The Special Assessment is to fund actions required for approach development and the permitting process along with on-water activities for enhanced methods testing. The budget for the 2025 through 2028 Waterways Special Assessment is a total of $3,000,000 with a $350,000 contingency being funded through carryover money from the CMT project. Per the 1991 Stipulated judgement, cost sharing from the three East Channel entities portion is estimated at $480,000. The remaining funds needed to be raised are $2,520,000 or $630,000 per year.
The Special Assessment for the remaining $2,520,000 will translate to 16 equal payments over 4 years payable quarterly beginning in May 2025. Each property owner will have a quarterly due which is outlined below:
Single Family Residence - dues will be $115 per quarter/$460 per year.
Townhomes, Landlocked, and Lake Tallac Residence - will pay a 75% portion at $86 per quarter/$344 per year
