CR2013-128 Adopt Assesment Roll - Sanitary Sewer services - 2013 Street & Utility ImprovementsCity of Hopkins
December 3, 2013 Council Report 2013-128
ADOPT ASSESSMENT ROLL
SANITARY SEWER SERVICES
2013 STREET AND UTILITY IMPROVEMENTS
CITY PROJECT 2013-10
Proposed Action
Staff recommends the following motion: "Move that Council adopt Resolution 2013-079, Adopting
Assessment Roll, Sanitary Sewer Services, 2013 Street and Utility Improvements, City Project 2012-10."
Overview
As you are aware, many of the existing sanitary sewer services in the 2013 Street Improvement project were
Orangeburg pipe. State law requires the homeowners to replace this pipe when it is discovered. Because of
the financial burden already faced by homeowners from the street improvement project, Council offered
homeowners the option of having the service replacement cost placed on an assessment at 3.87% for 10
years. Each homeowner was required to sign a waiver of appeal in order to use this financing option.
Assessment calculations were based on the actual cost to install the services. Payments can be made without
interest until January 2, 2014. Payments can be made with interest accrued until November 29, 2014. First
payment through property taxes is due in May 2015.

special assessment has been granted and is terminated for any reason provided in that law and
Ordinance, all amounts accumulated plus applicable interest become due. The procedures to apply for
such deferment are available from the Assessment Clerk.

2. Such assessment shall be payable in equal annual installments extending over a
period of ten years, the first of the installments to be payable on or after the first
