A motion was made by Director
Willard Smith,duly seconded
and carried that the Chairman
of District 7 be authorized
and instructed to formally
request Sanitation Districts
1,2,3,5,6 and 11 to reduce
the cost of participation by
District 7 in the proposed sewerage program which the sanitation
districts are undertaking as a joint project.The purpose of
this is to lower the cost to District 7 of sewerage facilities
so that said district may participate in the proposed program
in accordance with the terms and intent of the limited partici
pation agreement whereby the tax rate in said District 7 will
not have to be in excess of 10 cents per 4~ioo.oo of assessed
valuation in said district.It is believed the following
facts justify such a reduction:
1.The estimated population and assessed property value
have not grown and increased in accordance with the population
survey,and it is further believed that such growth and in
crease predicted is not likely to take place in District 7.
2.The population estimate included the El Toro Marine
Base and the Lighter Than Air Naval Base,both located in
District No.7,both of which population centers are now
definitely not included or to be included as participating
organizations of District 7.
3.The provision of sewers or a trunk sewer line to the
eastern one-half of District 7 is neither likely nor probable
within the next 40 years,and that if the property owners in
that portion of District 7 are required to participate to an
extent in excess of 10 cents per ~l00.0O of assessed valuation,
they will be undt~1y burdened with something from which they
can derive no such benefit,and that their voting consent
was received by a promise in good faith of no taxation in
excess of 10 cents per 4~iO0.O0 of assessed valuation.
