RESOLUTION No. of 21 2016
(Changing Funding Source For Enhanced Street Lighting From Special Assessment Areas to Monthly Fee)
WHEREAS, the City Council has determined that areas within the City that have enhanced street lighting, known as Lighting Districts No.1 (L01), No. 2 (L02), and No. 3 (L03), should pay for such lighting through a separate fee and that City should no longer utilize special assessment areas to collect revenue to pay for necessary maintenance and operations; and
WHEREAS, consistent with Section 17.95.300 of the City Code, the City Council will adopt an ordinance amending Salt Lake City consolidated fee schedule to include fees for enhanced street lighting that will allow for the collection of funds necessary to pay for the necessary maintenance and operations of enhanced street lighting within the City; and
WHEREAS, the City Council finds that accounts related to existing enhanced street lighting special assessment areas should remain open in order to collect outstanding balances owing, even though future assessments will not be made for these existing special assessment areas; and
WHEREAS, the City Council finds that there is good cause to collect enhanced street lighting fees beginning July 1, 2016.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of Salt Lake City, Utah:
1. To fund the operations and maintenance of enhanced street lighting the City shall utilize fees collected as allowed under the Salt Lake City consolidated fee schedule and Section 17.95.300 of the City Code.
2. Effective Date. This Resolution shall become effective on the date of July 1, 2016.
