Assessment charges for such sewers shall be computed at the
rate of $79 per linear foot of lot frontage payable over a period
of 20 years. The method used to calculate the sewer assessment is
as follows:
Case No. 1: A lot fronting on a street with sewer accommodations
will be computed by multiplying the lot frontage by $79 per linear
foot.
Case No. 2: A corner lot shall be assessed at the rate of $79
for each linear foot of lot frontage on the side of the lot that is
adjacent to the sewer.
Case No. 3: A corner lot where the sewer abuts both sides of
the lot shall be assessed by multiplying the longest side of the lot
by $79 per linear foot.
Case No. 4: A corner lot where the sewer abuts both sides of
the lot and has a frontage on the long side in excess of 150 feet,
yet has an area of less than 20,000 square feet, shall be assessed
for 150 feet of frontage at $79 per linear foot.
Case No. 5: A lot fronting on two streets (not a corner lot)
both of which are sewered and cannot be further subdivided based on
current zoning of the lot shall be assessed for the longest side at
the rate of $79 per linear foot.
Case No. 5a: A lot fronting on two streets (not a corner lot)
both of which are sewered and can be further subdivided based on current
zoning of the lot shall be assessed at the rate of $79 per linear
foot of lot frontage on each street.
Case No. 6: Lots that do not front on a Town accepted road and
that will receive sewer connections through a driveway, right-of-way,
easement, paper road, etc., shall be assessed at the rate of $79 per
linear foot for a minimum lot frontage of 50 feet plus the width of
the driveway, right-of-way, easement, paper road, etc.
Case No. 7: If the frontage of a lot is less than 50 feet, then
it shall be considered to have a minimum of 50 feet of frontage for
sewer assessment purposes and shall be assessed at the rate of $79
per linear foot.
If a situation arises that does not conform to the cases enumerated
hereinabove, the director of public works or his designee is hereby
authorized to compute the sewer assessment in accordance with the
method set forth in the ordinance, which in his sole discretion best
describes said situations.
Any prior sewer assessment payments made to the Town of Cumberland
for the projects listed herein will be credited to the new assessment
made pursuant to this ordinance.
The Finance Director shall permit deferred payment of annual
installments of sewer assessments made pursuant to article I of this
ordinance with respect to lots not connected to the Town's sewer system
which are owned and used as principal residence by a person or persons
(i) at least one of whom has attained the age of 65 or is disabled
and (ii) who had gross household income of $15,000 or less for the
preceding calendar year. Any person desiring to defer payment of an
annual installment shall apply to the finance director in writing
within 30 days after mailing of the installment bill for permission
to do so. No deferral shall be allowed unless the applicant files
a timely application setting forth the factual basis for the deferral
request. Any deferred payments shall be due not later than the earlier
of (i) any connection from the property to the Town's sewer system
or (ii) any transfer of the property. Interest will not be charged
on payments deferred pursuant to this section.
Sewer assessment rate bills shall be due and payable on the
date stated therein and all sewer assessment rate bills remaining
unpaid 31 days thereafter shall carry, until collected, a penalty
at the same percentage rate established by the Town for unpaid property
taxes, upon the unpaid amount and the current penalty charge for each
billing period.
The properties as listed in Exhibit "1997 Bond Sewer Assessment,
Monastery and Chapel Four Corners Area", attached to Ord. No. 01-34,
are subject to a sewer assessment charge of $68 per linear foot. Such
charge is payable in equal annual payments over the remaining life
of the bond, 18 years.
