<br />A common argument <br /> <br />The argument that <br /> <br />". . . there is a benefit that the property gains because it is located next to a second <br />lateral line. These properties may be divided into smaller parcels which then could <br />be developed and could benefit from access to the second line." [Page 10, 4th <br />paragraph, Findings and Recommendations - Jobs 2924,2925,2926, and 2927, <br />Santa Clara Sanitary Sewer Project 1995] <br /> <br />is not applicable. Every part of lots 1900 and 2000 is accessible to the existing sewer. <br />Furthermore, it is not the intent of the owners, who also reside on these residential lots, to <br />divide and develop them as separate parcels. <br /> <br />Exemptions already CJranted <br /> <br />According to Sue Malone, Santa Clara Sewer Project, (in a telephone conversation 5/13/95 <br />around 4:15 p.m.) an exemption from being assessed has already been granted to the <br />gasoline station and deli on the southeast corner of River Road and Green Lane (2585 River <br />Road - tax lot 2100). The decision was dated April 4, 1996, with the explanation that this <br />property is non-benefited by public sewer. <br /> <br />The reason it is non-benefited by the proposed public sewer is because it is connected, <br />through an easement down the western boundary of 62 Green Lane - tax lot 2000, to the <br />same sewer providing the connections to 62 and 84 Green Lane. <br /> <br />KFC restaurant at 2545 River Road - tax lot 2200 (immediately south of the gasoline station <br />and adjoining tax lot 2000) is also exempt because it is connected to the sewer that runs <br />along its southern edge. The same sewer being used by 62 and 84 Green Lane. <br /> <br />In Summary <br /> <br />According to the written policies governing the Santa Clara Sanitary Sewer Project and the <br />precedence already established by exempting from assessment the gasoline station and <br />deli on tax lot 2100, the owners of tax lot 1900 (84 Green Lane) and tax lot 2000 (62 Green <br />Lane) request exemption from all assessments relative to this local improvement district on <br />the basis that both properties are already served by the public sewer that extends the full <br />length of their southern boundaries and will not benefit from a second sewer to be built <br />along their northern boundaries. <br /> <br /> <br />Page 3 of 3 <br />Written testimony prepared for Public Hearing 5/15/95 <br />Accepted by City Engineer's office on 5/14/96 <br />
