uilding a skate paik on Sanibel could be B a terrific idea. I know a lot of my young friends, who use both inline skates and skate boards, are extremely excited about such a park.

Why is it so hard to devise a recreational needs master plan that can Editorial address these concerns? It's not rocket science. You do a survey — Scott Marteli Sanibel School students have already done one. For all the options, you investigate costs including location, insurance and staffing.

CITY OF SANIBEL RESOLUTION NO. 01 -40
A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF SANIBEL RESCINDING RESOLUTION 00-161, AND EXPRESSING ITS INTENT TO DECLARE A REVISED SPECIAL ASSESSMENT TO FINANCE A PUBLIC IMPROVEMENT AS AUTHORIZED BY THE HOME RULE PROVISION OF THE FLORIDA CONSTITUTION, GENERAL LAW AND THE SANIBEL CHARTER FOR THE EXPANSION AND EXTENSION OF THE SANIBEL SEWER COLLECTION SYSTEM; SAID PROJECT TO BE REFERRED TO AS THE "SANIBEL SEWER SYSTEM PHASE IIA EXPANSION PROJECT"; ADOPTING THE PROCEDURES SET FORTH IN CHAPTER 170, FLORIDA STATUTES; PROVIDING FOR A DESCRIPTION OF THE NATURE AND LOCATION OF THE IMPROVEMENT, THE MANNER OF LEVYING ASSESSMENTS, THE COST AND THE DESCRIPTION OF THE LANDS UPON WHICH THE ASSESSMENT SHALL BE LEVIED; AND PROVIDING AN EFFECTIVE DATE.
WHEREAS, the Sanibel City Council, at their May 15, 2001 meeting, discussed the difference in the methods used to calculate sewer assessments between Phase I and Phase IIA; and WHEREAS, at the conclusion of the May 15, 2001 discussion of assessment calculation methodologies, it was determined by motion, second and unanimous voice vote that the method of calculating all sewer assessments used to finance the various phases of sewer expansion projects would be the same as was used for Phase I; and WHEREAS, the City of Sanibel adopted Resolution 00-161 on December 19, 2000, which made the final decision to levy an assessment on the properties known as "Phase IIA, Rabbit Road" using a different method of calculation than was used in Phase I which resulted in higher assessments; and WHEREAS, in order to reduce the assessment amounts using the Phase I calculation methodology, the City wishes to rescind Resolution 00-161 in order to recalculate, revise and readopt the levy for the Phase IIA, Rabbit Road assessment area, the Plat of which was defined in Resolution 00-146; and WHEREAS, the City of Sanibel has constructed a sewer collection system in certain areas located within the City of Sanibel, referred to for this project as Phase IIA Assessment Area as more specifically described in Exhibit "A", a public improvement; pursuant to its Home Rule Power, general law, including without limitation Chapters 166,170, 180,381 and 403, Florida Statutes, and Sanibel Charter; adopting procedures set forth in Chapter 170, Florida Statutes; and WHEREAS, Chapter 170.03, Florida Statutes, provides that a municipality making public improvements when utilizing special assessments must adopt a resolution stating the nature of the improvement, die location of the improvement, the part or portion of the expense to be paid by the special assessments, the manner in which said assessments shall be made, when said assessments are to be paid, what portion, if any, is to be paid from the general improvement fund of the municipality, a designation of the lands upon which the assessments shall be levied and the total cost of the improvement; NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of die City of Sanibel, Lee County, Florida: Section 1. The City Council of the City of Sanibel, hereby rescinds Resolution 00-161 in order to recalculate the amount of the special assessments using the method approved for the Phase I Expansion Project consistent with Council action on May 15, 2001. Section 2. The City Council of the City of Sanibel, hereby reiterates and incorporates by reference the findings adopted in Resolution 00-146 adopted on November 21, 2000 including the need for the levy of special assessments for the public improvement project for the expansion and extension of the sewer collection system for the area described in Exhibit "A" and located within the City of Sanibel, Florida, to be referenced as the Sanibel Sewer System Phase IIA Expansion Project (the "Project"), which levy and special assess- ment includes all lots and lands adjoining and contiguous or bounding and abutting said improvements or which are specially benefited thereby and further designated by the Assessment Plat included in Resolution #00-146. Section 3. The City Council of the City of Sanibel hereby reiterates its intent to provide for the Project and for the payment of all or any part of the costs of such improve- ments by levying and collecting special assessments on the abutting, adjoining, contiguous or other specially benefited property under the authority given by the Home Rule Provision of the Florida Constitution, general law, including without limitation Chapters 166,170, 180,381, and 403, Florida Statutes, and the Sanibel Charter, and adopting the pro- cedures set forth in Chapter 170, Florida Statutes pursuant to Resolution 00-146 adopted November 21, 2000. Section 4. Pursuant to Resolution 00-146, the City Council of the City of Sanibel made a determination to construct a sewer collection system expansion on or in the vicin- ity of the property to be specifically benefited within that area described in Exhibit "A" and as reflected on the Assessment Plats showing the area to be assessed with plans and speci- fications and an estimate of the cost of the improvements on file with the City Clerk, Sanibel City Hall, 800 Dunlop Road, Sanibel, Florida, 33957, as of the date of adoption of this resolution. Section 5. The total final cost of the Project was $754,926.94. The revised portion of the total project cost that will be funded by this assessment is $207,321.52 (27.46% of project costs), the balance of which will be paid for by the City from a combination of Sewer User Fees and/or Voted Debt Service Ad Valorem Taxes. Section 6. The manner in which said assessments shall be calculated is as follows: The assessment shall be on a per parcel basis based upon the number of equivalent resi- dential connections located or pennitted on each of the described parcels in the Phase IIA Assessment Area. A per equivalent residential connection assessment has been calculated for each parcel in the Phase IIA construction area based upon professional analysis and estimate of the portion of the special benefits allocable to properties in the Phase IIA Assessment Area. The revised special assessment rate is $2,439.08 per Equivalent Residential Connection (ERC). Although there are 89 ERCis within the Phase IIA project area, for Special Assessment purposes there are a total of 85 ERCis, since four (4) ERCis, which are attributable to the US Fish & Wildlife Service, are deleted from the Assessment since diey have their own pump station. However, in addition to the Special Assessment, each developed property, including the four (4) ERCfs of the US Fish & Wildlife Service, (a total of 81 ERCs) will be charged a $2,828.64 per ERC connection fee and $1,174.70 per ERC Transmission Main Fee. The remaining, undeveloped, Eight (8) ERCs shall be required to pay the then current Connection Fee and Transmission Main Fee for each ERC, in order to obtain a building permit. The method of calculating the assessment for specially benefiting parcels is hereby amended to the methodology used in the Phase I Sewer Expansion Project, specifically calculated by: dividing the total amount of Project Costs in the Phase IIA Rabbit Road Assessment Area ($754,926.94) by the number of ERCis in the Area (85), to which is added the cost of the Transmission Main Charge ($1,174.70) and Connection Fee ($2,828.64). The sum of these amounts ($12,884.83) is then divided in half, from which the amounts alloc- able to the Transmission Main Charge and Connection Fee are subtracted in order to determine the Amount of the Special Assessment per ERC ($2,439.08). That amount is multi- plied by the number of equivalent residential connections (ERCis) for each parcel for the purpose of identifying the amount of the project costs funded by Special Assessments. The methodology and the amount of die assessment for each property has been set forth in a Revised Assessment Roll, a copy of which shall be kept on file with the City Clerk and is available for public inspection and which will be presented to the City Council. All assessments may be paid in twenty (20) equal annual installments, utilizing the uniform method of collection in accordance with Chapter 197, Florida Statutes, as amended, commencing in 2001 and ending 2020 in accordance with the schedule for financed payments (gross amount) contained in the Assessment Roll. If a single lump sum payment of the entire assessment on a parcel is made, by July 1, 2001, die payment shall be in accordance with the schedule contained in the Assessment Roll for lump sum payment (discounted or net amount). The lump sum payment (discounted or net amount) reflects the present value of a property's portion of the total amount assessed against benefiting properties. The financed payments (gross amount) reflect the lump sum amount adjusted upward by three and one- half percent (3 1/2%) per year (simple interest, calculated annually). Section 7. Upon adoption of this resolution, a Revised Assessment Roll shall be made which includes all requirements as set out in Section 170.06, Florida Statutes, and in this resolution. Section 8. Upon confirmation, the assessment shall constitute a lien against all properties assessed and enforceable in accordance with the law pertaining to special assessments. Section 9. Pursuant to Section 170.05, Florida Statutes, the City Clerk is hereby directed to publish this resolution one time in a newspaper of general circulation published in the City of Sanibel, or as otherwise may be required by law. Section 10. Effective Date. This resolution shall take effect immediately upon adoption.
