§ 431.20. Findings and determinations.  


Latest version.
  • The city finds it to be in the interest of all citizens that the city establish, construct, operate and maintain a city-wide street lighting system. It is further found that the establishment, construction, operation and maintenance of street lighting promotes the general health, safety and well-being of the citizenry and provides a benefit to each and every parcel within the city. The city has determined that the cost of street lighting operation and maintenance may be offset by use of the city's general tax funds and by imposing a street lighting fee upon benefited parcels that are otherwise exempt from ad valorem taxation.
