PURPOSE:
To establish a dormant Special Service Area in accordance with the City's storm water control ordinance.
BACKGROUND:
The City's storm water control ordinance which was mandated by the counties' ordinance requires that a special service area be set up to maintain all storm water control facilities in the event that the owner thereof fails to do so.

The SSA would be set up, however, it would not levy a tax unless, and until, required by failure of the owner's to maintain the storm water control.
IMPACT STATEMENT:
Should developer fail to establish dormant SSA and fail to maintain areas encompassed within the SSA, City would not have mechanism by which to tax the owner's of property for the maintenance.
