The boundaries of the proposed district are described as follows: all that land as identified as tax parcel number 41. -2 -5, all together with the land survey, metes and bounds, and /or such other descriptions and maps as are on file in the Tompkins County Clerk's Office for the foregoing tax parcel number, all as more particularly described in the MPR, which is incorporated into this Resolution as if set forth here in full, there being approximately 48.4 acres of land in said parcel that is proposed to be included in the CWD (the balance of such parcel is already in the CWD); 2. The public improvements for such extension will be installed by and at the cost of the Developer and consist of water mains, hydrants, and service laterals, and any appurtenances necessary therefore. It is anticipated that up to 5,800' of 8" ductile iron water pipe /mains, together with required hydrants, curb services and meter pits, and building laterals with sizes to 2 NI VA be determined by SCLIWC, will be needed to serve the proposed 48 townhomes and 25 single family residences (to be built in phases), and to connect the same to the Hillcrest Road main terminus at 145 Hillcrest Road and to the Warren Road mains; 3. The maximum amount proposed to be expended by the Town of Lansing or the CWD for such extension is $0.00; 4. The one time estimated cost of connection, including hook -up fees, is estimated at $0.00 as the Developer is paying to hook -up all facilities and dwellings as part of the PDA, including the payment of SCLIWC connection fees and related hook up expenses, including, but not limited to, an approximate permit connection fee of $250.00, 3/4" meters estimated at $265.00 per meter, estimated F'-2" service line extensions from the future curb boxes at approximately $35.00 per linear foot, plus the cost of any necessary road boring /jacking expenses; 5. The annual cost to the typical property is estimated to be $286.00. The typical property is a single family dwelling measured by EDUs, and such cost was thus calculated as follows: (i) $150.00 per EDU for the CWD Operation and Maintenance; plus (ii) annual water consumption fees of $136.00 per EDU (computed as 40,000 gallons at $3.40 per 1,000 gallons). However, as the property is currently unimproved, there are no water costs anticipated in the first year, but if and when residences are constructed, the annual water cost is estimated at said amount of $286.00 per EDU; 6. No district financing is applicable to this project, all of which costs have been and will be paid solely by the Developer, being the owner - applicant; 7. The Map, Plan and Report are on file for public review and inspection at the Office of the Town Clerk; 8, The Public Hearing be and hereby is set for 6:20 p.m. upon April 20, 2011, at the Lansing Town Hall, 29 Auburn Road, Lansing, New York, and to thereat hear all persons interested in the subject thereof, being the extension of the CWD as aforesaid, to thereat take all evidence presented, and to thereat take such other or further action as is required or permitted by law; 9. The Map, Plan and Report describes in detail how the financing, hook -up costs, and other costs and expenses, were estimated and computed, and therefore complies with Town Law § 209 -d(1) as it constitutes the detailed statement therein required; and it is further RESOLVED, that the Town Clerk of the Town of Lansing, Tompkins County, New York, is hereby authorized and directed to (i) cause a copy of this Resolution and Order to be published in the Town's official newspaper not less than 10 nor more than 20 days before such public 3 M • i hearing, and posted on the Town's official signboard not less than 10 nor more than 20 days before such public hearing. y The question of the adoption of such proposed Resolution was duly motioned by Mrs. Wilcox, duly seconded by Mr. Christopher, and put to a roll call vote with the following results: Vote of Town Board ...
