Explanation
This resolution appoints an Assessment Equalization Board to hear objections that have been made to the assessment for the Capital Crossroads Special Improvement District and to declare an emergency.
Chapter 1710 of the Ohio Revised Code governs the creation and operation of special improvement districts. Section 1710.06 provides that each participating political subdivision shall levy, by special
assessment upon specially benefited property located within a special improvement district, the costs of any public improvements or public services plan contained in a petition approved by the participating
political subdivisions, and also that the levy shall be made in accordance with the procedures set forth in Chapter 727 of the Revised Code. That section further provides that all rights and privileges of property
owners who are assessed under Chapter 727 shall be granted to property owners assessed under Chapter 1710, including those rights and privileges specified in sections 727.15 to 727.17. Those sections, in
turn, provide for the right of assessed property owners to object to the assessment and for the appointment of an assessment equalization board to hear any objections and make a report to the
legislative authority. Such an objection having been filed to the assessment to be collected for the Capital Crossroads Special Improvement District, it is necessary to establish an assessment equalization board.
Fiscal Impact: No funding is needed for this legislation.
