UW -98 -05 -DS BACKGROUND A petition has been received from the residents of 59th Avenue in Cherrywood Estates requesting the County to supply potable water to its residents. We are now coming to the Board of County Commissioners to seek approval to begin design of the above- mentioned project. (See attached petition and plat map.) ANALYSIS There are 20 properties which may benefit from this proposed water line on 59th Avenue. The petition has been signed by 13 of the owners (65%). Eighteen of the properties are from .42 acre to .67 acre. The two largest properties are each greater than two acres in size with a single-family residence on each. These properties also contain some wetlands and a lake. Due to implied constraints as to future development, staff recommends a one -acre assessment for each of these two parcels. ( See attached schedule of parcels, lot sizes, and map, which displays the area to benefit from the assessment project.) This project is to be paid through the assessment of property owners along the proposed water line route. In the interim, financing will, be from the assessment fund. Design services will be provided by the Department of Utility Services. April 7,1998 50
