AGENDA REQUEST
DATE: May 21, 2013
TO: Honorable Chairman and Members of the Board
FROM: John Hofstad
SUBJECT: Public Hearing for Sylvania Heights MSBU - Assessment Rate Change
DEPARTMENT: Public Works
BCC DISTRICT: 4
STATEMENT OF ISSUE: A public hearing to receive input regarding increasing the monthly
assessment rate for the Sylvania Heights Municipal Services Benefit Unit (MSBU).
BACKGROUND AND ANALYSIS: The Sylvania Heights MSBU committee met at a

$1 increase in their monthly assessment. Currently the assessment is not providing adequate
revenue to cover the monthly lighting expenses, thus, the proposed increase.
This public hearing will be to provide the community an additional opportunity to comment on
the proposed change. The public notice advertisement for the April 10, 2013 MSBU Committee
meeting, minutes of MSBU Committee meeting, financial spreadsheet, and the Public Hearing
publishing affidavit are attached.
OPTIONS: Approve/Disapprove the requested assessment rate change of $1 per month.
RECOMMENDATION: Approve increasing the Sylvania Heights MSBU assessment by $1
per month based on the request by the committee.
