W
e have received inquiries from residents about repaving of streets in the villages. All the streets in Meadow Pointe 1 are owned and maintained by Pasco County. Potholes will be filled if they are reported to the county at (813) 996-2411. However, when it comes time to repaving a street, the county will charge the owners of all benefited properties for the cost of the project. Unfortunately, property taxes do not fund local road improvements. The property owners benefited will be required to pay a paving assessment. The repayment can vary from five to 15 years depending on the project. Procedures are as follows:
• A resident contacts the paving assessment
office at (727) 834-3601 and a site visit is requested for the roads involved. The resident making the request provides their name, address and telephone number.
•
The paving assessment engineer conducts a site evaluation and prepares the initial cost estimate for the improvements requested.
•
The initial contact person (resident) is informed as to the nature of the work involved, along with a preliminary cost estimate. If it is decided to proceed with the project based on August 2013
this information, the initial contract person is then designated petition leader.
•
The paving assessment office sends out petition letters to all the benefited property owners explaining the proposed project and the maximum amount to be assessed after the work is completed. Also enclosed with the letter is a return envelope and a form on which the property owners vote yes or no for the proposed project. Before proceeding, 50% of those responding must be in favor of the project. However, even if the petition fails to receive 50% favorable votes the Board has the ultimate authority to approve the project where it believes it is in the best interest of the health, safety, and welfare of the residents in the boundaries of the proposed project.
• The Board of County Commissioners
holds a public hearing on the petition and, if approved, the petition becomes a project and is scheduled for construction.
• After the project is completed, all benefited
property owners are billed their share of the completed work regardless of whether they voted for or against the improvement project. v Page 5
