As in the past, this committee, its corporate and congregational sponsors and its army of willing volunteers stand ready to offer their time, talent-- and, yes, a bit of their treasure--to ensure that more of our community's elderly and disabled homeowners can live with dignity in safe, decent homes. Elderly homeowners, especially those headed by low income persons, are growing in number and already represent a significant portion of the overall population. The elderly are custodians of many of the community's single-fami/y homes. Their challenge is to maintain this important community asset with declining or fixed incomes and, in many cases, impaired health. We want to help them continue to be our valued neighbom By repairing homes of long-time city citizens, Repair Affair helps to stabilize neighbor, hoods and enables positive role models to remain in the community. Often, our eiders are sheltering grandchildren and other younger family members, too! Repair Affair helps to provide a safer environment for these younger citizens who might otherwise be homeless. In 1997, the Southern Indiana Repair Affair Leadership Committee has taken on a fantastic challenge. Last year, they doubled their efforts and went from 12 homes to 24 homes aided during two events. Their corporate donors have remained loyal, but have asked Repair Affair to organize one 25-house "Mega-Event" on Saturday, June 14. The City of Jeffersonville has been a staunch supporter as Repair Affair has grown from an idea to a powerful way to aid both elderly homeowners and their neighborhoods. We ask you to continue that support, which last year totaled $7,500. With that level of support, we can reach 11 households in Jeffersonville. Please call us, if your prefer, with your questions and we look forward to discussing this matter during your Town Council meeting on the evening of Monday, April 7.

ORIGIN: Public Law 125-1987, Section 1 AUTHORITY: lC 8-1.5-5 LEGAL CONSTITUTION: Special taxing district created by ordinance of the local governing body; district boundaries coterminous with corporate boundaries of the municipality governed by a three-member Board of Directors of Stormwater Management. JURISDICTION: District has exclusive jurisdiction over the collection and disposal of stormwater within district. FUNCTION: Acquire, construct, install, operate, and maintain facilities and land for stormwater collection and disposal systems. FINANCING MECHANISMS: Special Taxinq District Bonds (bonds payable by special benefits tax levied across the district; subject to limit of 8% of the total net assessed valuation of the district). Assumption of liability_ incurred to construct the.stormwater system being acquired (purchase of an already constructed stormwater system from another entity or person; payments of debt acquired come from revenues of the deparlment and are made from the bond and interest redemption account). Service Rates (user fees charged to those who receive direct benefit from the improvement). Revenue Bonds (payable from revenues received by the department in service rates/user fees; debt service coverage of 125% required if user fees are the source of Wp6.1~u:user~torm. agr~-6-96 1 of 2 GROUP Fax :317-575-6936 Mar 2z~ P. 12/12 repayment). .Other Available Funds (general tax revenues, grants, etc.). REVENUE SOURCES: .~;oecial Benefits Tax (tax levied across the district to all properties which are subject to property tax, payable proportionate to the net assessed value of each property {$x per $100 of assessed valuationl); monies raised by this tax go directly to the Special Taxing District and, therefore, are not subject to the maximum levy established for the municipality). .Sen/ice Rates/User Fees ( Rates assessed and fees collected from those who benefit directly from a stormwater system improvement. For example, when a project area and project would be defined by a resolution of the Board, users of this project system would be identified, generally, as persons or eht/ties who had property in that defined area. The cost of constructing this system could then be paid by charging those identified users an equitable fee for their use of the system. An equitable fee would probably be based on.a formula which would take into account impermeability of user's soil, type of use of the property {residential. commercial, industria, etc.l, and size of the user's parcel. Therefore, user fee would vary across the District based on these defined project areas and the improvements and users in each. All user fees must be based on benefr~ a property owner derives from the system.) ALLOWABLE DISTRICT EXPENSES: Operation and Maintenance Depreciation Account (to be used for any improvements, extensions, or additions to the stormwater system) Paymgpt. of principal, and. Interest (and Debt.Se[v..... ce_Coveraoe~~, on Boods PROJECT INITIATION: Resolution of the Board of Director~ of the District, clefining scope of project and the property owners affected, and, depending on enabling ordinance, serving as the basis for the establishment of service rates/user fees for area defined by the project. COOPERATIVE PROJECTS: On repair, rehabilitation, and replacement of combined sewers, Stormwater Management Board and unit which owns, operates, and maintains sanitary sewer must negotiate a proportionate sham of costs for each entity.
