It is moved that the policy of the present City Council of the City of Tukwila be set forth in reference to the formation of sewer L.I.D. ±.s so that it will encourage cooperation of the residents of the area to be served and should in most instances be initiated at the request of those residents. The state statutes authorize two methods of initiating the L.I.D. The petition method is initiated by the local residents and the resolution method is initiated by the City Council. This Council favors the petition method and will require petitions except in instances involving unsanitary health conditions or other special circumstances which would render the resolution method as the preferable course of action. In the instances where the developer extension method would or could be used in place of the petition method, that method will also be preferred over the resolution method.
