<br />property tax limitation in Section lIb, Art. XI of the Oregon Constitution as assessments for a local <br /> <br />improvement, not subject to the constitutional limitation of $1 0 per thousand of real market value. <br /> <br />Notice of the intent to so characterize the assessments was sent to the affected property owners prior <br /> <br />to the adoption of this resolution. <br /> <br />Section 4. F our of the properties proposed for inclusion in the local improvement district <br /> <br />are located outside the boundaries of the City. Under provisions of state law the concurrence of the <br /> <br />Lane County Board of Commissioners is required for inclusion of the properties in the local <br /> <br />improvement district. The City intends to seek that concurrence, and the properties will not be <br /> <br />included in the district without Lane County's concurrence. The City also intends to seek annexation <br /> <br /> <br />of the portion of Terry Street proposed for improvement that is currently outside the City. If the <br /> <br /> <br />annexation is approved, the septic system for one of the properties (Lydum) located within the public <br /> <br /> <br />right-of-way and within the limits of the proposed road improvements, will need to be removed. The <br /> <br /> <br />property owner is unable to secure permission from the County to construct a new septic system <br /> <br />because of the availability of a public wastewater system. The current system is functioning <br /> <br />properly, and its removal would not be necessary except for the proposed improvements. At the time <br /> <br />the assessments are imposed, consideration should be given to these and the other unique <br /> <br />circumstances regarding the street and sewer assessments for the L ydum property described in the <br /> <br />City's letter to the property owners dated September 11, 1998. If the annexation request is not <br /> <br />approved, the proj ect will be reevaluated. <br />Section 5. The City Council hereby declares that the construction of the Improvements, as <br /> <br />well as acquisition of rights-of-way or easements necessary for the construction, is for a public <br /> <br />purpose, is necessary for the public welfare, and is authorized under the laws of the State of Oregon <br /> <br />and Charter and ordinances of the City of Eugene, and is directed by this Resolution. <br />Resolution - 2 <br />
