All of the foregoing shall be in accordance with the plans and specifications therefor prepared by the City's Public Works Director, and may be modified by the City Council as long as such modification does not affect the purpose of the improvement. SECTION 2. There is created and established a local improvement district to be called Local Improvement District No. 357 of the City of Kent, Washington (the "District"), the boundaries or territorial extent of the District being more particularly described in Exhibit "A," the sanitary sewer improvements to be constructed are described in Exhibit `B", attached hereto and by this reference incorporated herein. -2- LID 357 Formation Ordinance 50400044 01 SECTION 3. The total estimated cost and expense of the improvement is declared to be $101,700. Approximately $90,000 of the cost and expense shall be borne by and assessed against the property specially benefited by such improvement included in the District, which embraces as nearly as practicable all property specially benefited by such improvement and the balance of such cost and expense shall be paid by the City. SECTION 4. In accordance with the provisions of RCW 35.44.047, the City may use any method or combination of methods to compute assessments that may be deemed to more fairly reflect the special benefits to the properties being assessed than the statutory method of assessing the properties. SECTION 5. No property, any portion of which is outside the District, may connect to those improvements constructed or made a part of such District unless either that property shall have been subject to the special assessments on the assessment roll for that District or the owners of that property shall have paid prior to such connection a charge in lieu of assessment, which shall be at least the equivalent of those assessments that would have been applied to that property had it been included within that District. SECTION 6. Local improvement district warrants may be issued in payment of the cost and expense of the improvement herein ordered to be assessed, such warrants to be paid out of the Local Improvement Fund, District No. 357, hereinafter created and referred to as the Local Improvement Fund, and, until the bonds referred to in this section are issued and delivered to the purchaser thereof, to bear interest from the date thereof at a rate to be established hereafter by the City's Finance Department Director, as issuing officer, and to be redeemed in cash and/or by local improvement district bonds herein authorized to be issued, such interest- bearing warrants to be hereafter referred to as "revenue warrants."

The City is authorized to issue local improvement district bonds for the District that shall bear interest at a rate and be payable on or before a date to be hereafter fixed by ordinance. The bonds shall be issued in exchange for and/or in redemption of any and all revenue warrants issued hereunder or other short-term obligations hereafter authorized and not redeemed in cash within twenty (20) days after the expiration of the thirty -day period for the cash payment without interest of assessments on the assessment roll for the District. The bonds shall be paid and redeemed by the collection of special assessments to be levied and assessed against the property within the District, payable in annual installments, with interest at a rate to be hereafter fixed by ordinance under the mode of "payment by bonds," as defined by law and the ordinances of the City The exact form, amount, date, interest rate, and denominations of such bonds hereafter shall be fixed by ordinance of the City Council. Such bonds shall be sold in such manner as the City Council hereafter shall determine. SECTION 7. For the purpose of paying all or a part of the costs of carrying out the improvements within the District pending the receipt of the proceeds of the issuance and sale of the bonds or short-term obligations referred to in Section 5, interfund loans from the General Fund and/or Street Fund to the Local Improvement Fund in the maximum aggregate amount of $90,000 are authorized and approved, those loans to be repaid on or before the issuance of such bonds or obligations from the proceeds thereof.

The initial interest rate on the date of each interfund loan shall be determined as of the last preceding interest payment adjustment date. SECTION 8. In all cases where the work necessary to be done in connection with the making of such improvement is carried out pursuant to contract upon competitive bids (and the City shall have and reserves the right to reject any and all bids), the call for bids shall include a statement that payment for such work will be made in cash warrants drawn upon the Local Improvement Fund. SECTION 9. The Local Improvement Fund for the District is created and established in the office of the Finance Department Director of the City. The proceeds from the sale of revenue warrants or other short-term obligations drawn against the fund which may be issued and sold by the City and the collections of special assessments, interest and penalties thereon shall be deposited in the Local Improvement Fund.
