BOOK 90 PAE 58 <br />J U L 2 7 1993 <br />time residents should be given special consideration in terms of <br />impact fees. <br />Sam Adams, 6600 4th Street, had three concerns: the possible <br />location of the citrus highway on 66th Avenue, paying an assessment <br />for somebody else"s service, and possible higher taxes if his <br />property is rezoned. He believes that if he keeps his property <br />zoned agricultural, the assessment should be deferred until he <br />decides to change the zoning to a higher density. <br />Bob Schlitt, 505 66th Avenue, was in favor of giving the <br />property owners the option of being included in the urban service <br />area and of rezoning to a higher density. He is concerned with the <br />quality of his water and wants to receive the water service. He <br />thought everyone needed clarification on the points under <br />discussion. <br />Philip Mank, 6300 8th Street, stated that his property is <br />across the road from Pine Tree Park and he looks forward to having <br />the water service. He does not like depending on electricity for <br />his water supply because when electricity is off, he cannot get <br />water from his well. He stated that 20 years ago his property was <br />zoned residential and was changed to agricultural, and he is <br />satisfied with that. He did not care about the sewer lines but <br />wanted the water service. <br />Director Pinto explained that the master utility plan <br />addresses the capital expense of utilities and the construction of <br />utility lines within the urban service area; however, the master <br />utility plan does not include capacity for properties outside the <br />urban service area. This change was proposed because of requests <br />from residents who want service but are not able to obtain it <br />because they are outside the urban service area. If the Board does <br />not wish to build capacity for properties outside the urban service <br />area, that is fine, but the Utilities Department must know what <br />will be needed for purposes of designing and sizing the lines. He <br />stated that the people who live on the other side of that urban <br />service area boundary must realize that if they are not included in <br />this plan, they cut their property off from utilities in the <br />future. There is no coming back for seconds except at great <br />expense. The Utilities Department is not promoting this expansion, <br />but if there is the possibility that owners of property outside the <br />urban service area will want the service, it must be designed ahead <br />of time. <br />22 <br />M <br />
