PIONEER SPECIAL DISTRICT Considerable time was expended by the staff and council members in the creation of the Pioneer Special Service District. A new development can be annexed into the special service district for certain services, for which the district will charge a fee. This makes it possible for those living in a new development to pay for some of the increased costs to the city such as roads, lighting, etc. This mitigates the cost for people already established in the city. At the February 16, 2006, City Council Meeting, the operation, maintenance, and budget for the Pioneer Special Service District was discussed. Mr. Ken Martin advised the council that there would be at least 30 homes under construction and occupied in the near future in the district. He said that cost of services is rising. For example, three years ago a street light cost about $1,000; now they are over $1,650. City Administrator Bill Morris said that new residents will have to start paying fees for secondary water, parks, and other amenities. The fee would come on their monthly water bill. A public hearing on the adoption of the 2005 tentative budget for the Pioneer Special District as the final budget, and the 2006 tentative budget for Pioneer Special District including special fees for those living in the district was held on April 20, 2006. The public hearing was combined, but comments on each matter were taken separately. The 2005 final budget revenue and expenditures for 2005 were zero because the district was not operating at that time, however, the state still requires a budget. The proposed monthly fee was set at $40, which includes secondary water, $25.00; engineering and administration, $7.00; street lighting, $1.00; flood control, open space and recreation, $5.00; and curb and sidewalk, $2.00. Residents of the district will be billed monthly, with Bona Vista Water District collecting the fees on the monthly water bill. The budget proposed that $6,100 will be collected in 2006 from the district monthly service fees, for the period between July 1, 2006 and December 31, 2006. The service district provides these enhanced services to newly developed areas so the whole city does not have to pay for these costs. City Administrator Bill Morris advised that the developers will have to bring secondary water from the headgates to the Spencer Farms and Mill Creek Meadows subdivisions and that the city has a signed document showing that the developer is responsible. Mr. Randy Marriott will operate the pressurized secondary water system for the first two years, then it will be the responsibility of the city. Someone who understands how the secondary water system works and who will keep track of the ditch water when it needs to be turned in, etc., will be appointed at that time. Two ditches will feed the retention pond at Spencer Farms and ground water is also present in the pond. The cost to operate the secondary water system is $300 per
