John D. and Jay L.

Drainage Plan - Drainage facilities will be required to be constructed by the developer. General Budget Analysis 2002 Budget Report for the Department: Expenditures: State Revenue: Balance: Miles of Roadway in City: Cost per Mile: New Mileage within Area: Total estimated Maintenance cost: Anticipated State revenue /mile: Cost for Annexation Area per year: $7,427,294 $5,341,296 $2,086,165 @471 @$15,769 @.34 miles (1,800 feet) @$5,361.46 @$3,856 ($11,340 *.34 = $3,856) @$1,505 When fully developed, this annexation area is not expected to require major capital outlays for public works vehicles or equipment. Cost of road maintenance will be greatly reduced during the early years of this development in anticipation that major repairs will not be needed. B. Police Department The Annexation Area would be expected to be added to the already existing BEAT 22. Police patrols, traffic enforcement, and emergency responses will be part of the services the City will offer to this area. This proposed annexation would require officers to cover a relatively small additional area to this beat. The Annexation Area is located in an area of the city that is expected to continue to grow, both in commercial development as well as residential. At this time it is not expected that this annexation would cause calls for service to increase significantly and it is not anticipated that it will be necessary to increase police patrols beyond the already existing beat patrol at this time. The area under consideration is not expected to cause any unusual problems. Cost for servicing this area would be expected to be absorbed by the existing budget of the Police Department, as the addition of this area would not be significant to the point of having to increase any budgetary items. Police services and response time in this area can be expected to be comparable and consistent with that as in all other areas of the City. Police coverage to this area could begin immediately upon annexation and coordination of the conversion of the 911 emergency phone system for that area.
