Board adopts ordinance 2026-001 setting $25 fee for SRI lien-assist program
Summary
The Delaware County Wastewater District adopted Ordinance 2026-001 to recover lien processing costs tied to the SRI lien-assist program, setting a $25 fee composed of $5 to the vendor and a $20 administrative fee.
The Delaware County Wastewater District board adopted Ordinance 2026-001 on Feb. 4 to recoup costs associated with placing certified liens through a vendor in the SRI lien-assist program. Speaker 2 explained the draft ordinance would return $5 to the vendor and retain $20 as an administrative fee, producing a total $25 charge to property owners for lien processing.
Speaker 2 said the ordinance "allows us to recoup the money that we are going to be billed for putting these liens on" and described the $5 vendor portion and the $20 administrative portion that the district would retain. One board member recalled a previous suggestion of a higher fee ($50) but the board discussed and agreed to the $25 draft as circulated.
A motion to adopt the ordinance with the $25 fee was made and seconded; the board voted on the motion and the ordinance was adopted as presented. The motion carried on roll call with no recorded opposition in the transcript. The board did not record a formal amendment to the fee amount during the meeting.
