NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE BOARD OF ALDERMEN
OF THE CITY OF WICHITA FALLS, TEXAS, THAT:
The City of Wichita Falls plans to construct a paved
road as well as to deliver chlorinated, but not filtered,
water to each lot. In order to do this, the initial cost
only of delivering water and paving to each lot, will be on
a per front foot cost, must be amortized from leasing fees
over a period of five years. Money for construction of these
facilities is not available at the present time; therefore,
the amortizing fee will not go into effect until the services
are furnished, and then only for the next five years. This
sum will be approximately $100 .00 per year per lot for five
years.
Cost of leasing:
Water front lots will lease for $48.00 per year for a
75 foot frontage or $60 .00 per year for a 100 foot frontage.
Depth of lots will vary from 200 minimum up to 320 feet, de-
pending upon curvature of the high water line. Lots not on
the water front will lease for $36.00 per year. Access to
the water from these lots will be through public launch ramps
and piers not too distant from the off frontage site.
In addition to the annual lot lease, a minimum monthly
water charge will be made payable annually. As previously
stated, water delivered to each lot will be chlorinated but
not filtered. Monthly charges per lot is based upon lot
size primarily. For a lot 75 feet in width, the charge will
be $1. 50 per month or $18.00 per year; for a lot 100 feet in
width, $2 .00 or $24.00 annually. For those lots not on the
water front, the charge for water will be $1.00 per month or
12 .00 annually.
Summing up annual cost per lot in the following manner:
Annual Fee Water
100 foot water front lot 60 .00 2 .00 or $24.00 = $84.00
75 foot water front lot 48.00 1. 50 or $18.00 = $64.00
Lot not on water front 36.00 1.00 or $12.00 = $48 .00
