Title
Resolution Authorizing Sanitary Sewer Improvement Charges for 2053 Newport Road ($17,877.00)
Memorandum
Your approval is requested to levy the fixed sanitary sewer improvement charge of $17,877.00 on the property known as 2053 Newport Road. In 2005, the owner signed an “Outside City Service Agreement” in order to receive City water services and pay the historical water improvement charge. The owner paid the water connection charges and connected the property to the available City water main. In order to fulfill obligations of that agreement, the owner requested annexation from Ann Arbor Township which was completed on December 27, 2007, as notified by the State of Michigan. Following annexation, the property owner has worked with Community Development to connect the property to the available sanitary sewer main as is required by Code. The applicable connection charges have been paid and the property is “active” for sanitary sewer as of June 11, 2008.
According to current procedures, the property owner needs to now pay the property’s share of the existing utilities through the City improvement charge levy as required under section 1:278, Chapter 12, of the Ann Arbor Code. The $17,877.00 Utilities Improvement Charge is to be levied and then made payable in 15 annual installments at 4.983% interest per annum on the unpaid balance.
It is therefore recommended that Council levy this improvement charge according to the terms described above.
