Board certifies periodic maintenance assessment for Hatch Drain
Summary
The Allen County Drainage Board approved certification of a periodic maintenance assessment for the Hatch Drain that sets residential/agricultural rates at $5.00/acre (minimum $25) and commercial rates at $20.00/acre (minimum $100), producing an annual collection of $8,638.80.
The Allen County Drainage Board voted to certify a periodic maintenance assessment for the Hatch Drain (Doc #26‑041) during its March 19 meeting.
The Allen County Surveyor's Office recommended the assessment at $5.00 per acre with a $25 minimum for Residential/Ag/Vacant/Exempt parcels and $20.00 per acre with a $100 minimum for Commercial/Industrial/Utility/RR parcels. The board recorded an estimated annual collection of $8,638.80 and an eight‑year high balance projection of $69,110.40. "ACSO recommended approval," the minutes state. Mark Rekeweg moved to approve the certification and Ron Turpin seconded; the motion carried.
The decision formalizes the rates ACSO will certify for collection and establishes the eight‑year high balance the board used for fiscal planning. No public objections were recorded in the transcript for this item. The board then moved on to two similar certification items on the agenda.
