SUMMARY
APPROPRIATION
REQUIRED: N/A
During the September 28, 1994 public hearing for the Riverfront Assessment for the
installation of water main, water laterals and fire hydrants, the general public was advised
that the proposed cost was a preliminary figure and we would provide the final figure after
completion of the project. We are preparing our final cost figures and the final outcome
appears to be lower than our original preliminary estimate for the cost of construction.
However, during the construction period, we discovered that some adjustments would be
required because we included some parcels that would not receive any benefit and we also
discovered a few parcels that had not been correctly identified. After adjusting to these
corrections, our final estimate provided a slight reduction in the square footage cost
calculations. We decided however, that we should re -address the public hearing process for
two reasons. First is to make sure all actions are technically correct and the second reason
is to re -acquaint the City Council with the procedure because we will be addressing this
same type of assessment procedure with the expansion of the "County" utility system within
the City.
4r .
The first Resolution R-95-68, establishes the need for the improvement and Resolution R-
95-69 establishes the public hearing date of January 10, 1996. At the January 10, 1996
hearing, the final assessment will be known and revealed so a resolution can be prepared for
January 24, 1996 representing the final assessment figure.
Although all of the above actions are primarily ministerial in nature, it is important that
everyone understand the sequence of events as it relates to the various Resolutions.
RECOMMENDATION
1. Approve Resolution R-95-68
2. Approve Resolution R-95-69, establishing the public hearing date of January 10,
1996.

Fatal Heart
Disorderi
6 ,
NEW YORK (AP) — A newly
identified gene has been linked to
about 55 percent of cases of an in-
herited heart disorder that can
kill young, otherwise healthy peo-
ple.
It's the third gene to be found
for the inherited form of the ill-
ness known as "long QT syn-
drome,," which affects an
estimated 20,000 Americans and is
thought to cause 50 to 200 deaths a
year.
People with the disorder have
an increased risk for ,episodes in
which their heart races at 300 to
400 beats a minute, too fast to
pump blood effectively. These ep-
isodes lead to fainting and some-
times death. QT is simply a label
for a measure of the time it takes
for the heart to get set for its next
beat.
Finding the third gene will help
in diagnosis, said researcher Dr.
Mark Keating.
While the inherited condition is
rare, knowing the three genes
that cause it also suggests a pos-
sible strategy for treating a more
common problem of abnormal
heartbeat, called ventricular ta-
chyarrhythmias, which kills
some 300,000 to 400,000 Americans
a year, Keating said.
Most of those cases are caused
by heart attacks, but an unknown
number of people get a non -inher-
ited form of long QT syndrome as
a side -effect of certain medica-
tions or from other causes, Keat-
ing said.
The three genes tell heart cells
how to make structures called ion
channels that regulate heartbeat.
The genes cause trouble when de-
fective. So maybe channel mal-
functions that don't come from
gene defects cause other cases of
ventricular tachyarrhythmias,
Keating said.
Drugs that correct malfunction-
ing ion channels show promise for
reducing the death rate from in-
herited long QT syndrome, so
they might also cut the risk of
dangerous abnormal heartbeat
after heart attacks, Keating said.
Keating is a professor of medi-
cine and human genetics and an
associate investigator of the How-
ard Hughes Medical Institute at
the University of Utah. He and
other scientists report the finding
of the latest gene in the January
issue of the journal Nature Genet-
ics.

WHEREAS, the City of Sebastian, Florida ("City") finds that the in-
provements herein described are necessary to promote the public welfare of
the City and elect to defray the cost thereof by special assessments against cer-
tain properties to be serviced by the water main and extensions to the area de-
scribed as east of U.S. Highway #1 to the Indian River, with its southern
boundary located on the City's South city limit line and with its northern
boundary located on the City's north city limit line, hereinafter referred to as
the "Riverfront Water Project,"
NOW, THEREFORE, BE rr RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF
THE CrrY OF SEBASTIAN, INDIAN RIVER COUNTY, FLORIDA, that:
SECTION 1. PUBLIC PURPOSE: The City does hereby determine and de-
clare it is in the public interest to make water distribution system im-
provements to provide public water service for 310 parcels located within the
City of Sebastian for the Riverfront Water Project and assessments shall be le-
vied to defray the costs of the improvements in accordance with and in the
manner provided for in Chapter 170, Florida Statutes.
SECTION 2. NATURE OF IMPROVEMENT: The nature of the proposed
improvement is to provide public water service with water mains, services,
valves, fire hydrants and other water distribution facilities to the parcels ta-
cated in the Riverfront Water Project.
SECTION 3. LOCATION OF IMPROVEMENTS: The water mains, water
services, valves, fire hydrants and other water distribution facilities will be lo-
cated on U.S. Highway #1, Jackson Street, Madison Street, Coolidge Street
Cleveland Street, Martin Avenue, Indian River Drive, Davis Street, North Cen-
tral Avenue, Jefferson Street, Washington Street and an unnamed alley frctn
Martin Avenue running south 650+/- feet within the Riverfront Water Project
as shown in the attached map which is made a part of this Resolution by refer-
ence.
SECTION 4. PORTION OF EXPENSE PAID BY ASSESSMENT: The sum
of $601,348.00 shall be paid from the special assessments as the properties in
the Riverfront Water Project receive a special or peculiar benefit in the en-
hancement of the value of the properties arising from the improvement. The
City of Sebastian shall pay the sum of $148,652.00 from its improvements
funds for the public properties which receive a benefit from the assessment.
SECTION 5. MANNER OF ASSESSMENT: A special assessment in the
amount of $0.142786 per square foot shall be assessed against the land area of
each of the parcels which are benefited by the proposed improvement and are
designated on the assessment plat.
SECTION 6. PAYMENT OF ASSESSMENT: The special assessments shall
be due and payable and may be paid in full without interest within 45 days
from the date (the "Credit Date") of the Resolution of the City Council which
accepts the improvements after completion of the improvements. If not paid
in full, the special assessments may be paid in ten equal yearly installments of
principal, plus interest thereon. If not paid when due, the unpaid balance of
the special assessments shall bear interest at a rate of 8% per year, or at a rate
of 1% per year above the rate of interest at which the improvement bond(s)
which are authorized for the project and used for the improvements are sold,
whichever rate is less.
SECTION 7. DESIGNATION OF LANDS: The lands upon which this spe-
cial assessment shall be levied are all lots and lands adjoining and contiguous
or bounding and abutting upon such improvements or specially benefited
thereby and further designated by the assessment plat hereinafter provided for
and which is on file with the City Clerk and which is incorporated by this inf-
erence into this Resolution as if fully set out herein.
SECTION 8. TOTAL ASSESSMENT COST: The total estimated project
cost of the above -described improvements is shown to be $750,000 or the sum
of $0.142786 per square foot to be paid by the property specially benefited as
shown on the assessment plat on file with the City Clerk.
SECTION 9. ASSESSMENT PLAT: There is presently on file with the City
Clerk a plat showing the area to be assessed, plans and specifications, and an
estimate of the cost of the proposed improvements. All such documents are
open to inspection by the public at the Office of the City Clerk.
SECTION 10. ASSESSMENT ROLL: An assessment roll with respect to
the special assessments shall be promptly prepared in connection with the
special assessments.
SECTION 11. SECTION 170.14: The City imposed a special assessment
against certain properties for the Riverfront Water Project with an adoption of
Resolution 94-53 dated September 28, 1994. The City has undertaken the con-
struction of the Riverfront Water Project. The construction of the Project re-
veals that there needs to be changes in the plans for the Project, and the
charges and benefits to certain properties. Section 170.14 Florida Statute au-
thorizes the City to impose a new assessment if an assessment is irregular, de-
fective, or if the City shall have omitted to make such assessment when it
might have done so. The City finds that certain of the assessments set out in
Resolution 94-53 dated September 28, 1994, are defective and cannot be col-
lected. This resolution is for the purpose of causing an assessment to be made
for the Riverfront Water Project under the provisions of Sections 170.03 and
170.14 Florida Statutes.
SECTION 12. PUBLICATION: Upon adoption of this resolution, the City
Council of the City of Sebastian shall cause this Resolution (along with a map
showing the areas to be served) to be published once a week for a period of
two weeks in the Vero Beach Press -Journal before the public hearing required
by Chapter 170, Florida Statutes.
SECTION 13: UNCONSTITUTIONAL PROVISIONS: If any clause, sec-
tion, or other part of this Resolution shall be held by any Court of competent
jurisdiction to be unconstitutional or invalid, such unconstitutional or invalid
part shall be eliminated and shall in no way affect the validity of the other pro-
visions of this Resolution.
SECTION 14. CONFLICTING RESOLUTIONS: All Resolutions or parts of
Resolutions in conflict herewith are hereby repealed to the extent of such con-
flict.
SECTION 15. EFFECTIVE DATE: This Resolution shall take effect imme-
diately upon its adoption.
