CITY OF MAYWOOD PARK 26-15 MAYWOOD PARK DEBT AUTHORIZATION QUESTION: Shall the City borrow up to $30,000.00 from the State to fund a sewer feasibility study? SUMMARY: To fulfill commitments made to the Oregon Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ) and to the Department of Land Conserva- tion and Development (DLCD), the City Council desires to commission a study on the feasibility of constructing and financing sewers within its borders. It is expected that such a study will cost between $25,000 and $30,000. At present, the City does not have the funds in its treasury to pay for this study. However, a low interest loan from the State is available. The City Council would like to avail itself of this loan but is prohibited by section 7 of the City charter from incurring debt over $1,000.00 without voter approval. This ballot mea- sure if passed would grant such approval and would allow the City to borrow up to $30,000.00 from the State to be used to fund a sewer feasi- bility study. YES
