All of the foregoing shall be in accordance with the maps, plans and specifications for the improvement now prepared and to be prepared by Hill & Ingman, consulting engineers to the City, which are hereby adopted. - 2 - Section 2. The City of Kent hereby specifies and adopts a system or plan for making additions to and betterments and extensions of the existing sewage collection and disposal system of the City with which has been combined pursuant to Ordinance No. 1338, passed by the City Council and approved by the Mayor on April 18, 1966, the system and plant for garbage and refuse collection and disposal of the City ( which combined systems are hereinafter referred to as the "system of sewerage of the City") , which system or plan shall consist of the improvements described in Exhibit "A" and Exhibit "B", attached hereto and by this reference made a part hereof. The City may modify the details of the foregoing system or plan where such modifications do not substantially alter the purposes of that system or plan. Section 3. The life of the foregoing additions and betterments and extensions is hereby declared to be at least thirty ( 30) years. Section 4. The estimated cost of the acquisition and construc- tion and installation of the above-described additions and betterments to the system of sewerage of the City is hereby fixed as near as may be at the sum of $6,413,000 for the improvements described in Exhibit "A" and $272,000 for the improvements described in Exhibit "B". Section 5. Subject to the provisions of Section 7 of this ordinance, the cost of the system or plan for additions to and betterments and extensions of the sewerage system of the City adopted by this ordinance shall be met and defrayed from any funds which the City may have for such purpose, including any moneys received from the Economic Development Administration and the Municipality of Metropolitan Seattle, as aforesaid, and by the issuance and sale of sewer revenue bonds of the City in the sum of not to exceed $1,750, 000 par value. The bonds shall be issued at such times and in such amounts or series as the City Council shall hereafter determine and shall contain such covenants and interest rates as the City Council shall hereafter approve. The bonds shall be payable from the gross - 3 - revenues received from charges for sanitary sewage disposal service, from charges for garbage collection and disposal service, and from the receipt of payments of assessments levied in Utility Local Improvement District No. 1 created by this ordinance. Such assessments shall be for the sole purpose of payment into the special revenue bond redemption fund hereinafter created for the payment of the revenue bonds authorized by this ordinance. Section 6. Pursuant to the provision of section 28, chapter 53, Laws of 1967 of the State of Washington, Local Improvement District No. 250 of the City, created by and described in Ordinance No. 1337, is hereby converted to a utility local improvement district to be known as "Utility Local Improvement District No. 1. " The improvement to be constructed and installed under and within Utility Local Improvement District No. 1 shall be that improvement described in section 1 of Ordinance No. 1337 as amended by section 1 of this ordinance. Section 7. Not to exceed $1,700,000 of the cost and expense of the improvement within Utility Local Improvement District No. 1, including as a part thereof, but not limited to, all cost items specified in RCW 35.44.020, shall be borne by and assessed against property specially benefited by such improvement included in Utility Local Improvement District No. 1, embracing as near as may be all property specially benefited by such improvement, and as for trunk sewers including as nearly as possible all of the territory which can be drained through the sewers and sub -sewers connected thereto as provided in RCW 35.43.040. In distributing assessments in the case of trunk sewers, there shall be levied against the property lying between the termini of the improvement and back to the middle of the block or 300 feet, whichever is the lesser, along the marginal lines of the area improved such amounts as would represent the reasonable cost of a local sewer and its appurtenances suited to the requirements of the property, and the remainder of the cost and expense of the improvement shall be distributed over and assessed against all of the property within the boundaries - 4 - of the District. With respect to any sewer lines to be constructed and easements across private property as a part of such sewer system improve- ment assessments for special benefits conferred by the improvement shall be the same as if such sewers were constructed in a public street. The City shall also add to the assessment of each parcel $150.00 for each side sewer stub installed to serve that parcel. The amount of the cost and expense of the improvement to be assessed shall be reduced by the amount of the grant from the Economic Development Administration of the United States Department of Commerce to be received for such improvement and any moneys paid to the City by the Municipality of Metropolitan Seattle to pay the cost of construction of such improvement pursuant to the contract entered into by the City and the Municipality of Metropolitan Seattle, dated May 18, 1967. Section 8. The special assessments to be levied and assessed upon the property within Utility Local Improvement District No. 1 shall be payable in twenty equal annual installments with interest at a rate to be hereafter affixed by ordinance not exceeding 6% per annum. In the case of default in the payment of any assessment when the same shall become due there shall be added interest at a rate to be hereafter affixed by ordinance of not to exceed 6% per annum, and a penalty of 5% which shall also be collected. Section 9. The City shall issue one or more series of sewer revenue bonds at such times as the City Council shall deem advisable. The sewer revenue bonds shall be entitled "Sewer Revenue Bonds, 1967, " with series designations following, if issued in series. Such bonds shall bear interest at an effective rate not to exceed 6% per annum, payable semiannually and shall be numbered from 1 upward consecutively within each series as issued. The bonds shall be issued in such series, shall be in such denomination and form, shall bear such date or dates and interest rate or rates, shall be payable at such place or places, shall mature serially in accordance with such schedule beginning not earlier one year after date of - 5 - issuance and ending not later than (30) years thereafter, or shall be term bonds, shall have such option of payment prior to maturity, shall guarantee such coverage and collection of rates, shall provide for such additional funds and accounts, and shall contain and be subject to such provisions or covenants as shall be hereafter provided by ordinance. The bonds shall be sold in such manner as the City Council of the City shall deem to be in the best interest of the City. Section 10. The gross revenues and benefits to be derived from the operation and maintenance of the system of sewerage of the City and the additions thereto and extensions and betterments thereof herein provided at the rates to be charged for sanitary sewage disposal service and garbage and refuse collection and disposal service on the entire system of sewerage of the City will in the judgment of the City Council be more than sufficient to meet all expenses of operation and maintenance thereof and to permit the setting aside into a special fund out of the gross revenues of the system of sewerage of the City, in addition to the special assessments to be levied and collected in Utility Local Improvement District No. 1, of sufficient amounts to pay the interest on the "Sewer Revenue Bonds, 1967," herein authorized to be issued and on the presently outstanding "Sewer Revenue Bonds, 1954, " dated April 1, 1954, "Sewer Revenue Bonds, 195 6, " dated October 1, 195 6, "Sewer Revenue Bonds, 195 9, " dated June 1, 195 9, and the "Sewer Revenue Bonds, 1966," dated May 1, 1966, as such interest becomes due and payable and to pay and redeem all of those bonds at maturity. The sewer revenue bonds herein authorized to be issued and sold shall be payable solely out of the special fund herein created and shall be a valid claim of the owner thereof only as against such special fund and the amount of the revenues of the system of sewerage and the special assessments pledged to such special fund and shall not be a general obligation of the City. Section 11. There is created and established in the office of the Treasurer of the City of Kent a special fund to be known as the "Sewer Revenue Bond Fund, 1967, " which fund is to be drawn upon for the sole purpose of paying the principal of and interest on the sewer revenue bonds herein authorized to be issued and sold and any additional sewer revenue bonds which may be hereafter issued on a parity of lien therewith under such terms and conditions as the City Council may prescribe. From and after the date thereof and so long thereafter as bonds are outstanding against such fund, the City Treasurer shall set aside and pay into that fund out of the gross revenues of the system of sewerage now belonging to or which may hereafter be belonging to the City including all additions to and extensions and betterments of that system at any time made, a fixed amount without regard to the fixed proportion, namely, an amount in addition to any special assessments levied and collected in Utility Local Improvement District No. 1 and in any utility local improvement district hereafter created the assessments in which will be payable into that special fund, which will be sufficient to pay the principal of and interest on all bonds payable out of that special fund as they respectively become due and to create such surplus and reserve, if any, that may hereafter be prescribed by ordinance. The gross revenues from the system of sewerage of the City and any special assessments levied within Utility Local Improvement District No. 1 are hereby pledged to such payment and the sewer revenue bonds herein author- zied and any future parity bonds shall constitute a charge or lien upon such revenues and special assessments prior and superior to any other charges whatsoever excluding charges for maintenance and operation, except that the charge or lien upon such revenues for such bonds shall be subordinate and inferior to the prior charge or lien upon such gross revenues for the presently outstanding "Sewer Revenue Bonds, 1954, " "Sewer Revenue Bonds, 1956, " "Sewer Revenue Bonds, 1959, " and the "Sewer Revenue Bonds, 1966. " Section 12. The City Council and corporate authorities of the City of Kent hereby declare that in creating "Sewer Revenue Bond Fund, -7- 1967," and fixing the amounts to be paid into it as set forth in this ordinance, they have exercised due regard to the cost of the operation and maintenance of the system of sewerage of the City and the debt service requirements of the outstanding "Sewer Revenue Bonds, 1954, " "Sewer Revenue Bonds, 1956, " "Sewer Revenue Bonds, 1959, " and "Sewer Revenue Bonds, 1966. " The City has not bound or obligated itself and will not bind and obligate itself to set aside and pay into such special fund a greater amount or proportion of revenues of the system of sewerage than in the judgment of the City Council will be available over and above such costs and maintenance and operation and debt service requirements of those outstanding bonds. No portion of the revenues of the system of sewerage of the City has been previously pledged for any indebtedness other than the outstanding "Sewer Revenue Bonds, 1954, " "Sewer Revenue Bonds, 1956, " "Sewer Revenue Bonds, 19S9, " and "Sewer Revenue Bonds, 1966. " Section 13. There is created and established in the office of the Treasurer of the City of Kent a special fund to be known as the "Sewer Construction Fund, 1967. " The proceeds received from the sale of the foregoing "Sewer Revenue Bonds, 1967, " shall be deposited in the "Sewer Construction Fund, 19 67 , " of the City and shall be used for the sole purpose of paying the cost of carrying out the additions to and betterments and extensions of the system of sewerage herein authorized and of paying the cost and expenses connected therewith. The City of Kent, through its proper officers and agents shall proceed with the making of those improvements and the calling of bids therefor in the manner provided by law. Pending the sale of the "Sewer Revenue Bonds, 1967, " the City may issue interest bearing warrants drawn upon the "Sewer Construction Fund, 1967, " to be paid out of the proceeds of the sale of the bonds or from payments from the Economic Development Administration or the Municipality of Metropolitan Seattle as aforesaid. Section 14. No property, any portion of which is within the area subject to that portion of the assessment representing the reasonable cost of a local sewer and its appurtenances for those pipelines described in Part II of Exhibit "A" , may connect to those improvements described in Part II of Exhibit "A" unless either that property shall have been subject to such local sewer portion of the assessments on the assessment roll for Utility Local Improvement District No. 1 or the owners of that property shall have paid prior to such connection a charge in lieu of assessment which shall be the equivalent of that local sewer portion of assessments applied to that property. No properties may connect to any improvement described in Exhibit "B" without first having paid a charge in lieu of assessment representing the fair portion of the cost of constructing and installing that improvement applied to that property. Section 15. The provisions of this ordinance shall supercede and repeal any provisions of Ordinance No. 1337 which are inconsistent herewith.
