On April 19 the Hastings City Council approved grouped resolutions (2026‑27 through 2026‑31 and related items) levying special assessments across several street improvement and extension districts, including Lockland Meadows and Elm Meadows subdivisions. City staff explained payment and financing options and that the sewer connection tap fee would not be assessed until a property owner requests connection.

Staff representative Lee told the council property owners will have 50 days to pay assessments in full or any portion without interest, or to finance improvements for up to 15 years at 4.25% interest; delinquent rates are 14%. The council approved the grouped resolutions by voice vote, 8–0. The staff presentation emphasized that most of the resolutions were developer‑driven at the request of landowners and that the action allows infrastructure work to proceed.
