After considering an assessment petition and the report of the director on the assessment petition at a city council meeting in the manner provided for by this chapter, the city council may, by resolution, grant the petition and levy assessment installments in lieu of payment of sewer system connection fees as requested therein if the city council finds that all owners of an interest in the fee title to the premises described in the petition have joined in executing the petition, that the premises are presently being served by a private sewer system consisting of a septic tank and leach field which will be abandoned at the time the premises are connected to the city sewer system, that levying assessment installments in lieu of payment of sewer system connection fees for the premises, either individually or in combination with other premises similarly connected to the city sewer system incident to the levy of assessment installments in lieu of payment of sewer system connection fees, will not seriously compromise the city's ability to fund any anticipated expansion of the city sewer system, and, where the premises are located in that part of the city sewer service area within the unincorporated territory of the county of Butte, that the county of Butte has entered into a joint powers agreement with the city which authorizes the city to levy such assessment installments on premises located within the unincorporated territory of the county of Butte.
In such resolution the city council shall describe the premises which are the subject of the petition both by legal description and by an assessor's parcel number, shall set forth the total amount of the sewer system connection fees which will become due and payable in accordance with the provisions of Chapter 15.36 of this code upon connection of such premises to the city sewer system, and shall order such sewer system connection fees, together with interest thereon, to be paid in 10 annual assessment installments, as provided for in the report of the director, together with any modifications thereto which are necessary to comply with the provisions of this chapter.
Following adoption of such resolution, the city clerk shall cause copies of the resolution to be served on each owner of an interest in the fee title to the premises which are the subject of the resolution, shall execute an affidavit or declaration attesting to such service and shall transmit a certified copy of the resolution with such affidavit or declaration attached to the city manager. In addition, the clerk shall transmit a certified copy of such resolution to the finance director.
