Unless the context indicates otherwise, words imparting the singular number, include CONTAINED cffy comessrow METING Or, J H A_ 2 Z 1999 Resolution No. .9 552 the plural number, and vice versa. As used in this Resolution, the following terms shall have the following meanings, unless the context hereof otherwise requires: '"Commercial Property" means those properties with a Code Description designated as "Commercial" in the County Land Use Codes ("CLUC Codes") as specified in Appendix B, attached hereto. '"Cost Apportionment" means the apportionment of the Solid Waste Assessed Cost among all Property Use Categories according to the Demand Percentages established pursuant to the apportionment methodology described in Section 6 of this Initial Assessment Resolution. "Dwelling Unit" means (1) a Building, or a portion thereof, available to be used for residential purposes, consisting of one or more rooms arranged, designed, used, or intended to be used as living quarters for one family only, or (2) the use of land in which lots or spaces are offered for rent or lease for the placement of mobile homes, travel trailers, or the like for residential purposes. '"Estimated Solid Waste Assessment Rate Schedule" means that rate schedule attached hereto as Appendix C which is incorporated herein by reference, specifying the Solid Waste Assessed Costs determined in Section 8 of this Initial Assessment Resolution and the estimated Solid Waste Assessments established -2- 99- 552 in Section 8 of this Initial Assessment Resolution. " Industrial/Warehouse Property" means those Tax Parcels with a Code Description designated as "Industrial/Warehouse" in the CLUC Codes as specified in Appendix B, attached hereto. Section 3. Provision and funding of Solid Waste services. (A) Upon the imposition of Solid Waste Assessments for Solid Waste services, facilities, or programs against Assessed Property located within the City, the City shall provide Solid Waste services to such Assessed Property. A portion of the cost to provide such Solid Waste services, facilities, or programs shall be funded from proceeds of the Solid Waste Assessments. The remaining cost required to provide Solid Waste services, facilities, and programs shall be funded by available City revenues other than Solid Waste Assessment proceeds. (3) It is hereby ascertained, determined, and declared that each parcel of Assessed Property located within the City will be benefitted by the City's provision of Solid Waste services, facilities, and programs in an amount not less than the Solid Waste Assessment imposed against such parcel in the manner set forth in this Initial Assessment Resolution. Section 4. Imposition and computation of Solid Waste Assessments. Solid Waste Assessments shall be imposed against all Residential Parcels. Solid Waste Assessments shall be computed by the Director of Solid Waste in the manner set forth in this Initial Assessment' Resolution. The amount of the assessment imposed upon improved residential property within the -3- 99- 552 City is equal to the cost of the processing and disposal of solid waste generated from such residential property for the period of January 1, 1999 to September 30, 2000. The assessment is imposed equally upon all improved residential property located within the City. No profit is included within the partial year solid waste disposal assessment. The amount of the assessment -is apportioned to the properties subject to the assessment in an amount equal to or less than the benefit received by such properties. Section 5. Legislative determination of special benefit and fair apportionment. It is hereby ascertained and declared that the Solid Waste Assessed Costs provide a special benefit to the Assessed Property based upon the following legislative determinations. (A) Upon the adoption of this Initial Assessment Resolution determining the Solid Waste Assessed Costs and identifying the Assessed Property to be included in the Assessment Roll, the legislative determinations of special benefit ascertained and declared herein are hereby ratified and confirmed. (B) Solid Waste services possess a logical relationship to the use and enjoyment of improved property by: (1) protecting and enhancing the value of the improvements and structures through the provision of available Solid Waste services; (2) protecting the attractiveness, health, safety and welfare of intended occupants in the use and enjoyment of improvements and structures within improved parcels (3) better service to owners and tenants, and (4) the enhancement of environmentally responsible use and -4- 99-- 552 enjoyment of residential land. (C) All of the annual Solid Waste budget, a portion of which may be funded from special assessment proceeds, is required to meet anticipated demand for the delivery of solid waste services (D) It is fair and reasonable to use the CLUC Codes for the Cost Apportionment and the Parcel Apportionment because: (1) the Tax Roll database employing the use of such property use codes is the most comprehensive, accurate, and reliable information readily available to determine the property use and Building Area for improved property within the City, and (2) the Tax Roll database, within which such property use codes are maintained by the Property Appraiser, allows. for the development of an Assessment Roll with parcel designations compatible with those used on the Tax Roll in conformity with the requirements of the Uniform Method of Collection. (E) The data available in the CLUC Codes is useful because the CLUC Codes represent records maintained by the Property Appraiser with the most information relative to a particular property. (F) Apportioning Solid Waste Assessed Costs among classifications of improved property based upon historical demand for Solid Waste services is fair and reasonable and proportional to the special benefit received. (G) The size or the value of the Residential Property does not determine the scope of the required Solid Waste service. The potential demand for Solid Waste services is driven by the -5- 99- 552 existence of a Dwelling Unit and the anticipated average occupant population. (H) Apportioning the Solid Waste Assessed Costs for Solid Waste services attributable to Residential Property on a per Dwelling Unit basis is a fair and reasonable method of Parcel Apportionment based upon historical service data and is required to avoid cost inefficiency and unnecessary administration. Section 6. Cost Apportionment methodology. (A) The City determined the cost of solid waste service by analyzing data from the Department of Solid Waste related to the delivery of solid waste service to Residential Dwelling Units. The City provides garbage and trash collection to every Residential Dwelling Unit as defined in the City Code. The City transports and disposes the collected solid waste material to locations not under the control of the City. Consequently, the City pays what is commonly referred to as a "tipping fee" for said disposal. (B) The cost was garnered by determining the total cost of the service to the residential units, including but not limited to, equipment, salaries, and tipping fees. Those costs were then apportioned on an equal basis to each of the parcels with the Residential Property Use Category on a per dwelling unit basis. (C) The fact that any residential unit located in the City is occupied shall be proof that garbage or other refuse is being produced or accumulated upon such premises. However, a temporary residential vacancy, regardless of duration, shall not authorize a refund or excuse the nonpayment of the solid waste assessment. 99- 552 (D) Appendix B, attached hereto, contains a designation of Code Descriptions by Property Use Category with the CLUC Codes. Tax Parcels with a Multi -Family Residential Property Use Category, and Tax Parcels within the Single Family Residential Property Use Category designated as Cluster Home, Mobile Home, Condominium or Cooperative shall not be assessed because the City does not provide service to them. They shall, however, have service provided by a Commercial Solid Waste Collector as provided for in the City Code. Section 7. Parcel Apportionment methodology. (A) The apportionment among Tax Parcels of that portion of the Solid Waste Assessed Costs apportioned to each Residential Property Use Category under the Cost Apportionment shall be consistent with the Parcel Apportionment methodology described and determined in Appendix D, attached hereto, which Parcel Apportionment methodology is hereby approved, adopted, and incorporated into this Initial Assessment Resolution by reference. (B) It is hereby acknowledged that the Parcel Apportionment methodology described and determined in Appendix D, attached hereto, is to be applied in the calculation of the estimated Solid Waste Assessment rates established in Section 8 of this Initial Assessment Resolution. Section 8. Determination of Solid Waste Assessed Costs; establishment of initial Solid Waste Assessments. (A) The Solid Waste Assessed Costs to be assessed and apportioned among benefitted parcels pursuant to the Cost -7- 99 - 552 Apportionment and the Parcel Apportionment for the partial Fiscal Year commencing January 1, 1999, is the amount determined in the Estimated Solid Waste Assessment Rate Schedule. The approval of the Estimated Solid Waste Assessment Rate Schedule by the adoption of this Initial Assessment Resolution determines the ....amount of the Solid Waste Assessed Costs.. The remainder of such Fiscal Year budget for Solid Waste services, facilities, and programs shall be funded from available City revenue other than Solid Waste Assessment proceeds. (2) The estimated Solid Waste Assessments specified in the Estimated Solid Waste Assessment Rate Schedule are hereby established to fund the specified Solid Waste Assessed Costs determined to be assessed in the partial Fiscal Year commencing January 1, 1999. (C) The estimated Solid Waste Assessments established in this Initial Assessment Resolution shall be the estimated assessment rates applied by the City Manager in the preparation of the preliminary Assessment Roll for the partial Fiscal Year commencing January 1, 1999, as provided in Section 9 of this Initial Assessment Resolution. Section 9. Assessment Roll. (A) The City Manager is hereby directed to prepare, or cause to be prepared, a preliminary Assessment Roll for the partial Fiscal Year commencing January 1, 1999, in the manner provided in Section 197.3632, Florida Statutes.

The foregoing shall not be construed to require that the preliminary Assessment Roll be in printed form if the amount of the Solid Waste Assessment for each parcel of property can be determined by the use of a computer terminal available to the public. (B) It is hereby ascertained, determined, and declared that the method of determining the .Solid Waste Assessments for Solid Waste services as set forth in this Initial Assessment Resolution is a fair and reasonable method of apportioning the Solid Waste Assessed Cost among parcels of Assessed Property located within the City. Section 10. Method of collection. The Solid Waste Assessments shall be collected in substantially the same manner as provided in Section 197.3632, Florida Statutes. Section 11. Authorization of public hearing.
