DEPARTMENT OF FINANCE
OF THE
- CITY OF SAINT PAUL
INTRA-DEPARTMENTAL COMMUNICATION
��
T0: Commissioner Jasnes J. Dalglish
FROM: J. Willia.m Donova.n, Valuation Engineer
DATE: November l, 1966
Heaxing in the matter of the assessment for the construc�=
tion of the Riverview Storm Water Relief Sewer, Contract 1, Phase 1,
. is scheduled for November 2. The assessment roll involves 1,136
paxcels of land, and it is probable that the heaxing wi11 be well
attended. -
The assessment is being spread at the rate of two thirds
of a cent per square foot for residential properties and one cent
per squaxe foot for apartment and cov�ercial properties. The follow-
ing is an analysis of the division of the costs of this project:
City Cost Total Cost
—� �0
Assessment $ 54,074.72 3•85r 2.•65
City Bond & Aid Funds 1,351,g60.74 g6.15 . � 66.28
Total City Cost`s $1,�+06,035.46 100.00 68.93
- Total West St. Paul
costs 633,73i.64 3i.o7
Total Expenditures $2,039,767.10 100.00
It should be emphas�zed that the costs �being spread are for•
the main trunk sewers which were constructed under the above contract
and that this construction does not solve all of the flooding problems.
It is anticipa.ted that additional expenditures estimated at $700,000
will be required to complete the storm water relief problem. It is
not the intent to re-assess the properties as the va.rious open cut '
lateral sewers required are constructed. Property owners who still ex-
perience flood.ing problems should report in writing to the Sewer Depart-
ment of the Department of Public Works to take care of the more serious
situations first. .A priority basis will be established for future sewer
construction by a cirainage co�nittee. Such extensions will be com- - ��.
pleted as soon as funds are allocated. �
�
. The primary reason for constructing storm water relief sewers
is to relieve existing sewers in an axea by providing more intercepting
points by which to drain the existing sewers. The usu.al case is that
the old or existing sewers are of an inadequa.te design to handle present
day peak flow's, thus causing manhole covers to be forced open and oc-
casionally� storm water is caused to back up into house sewer connections.
• T .. r �

November 1, 1966
Insofar as relief sewers are constructed for the purpose
of reducing these problems, it follows that the area involved receives
some.disti.nct local benefit over and above the general benefits accru-
ing to the City as a whole. This local benefit is reflected in this
case in a token assessment of two thirds of a cent per square foot
against residential properties and one cent per squaxe foot against
commercial; multi-dwelling, and industrial properties. Insofar as
many other areas have been assessed on this, or on a higher, basis,
� it follows• that a continuation of this assessment policy is neces-
sary to avoid any possible claim of favoritism or inconsistency on
the part of the City.
In. June of 1964 the Council, a�'ter considering a report
as to prior storm relief sewers already assessed and those in process,
adopted a policy raising the assessment rate to 72 mills per square
foot for residential properties and 1� per squase- foot against apart-
ment and co�ercial properties. The rates used for the assessment
• under consideration are those in effect at the time of the adoption
of the final order in December of 1961.
Attached hereto is a report showing the storm water relief
sewer systems either constructed or approved for construction by the
City Council and also including the method of financing these various
systems. To date the City has constructed 31 storm wa,ter relief sewer
systems of which 17 have been partially assessed against the proper-
ties located within the area being drained by the system. The assess-
ments thus levied embrace 6,777 parcels of land against which a total
of $322,892 has been assessed. �he remai.ning storm water relief sewer
systems'that have been constructed and the assessment for which is now
pending, embrace 5,952 parcels of land eligible for $33�+,421 in assess-
ments.
