Item Summary
On December 7, 2021, a public hearing was held, and the City Council approved the first reading of the ordinance.
The purpose of the public hearing is to provide the opportunity for property owners in the Willow Bend Villas PID to speak in favor of, or in opposition to, the assessment to be levied in the Willow Bend Villas PID for 2022. A notice of public hearing was published in the Lubbock Avalanche Journal, and notices were mailed to the property owners on Tuesday, November 23, 2021, as required by the statute. At or on the adjournment of the hearing on proposed assessments, the governing body of the municipality must hear and pass on any objections to the proposed assessment.
The proposed assessment for the first year is for tax year 2022 which will fund the budget for FY 2022-23. The total estimated cost of services provided by the District is estimated at $136,852 over the next five years. The estimated annual cost rises from $7,000 in the first year to $33,434 in year five. The method of assessment for the Willow Bend Villas PID will be based on taxable value. The proposed assessment rate for 2022 is $0.15 per $100 valuation. All property will be assessed for 2022.
The funds raised by the assessment will be used to provide design, construction and maintenance of drainage improvements, parks and greenspace, along with any ancillary features or amenities including water features, lighting, signage, the repair and replacement of said amenities, and any other maintenance needed on projects in the District, as well as cover the cost of administering the PID.
Fiscal Impact
The estimated assessment that will be collected for 2022, based on projected values, is $11,813.
