§ 9-66.070. Kadota Fig Fee Area

A.

Purpose. Sanitary sewer facilities were completed under proceedings for Assessment District No. 83-1 (Kadota Fig Area). The assessment levied under Assessment District No. 83-1 are based upon the benefit each parcel received from the improvements at the time of the confirmation of the assessments. Those improvements provide identical benefits to new parcels which will be created through future land divisions. The Council established a program to provide for the reimbursement of moneys of the Simi Valley Sanitation Division to pay the obligations of the owners of future parcels through the collection of fees at the time of the filing of new Parcel or Final Maps.

B.

Fee area established. A fee area has been established in compliance with the authority provided in Map Act Section 66483 to provide for the payment of fees for the reimbursement of costs of sanitary sewer facilities in the Kadota Fig Area in conjunction with and coterminous with Assessment District No. 83.1 (Kadota Fig Area).

C.

Collection of fees. Fees shall be collected by the Department of Public Works at the time fees for subdividing the properties affected are paid and shall be apportioned by the City Engineer on the basis of benefits conferred on all parcels created after April 13, 1983, and in the same manner and amount as assessments are apportioned for Assessment District No. 83-1 (Kadota Fig Area).

D.

Deposit of fees/adjustments. The City Treasurer shall deposit fees collected pursuant to this Article into the account of the Simi Valley Sanitation Division. The fees shall be annually adjusted by the Simi Valley Sanitation Division in proportion to the change in the Engineering News Record Index.

E.

Special fund: Surpluses. Any surpluses remaining shall be refunded to the current property owners of property for which a fee was previously collected, the balance of the moneys in the same proportion which each individual fee collected bears to the total of all individual fees collected from the sewer fee area.
