Section 19-27a06 - Resolution; cost exceeding estimate; second hearing required; notice; continuation or discontinuation of project(a) The board of county commissioners may create a sewer district by resolution passed at any time within one year after the conclusion of the public hearing required herein. The sewer district shall be created substantially as requested by the petition or other authorized request except that no area shall be added which was not described in the notice of public hearing.(b) If at any time after creating a sewer district and prior to the letting of contracts for construction, the governing body of a sewer district determines that the cost of an improvement project will increase more than 10% of the initial estimated cost, the governing body shall hold another public hearing thereon. Notice of any subsequent hearings shall be given in the same manner as for the first hearing. After the hearing, the governing body may stop work on the project and dissolve the sewer district or approve the continuation of the project with any changes it deems necessary.(c) If the governing body determines that the continuation of the project is not feasible, all costs and expenses of the project, including preliminary planning, engineering, legal and work of other skilled persons employed by the governing body shall be assessed against the lots and pieces of property within the district. The special assessment shall be levied and assessed as one tax, in addition to other taxes and special assessments. Upon the order of the governing body, the county clerk shall place the special assessment upon the tax roll for collection subject to the same rebate and collected in the same manner as other taxes.L. 1983, ch. 99, § 7; July 1.
