PETITION FOR ADOPTION OF A RESOLUTION
ORDERING AND DECLARING FORMATION OF
APACHE JUNCTION WATER UTILITIES
COMMUNITY FACILITIES DISTRICT
)City Attorney Glenn Gimbut
briefed the council on this item.He stated that Consolidated Water is in
bankruptcy and there is a proposed plan to auction sale the company;if the
city were to be interested in that,it would need to form a community
facilities district for the legal authority to be able to bid on that if the
auction should occur.He explained that the mayor would have to sign this
petition first before approval of the resolution that followed.
Mayor Perkins asked if there were
any questions from the council and opened the public hearing.
Ms.Carol Urich,201 E.Southern
Ave.,spoke in favor of this item.
Mr.Earl Laabs,1322 N.Goldfield
Dr.,asked if this issue will go to a public vote before the bonds are issued.
City Attorney Glenn Gimbut explained
there will not be a vote because the bonds that could be issued,if any at
all,will be revenue bonds that will be based solely and bought solely on the
revenues of the system itself;because the land involved in the district is
city property,which is tax exempt land,then the district which is the City
Council could only impose taxes on that land,but because it is tax exempt,
there can be no taxes on this issue.
Councilwoman Surra MOVED THAT MAYOR
PERKINS BE AUTHORIZED TO EXECUTE A PETITION FOR ADOPTION OF A RESOLUTION
ORDERING AND DECLARING FORMATION OF APACHE JUNCTION WATER UTILITIES COMMUNITY
FACILITY DISTRICT.

RESOLUTION NO.94-21,FORMATION OF APACHE
JUNCTION WATER UTILITIES COMMUNITY
FACILITIES DISTRICT
)Mayor Perkins opened the public
hearing.
Mr.Larry Stewart,manager and
general partner of Consolidated Water Utilities Limited,asked if the council
was looking to bid on their facilities in Apache Junction or the Maricopa
County system or the Colorado system.
City Attorney Glenn Gimbut replied
that at this time there were no directions or authorization for any kind of
bid in any way,shape or form;that was not a decision the council was making
tonight.
Mr.Stewart stated that the General
Plan was not specific as to the location of Consolidated Water facilities.
Mr.Gimbut replied that the General
Plan has been filed with the City Clerk's office and so it refers to the
Apache Junction area.
Mr.Stewart asked if the intent of
the council in this resolution was to bid on the Apache Junction system in
Pinal County and not on the Maricopa County and La Paz County systems.
Mr.Gimbut replied that the
resolution did not contemplate any bid.
Mr.Stewart stated the resolution
was not clear enough and so he was asking for clarification on that.He asked
if the council was trying to operate a system outside the Apache Junction
area.
Mr.Gimbut replied none of those
questions were before the council.
Councilwoman Surra explained these
items did not go beyond the formation of a community facilities district and
the possibility to bid if something should come up.She advised Mr.Stewart
that any other discussion was not appropriate at this time.
Mr.Stewart replied that if the
council intends to bid at the auction,they needed to contemplate buying the
systems outside Apache Junction also,because the auction would include all
the systems of Consolidated Water.

Councilwoman Surra stated that the
council's intention was to form a water community facilities district.
Mr.Stewart asked what was the
proposal from the city,in order to get in the water utilities business,about
the condemnation of the site that will be necessary in order for the city to
take over that part of the Consolidated Water certificate.
Councilwoman Surra answered that the
council was being asked to pass a resolution to form a water facilities
district.
Mr.Stewart replied that in order
for the water facilities district to be activated the city needed to condemn
that area,and he asked what was the council's intent.
Councilwoman Surra answered that the
council's intent was to pass a resolution to form a water facilities district.
,Mr.Stewart asked if any legal
actions were brought by Consolidated Water against the City Council,the city,
or the community facilities district,who was going to pay for that.
Councilwoman Surra answered that the
council makes those decisions as the subject comes up;they do not try to
anticipate that at a time when they are only passing a resolution to form a
water facilities district.
Mr.Stewart asked if the petition on
this means that the city will go out to the land owners or if the city is the
land owner,it is going to act alone.
Mr.Gimbut replied that was not a
question but an argument.
Mr.Stewart replied he did not think
so and asked again if the council intended to go out to the public on this at
all.
Mr.Gimbut advised the council that
they could answer that question if they wanted,but if they did not want,they
did not have to do it.
Mayor Perkins answered the council
was forming a district this evening.She asked if anyone else wished to speak
on this item;there being none,she asked for a motion.

SUPERSTITION MOUNTAINS CFD NO.1 TO
PROVIDE CONTRACTED SEWER SERVICE TO
CERTAIN PROPERTIES OUTSIDE THE
DISTRICT BOUNDARIES
)City Manager Mike Lee stated that
City Council approval is required,under state statutes,for the community
facilities district to extend sewer service beyond its district boundaries;
that contact has been made with groups and individuals outside the city
boundaries and the question has come up as to under what conditions would the
city consider allowing service to be extended to those currently not within
the city limits;that staff has come up with a proposed policy that would
basically require anybody or any properties outside the city limits to sign an
annexation petition to be effective as soon as that becomes possible;and that
properties that are within the city limits and outside of the district could
be automatically served by the district.
City Attorney Glenn Gimbut stated
that some council members have suggested that the signature on the annexation
petition be renewed for the next ten years instead of the five originally
proposed by staff.

need for indicating any number of years.
Councilman Hendricks questioned the
City Attorney Glenn Gimbut explained
that perpetuity of annexation petitions is not allowed by law and that the
annexation should be accomplished within a reasonable number of years.
Councilman Hendricks asked if they
could do it for twenty years.
City Clerk Kathy Connelly suggested
to make it renewable for two-year increments after their initial ten year
annexation petition period expired.
Mr.Gimbut agreed and advised
putting a limitation on it.
Mayor Perkins stated that those who
signed the annexation petition would not get the sewer service until after
their land was annexed to the city.
Mr.Lee clarified that it would be
at the time they signed the petition.
Mayor Perkins replied that was not
what council directed staff to do but rather that people could not receive the
service until after the annexation.
Mr.Lee stated that is not what he
recalled.He explained that state land,for example,might be between the
city and some of those properties who want to get the service,but the city
cannot automatically annex state land without state approval;so they will be
able to get service after they sign the petition and,as soon as the land can
be annexed,those properties would also be annexed because they have already
signed the petition.
Mr.Gimbut advised the council they
could change this proposal if they so decided.
Councilwoman Surra favored the
proposal as presented.
Councilman Perkins MOVED THAT
APPROVAL BE GIVEN TO THE SUPERSTITION MOUNTAIN CFD NO.1 TO PROVIDE CONTRACTED
SEWER SERVICE TO THOSE PROPERTIES LISTED ON PAGES 1,2,AND 3 OF THE DOCUMENT
DATED JULY 26,1994,SUBJECT TO THE FOLLOWING TERMS AND CONDITIONS:
