for Toyon Lane.
BOARD/COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION: Not applicable.
DISCUSSION:
At its meeting on September 10, 1975, the Planning Commission granted a
Zoning Variance to Joseph Bush so that he could develop his land on the
north side of Toyon Lane. He was required to provide a public sewer to
serve the proposed parcels.
On November 16, 1976, the City Council approved the subdivision
agreement by Resolution No. 8417. The public improvements were
installed by Mr. Bush and accepted by the City on January 17, 1978.
In February of 1980, Dwight Gove of 30 Toyon Lane (south side of street)
applied to this department to be connected to the City sewer in Toyon
Lane. In accordance with Ordinance 997, Mr. Gove was assessed our
standard amount of $16.00 per front foot of his lot totalling $1,280.00
Within the same month, Mr. Bush came to this department to claim the
money owed to him by virtue of the recent connection. He was under the
impression that a repayment district had been formed at the time he was
developing his property. A thorough search was made of our records and
revealed no indication that a district had been requested.
Upon learning that the district had not been formed, he submitted
verification of his costs of installing the sewer and requested
reimbursement for Mr. Gove's connection. According to Section 13.16.170
of the Municipal Code, there is no time limit for application to form a
repayment district.
Section 13.16.170 permits the City Council, upon recommendation of the
City Engineer, to approve and levy special sewer assessments upon
properties which benefit from the construction of a sewer and which have
not contributed to the cost of installation. A repayment diagram has
been prepared and is shown on the attached exhibit.

The total cost of designing and constructing 306 lineal feet of 8-inch
sewer main was $5,627.00. All the properties benefitting from the sewer
are zoned R-l and are occupied by single-family dwellings. The total
number of units that can be served by gravity flow is six. Dividing the
total cost by this number yields an assessment of $937.83 per dwelling
unit, plus 7% interest per annum. The two properties on the north side
(25 and 31 Toyon Lane) have contributed to the cost of construction.
I recommend that Council authorize the assessment of $937.83 to the four
remaining sewerable properties (namely, 21, 30, 38 and 48 Toyon Lane)
and reimburse this amount to Mr. Bush at the time of connection by the
owners. I also recommend that Council authorize payment to Mr. Bush in
the amount of $1,118.37 from the assessment fee charged to Mr. Gove, 30
Toyon Lane, at the time he connected and a refund of the excessive
charge be sent to Mr. Gove ($1,280.00 less $937.83, plus $180.53
interest, equalling $161.64).
Those lots outside the proposed repayment district (which would have to
use force-laterals by pumping) connecting to the sewer main shall pay
the standard frontage assessment as called out in Subsection A of
Section 13.16.170. The frontage assessment will go into the City's
sewer maintenance fund.
