Davis, P.E. <br />Public Works Director <br />Terry O'Brien <br />Assistant County Attorney <br />Y#q <br />SUBJECT: Establishment of a Municipal Service Benefit Unit <br />Street Lighting District <br />Whispering Pines Subdivision <br />Located South of 4th Street along <br />21st and 22nd Avenues <br />DATE: December 1, 1992 <br />DESCRIPTION AND CONDITIONS <br />In 1988, developer Ron Mitchell requested that the County <br />establish a MSBU (taxing district) to provide funding for <br />street lighting along 21st Avenue and 22nd Avenue between <br />4th Street and 2nd Street. At that time, Mr. Mitchell was <br />developing Whispering Pines Subdivision, a 34 lot <br />subdivision between 21st Avenue and 22nd Avenue having <br />frontage on one side of each street. In the process of <br />setting up the MSBU in 1988, it was discovered by staff that <br />the Final Plat document had not yet been recorded; <br />therefore, an assessment benefit area could not be <br />described. The MSBU project was therefore delayed. In <br />1989, the Final Plat was recorded, however, staff noticed <br />that the development had not yet been completed, and there <br />remains today several lots in Whispering Pines Subdivision <br />which are still owned by Mr. Mitchell (Vero Building <br />Corporation) and not occupied by a house. <br />A few residents of Whispering Pines, at this time, are <br />requesting installation of ten street lights that the <br />developer indicated would be included within the <br />subdivision, and staff is now proceeding with bringing <br />before the Board of County Commissioners an Ordinance to <br />establish the MSBU. In defining the benefitted area for the <br />street light project, staff is of the opinion that lots on <br />both sides of each street (21st Avenue and 22nd Avenue) <br />should be included in the district since it is impractical <br />to design street lighting that will light one side of a <br />street. As a result, a total of 70 lots have been included <br />in the assessment area, 34 of which are within Whispering <br />Pines Subdivision and the remaining 36 lots are within <br />Indian River Heights Subdivision. <br />To determine if a majority of the property owners within the <br />70 lot area are in support of the MSBU assessment of $30.00 <br />per lot per year, staff mailed a coy <br />to each lot owner in the area Witha pre-stf the attached letter <br />d response <br />Post card addressed to the County for each owner to indicate <br />his or her willingness to pay $30.00/year per lot for street <br />lighting. The response received from the County -was as. <br />follows: <br />22 <br />
