PROBLEM/ISSUE STATEMENT
The assessment for Sidewalk SID 2803 (Alkali Creek) has been completed by the Finance Division and is ready to spread on the tax rolls. SID 2803 was originally spread based on bond cost and is now being re-spread based on construction cost. This project is for sidewalks along Alkali Creek Road.
ALTERNATIVES ANALYZED
The Council must hold a public hearing and then may:
- Approve the resolution; or
- Not approve the resolution, the tax payers will not be assessed, and the General Fund will be responsible for paying for the improvements.
FINANCIAL IMPACT
The costs associated with SID 2803 are assessed per lot. The net effective interest rate is 4.605%. Under the State Statute 7-12-4189, the City is required to add ½ of 1% for a total rate of 5.105%. The ½ of 1% will be used as additional security on bond issues, as stated in the final bond resolution. Interest earnings and prior collections are subtracted from the final construction cost and spread to the appropriate properties. Any remaining fund balances are used to call bonds.
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that a public hearing be held and Council passes the proposed resolution on September 26, 2011.
