PRESENT: Jeannine Kirby, Supervisor Jeffrey Cleveland, Councilman Herbert Beckwith, Councilman Stephen Farkas, Councilman In the matter of the establishment of Lansing Water District No. 17, Extension 5, Town of Lansing, County of Tompkins, State of New York, pursuant to Article 12 -A of the Town Law. WHEREAS, a map, plan and report have been prepared in such manner and in such detail as has heretofore been determined by the Town Board of Lansing, relating to the 187 January 06, 1999, continued establishment of a proposed water district in the Town; and, WHEREAS, such map, plan and report, dated December 31, 1998, and revised January 6, 1999, having been duly filed in the Town Clerk's Office in said Town on January 06, 1999; and, WHEREAS, said map, plan and report were prepared by T.G. Miller & Associates, P.C., Engineers and Surveyors, Ithaca, New York, duly licensed by the State of New York, showing boundaries of the proposed district, a general plan of the water system and a report of the proposed method of operation; and, WHEREAS, said map shows the proposed water district, water mains, fire hydrants and other related and necessary appurtenances; and, WHEREAS, the boundaries of the proposed district are described in Exhibit "A" attached hereto and made a part hereof, and, WHEREAS, the improvements proposed are as follows: SERVICE AREA - As shown on the map filed in the Town Clerk's Office and described Exhibit A. the proposed water district will include approximately 602 acres of land, more or less. There are presently 72 developed parcels and 16 undeveloped parcels within the proposed district extension. POPULATION TO BE SERVED - There are presently 72 consumption units in the District and it is anticipated that there will be a maximum of 14 additional consumption units at the time the District has been fully developed. Assuming, for planning purposes, that the average number of persons per living unit is 3, the number of persons to be served upon full development will be approximately 258. WATER SUPPLY - Water use in the Town of Lansing is estimated at 300 gallons per average day for each single family residence. Treated water requirements, estimated not to exceed an average of 21,600 gallons per day presently, and 25,800 gallons per day upon full development, will be purchased from the Southern Cayuga Lake Intermunicipal Water Commission (Bolton Point Water Supply). The Town of Lansing is one of the municipalities which own the system. The capacity of the Bolton Point supply is considered more than adequate to supply this district. WATER SYSTEM TO BE CONSTRUCTED - As shown on the map, plan and report filed with the Town Clerk, the proposed district extension will be serviced from approximately 13,315 linear feet of 8 inch ductile iron pipe and approximately 890 linear feet of 4 inch ductile iron pipe connected to Water District 17. Water District 17, Extension 5 will be served from the Town of Lansing's Storage Tank No. 4, on Emmons Road, which was constructed in 1996 as part of Water District No. 17. WHEREAS, the proposed method of financing is as follows: METHOD OF FINANCING - The project cost of construction of Water District 17 Extension 5 is proposed to be financed in part by a grant from the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development, and the remainder by the issuance of serial bonds to mature in annual installments and paid by the beneficiaries of the proposed district extension through a New York State Department of Environmental Conservation Revolving Loan Fund no interest loan. It is proposed that the annual serial bond payments be assessed against the benefited properties from two sources: fifty percent of the annual payment will be raised from the assessed value of real property within the district, and; the remaining fifty percent will be shared based upon consumption units. Consumption units are based upon the "Definition of Units for Purpose of Connection Charges" of the Southern Cayuga Lake Intermunicipal Water Commission. 188 January 06, 1999, continued 20 Year Serial Bond Assuming the project is financed with a United States Department of Housing and Urban Development grant in the amount of $4000,000, with the remaining amount financed with 20 year serial bonds a 0% interest through a New York State Department of Environmental Conservation Revolving Loan Fund no interest loan, then the estimated annual payment is calculated as follows: Total Cost HUD Grant Remaining Principal Interest Term Annual Payment = $6571400.00 = $4003000.00 = $2575400.00 =0% =20 years = $13,256 Estimated Annual Cost to Property Owner Based upon the dwelling units presently within the proposed district, the assessment charge would be $1.831/$1,000 of real property value plus $92.056 /consumption unit. The average assessed value of the properties within the district extension is $50,264.28, leading to an average charge for assessed value of $92.00. Using this average assessed value per dwelling unit, the annual cost for debt retirement the average single family residence is $184.00. The projected annual cost for debt retirement of the dwelling unit with the highest assessed value is $477.00. The projected annual cost for debt retirement of the dwelling unit with the lowest assessed value is $127.00. A breakdown of the charges per property under the formula is shown on the Engineer's Report. The estimated annual charge to the average single family residence for debt retirement, water charges, operations and maintenance is $512.00. WHEREAS, the method and costs of operation is as follows: METHOD OF OPERATION, The proposed extension will be serviced from Town of Lansing Tank No. 4, which has a volume of 250,000 gallons and overflow elevation of approximately 993.5 feet USGS. Storage is adequate to meet the consumption and fire flow needs of the extension. The proposed district extension will have between 43 psi+ and 150 psi+ of static main pressure. All connections to the system will be required to install an individual pressure reducing valve to maintain moderate household pressures and protect against pressure surges in the transmission pipe. Individual service line sizes will vary depending on the total distance from the main to the home and will be verified by Bolton Point staff. The recommended range for household pressure is between 40 and 60 psi. WATER USE FEES. MAINTENANCE AND OPERATING COSTS - The costs of maintenance and operating and system -wide improvements are recovered in the per- gallon price charged to all water users in the Town, which is estimated at $81.85 per quarterly billing for a single family residence. ONE TIME CONNECTION CHARGE For each household: Bolton Point Water Supply Connection Fee $250.00 3/4" Meter 50.00 3/4" PW 100.00 Inspection Fee 125.00 Water service line from curb box to structure (Cost will vary depending on length of service line and depth to bedrock, if encountered) January 06, 1999, continued estimated average 1801f @ $12 /lf 23160.00 Total Charge $205.00 AND URBAN DEVELOPMENT In connection with the proposed Water District 17 Extension 5, the Town of Lansing anticipates submitting an application to the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development for funding under the Small Cities Community Development Block Grant Program on or about February 3, 1999.
