IV. CONSENT AGENDA
V. PUBLIC HEARINGS
Resolution 2013-222 - Energy Special Assessment District Notice of Intent for 2014
Staff provided background on this item and explained that one of the funding
methods available for energy conservation and renewable energy improvements is
to levy non- ad valorem special assessments on those properties that derive a
direct benefit from those improvements. This type of assessment is based on
benefit and collected along with property taxes using the uniform method. In order
to preserve this funding option, it is necessary for the Board to adopt a resolution
expressing its intent to use the uniform method of collecting, commencing in
November 2014. The resolution does not obligate the county to levy the special
assessment, rather it satisfies the legal requirement reserving the option to use
the uniform method of collection is an assessment is levied. Staff recommends
Board adoption of Resolution 2013-222 as outlined in the agenda memorandum
and authorization for the Chairman to sign documents as approved by the County
Attorney.
Commissioner Mowery addressed the day's Board meeting schedule.
