Fire Hydrant Assessr~ent Staff disagree with the assertion that the fire hydrant benefits the entire l.~D. As Hated an Page 3 of Mr.l.angan's letter, he recognizes that the area north of Babcock Lane may be an appropriate boundary far the hydrant assess- ment. At the hearing it was clearly pointed out by staff that, in the fu- ture, an add~t~onal hydrant ~s going to be required south of Babcock Lane to serge that area. Rroperty owners south Qf Babcock will be expected to pay for that hydrant thus supporting limiting this assessment to the area north oi= Babcock, staff, i n its deb i berati ans regarding the assessment of this foci ~ i ty, did confer with public safety in an attempt to determine an equitable distribu- t~on of oasts, It was determined that the service area far the hydrant was a iagical way to distribute the casts ~i.nce the municipal Cade does Hat address the method of assessment far such a foci 1 i ty. Since Camelot Mabi l e home ark had al read i nst e ~ ~ R y al ~ d al 1 requ~ red hydrants to serve ~ is area, i t was not inaiuded in the cast distribution. Upon review of the final cast. distribution far the hydrants, it was found that a calculation error was made i n the amount of approximately $~~p. Since redistribution of the assts would have increased same of the praperti es as- sessment a smal 1 amount and required notification ~certi f i ed mai l ~ and an additional the hearing with findings and recommendations, staff recommend that the City,City pick up the $~~0 cost. The property owners assessed far the hydrant will be informed of the net reduction in their casts. The aver- al 1 cast to redistribute, notify, conduct a heari ng and prepare re arts wain d far exceed the X10 ca t P ~ s thus making this a cast effective alternative. Staff does not agree with ~1r, langan's assertions, however, since the intent of the hearing was to discuss method of assessment, I will Hat address the bulk of his points . Staff recommends the hearings official approve the a - roach as outlined above and as o t ' ~ p u ~~ned ~n th+~ prev~aus memo to the hearings aff~c~a~. Sanitary Sewer ~ssessmerit
