Ordinance No. 982 Page 3 of 4 (h) Drainage improvements. Storm drainage and ponding/basin systems are usually constructed to serve a specific drainage or "watershed" district. These drainage districts have trunk lines, which are large diameter pipes that transport large volumes of water from one or more drainage districts. Property within drainage districts that would receive benefit from a trunk storm sewers may be assessed a unit affiount of $400 per !at for a single f t residential lot. This amount would be determined and adjusted annually by resolution using th Engineering News Reeer-d (ENR). Multi family housing lots that exeeed one third aere would be assessed based on the number- of aer-es, multiplied by the unit eost of $1,200 per aer-e, ' amount of three $3,600. per the direction of the City Council. The remaining cost will be paid for by the Storm Water Surface Utility and/or by an ad valorem property tax paid by the entire community or by other funds that may become available to the city for infrastructure cost recovery. Should a project be initiated on a particular street that requires storm sewer laterals which would be connected to the trunk lines, the Surface Water Utility would fund these expenses. Notwithstanding the foregoing, all assessments shall be subject to the special benefit limitation to the extent required by state law. (i) Special conditions. Special consideration shall be given to the "age" of a street or utility system when determining the proportion of cost to be assessed to benefitted properties. If it is necessary to reconstruct or resurface a street or perform major repair/replacement work on sewer and water utilities, before a reasonable amount of time (ten to 12 years for resurfacing, 12 to 17 years for partial reconstruction and 17 to 25 years for total reconstruction) the assessment shall be calculated on a pro -rated basis. The remaining cost shall be recovered by means of the general ad valorem property tax paid by the entire community or by other funds that may become available to the city for infrastructure cost recovery. 0) Mailboxes. In projects involving new street construction, and mill and overlays, mailboxes will be grouped on gang posts in numbers logical to the spacing required. This practice will ensure the proper placement of the mailboxes, reduce potential roadside hazards and generally clean up the edge of the street. The cost of the new posts and installation will be added to the project. Residents of overlays and mill and overlays may request the new posts and installation, which will be added to the cost of the project. SECTION 2.
