Dear Mr and Mrs. May
I am writing you in response to your letter I recently received regarding questions
concerning the irrigation service at your property located at 728 South 10th Street.
The irrigation assessments are for the operation and maintenance of your irrigation
system Each of the irrigation systems operated and maintained by the City of Yakima
is separately owned by the people within that system. The Irrigation Division operates
and maintains each system separately from the others, by law, and keeps separate
accounts for each district. Your assessment is your share of the anticipated
• expenditures for 1991
The irrigation assessment rate for your property is not recommended for increase in
1991 The recommended rate is lower than it was in 1990 The 1990 Irrigation
Assessment on your property was $65.88 The 1991 Irrigation Assessment on your
property is $8.85 J= at $57 03.
City Council has tried to address your concerns regarding payments of the Irrigation
Assessments on a fixed income. They have done this by allowing up to four payments
to be made from the time you received your hearing notice until June During this time
frame, you could pay approximately $14 26 in March, April, May and June to satisfy the
irrigation charges
If you have further questions please contact me at 575 -6204

Dear Mr Adamson
Your property at 13 North 6th Avenue is not eligible for exclusion from the assessment

Your property was obligated by the original LID creating the irrigation system to pay a
share of the maintenance and operation costs based solely on the total area of your

by law, and keeps separate accounts for each district. Your assessment is your share
of the anticipated expenditures for 1991 Again, this share is based on the total area of
your property and IISZI on usage
Therefore, your property will am be dropped from the assessment rolls at this time.

Dear Ms. Gabbard
I am writing you in response to your letter I recently received regarding questions
concerning the irrigation service at your property located at 816 North 10th Avenue
The irrigation assessments are for the operation and maintenance of your irrigation
system Each of the irrigation systems operated and maintained by the City of Yakima
is separately owned by the people within that system. The Irrigation Division operates
and maintains each system separately from the others, by law, and keeps separate
accounts for each district. Your assessment is your share of the anticipated
expenditures for 1991
• Through the creation of the original Local Improvement District (LID) formed to install
the irrigation system, your property was obligated to pay a share of these annual
maintenance and operation costs.
Your irrigation system has not had a rate adjustment since 1987. At that time, the rates
were reduced approximately 9 %. During the last three years, labor and material costs
have increased to the point where an upward rate adjustment is necessary Although
a (35 +)% rate increase seems high, a 7,000 square foot lot owner will experience an
increase of $12 67 in the yearly assessment amount.
Further, Council has made a system of payments available to property owners this
year You may divide your assessment amount into as many as four payments (if they
exceed $10 00 per payment) prior to the June due date.
If you have further questions please contact me at 575 -6204

RE: Attached Irrigation Assessment Rate Notice
The amount on the proposed assessment for 1991 represents a 35% increase over previous
assessments. That's a little excessive, don't you think? One expects a 5 or 10%
increase every few years, but 35 %? Even gas prices don't jump that much at once'

Dear Mr. Throssell:
1 am writing you in response to your letter I recently received regarding questions
concerning the irrigation service at your property located at 615 South 21st Avenue.
The irrigation assessments are for the operation and maintenance of your irrigation
system. Each of the irrigation systems operated and maintained by the City of Yakima
is separately owned by the people within that system. The Irrigation Division operates
and maintains each system separately from the others, by law, and keeps separate
accounts for each clistrict. Your assessment is your share of the antidpated
expenditures for 1991.
Through the creation of the original Local Improvement District (LID) formed to install
the irrigation system, your property was obligated to pay a share of these annual
maintenance and operation costs.
The delayed starts for cleaning work at the MaClaren Reservoir you outlined in your
letter were due to equipment problems. The equipment was borrowed from the Street
Division and the Sewer Division. Through reciprocal agreements with the Irrigation
Division no direct charges were made to any Irrigation District during this period.
Further, your system is !1t connected with the MaClaren Reservoir and is not charged
for anv cleaning activities associated with its operation and maintenance.
The increase your district experienced is due to the costs for replacement of the pump
electrical service when the power pole serving your pump was replaced by the Power
Company and an approximately 20% increase in water share charges from the
Nachos and Cowiche Canal Company.
If you have further questions please contact me at 575 -6204.

Relative to Irrigation Assessment Dist. 450
Last year prior to filling the reservoir at
21st and Mc Laren Avenues, full crews arrived to clean
the basin complete with power equipment. After two
false starta on two different days and the complete
removal of all each day work finally started on the
third day. Were the wasted two days charged to us
users? Perhaps this year's assessment would
have been much less with proper preparation and
planning.
I see no purpose in attending a hearing that has
predetermined conclusions.

Dear Mr. Gray:
1 am writing you in response to your letter 1 recently received regarring questions
concerning the irrigation service at your property located at 901 North 4th Street.
The irrigation assessments are for the operation and maintenance of your irrigation
system. Each of the irrigation systems operated and maintained by the City of Yakima
is separately owned by the people within that system. The Irrigation Division operates
and maintains each system separately from the others, by law, and keeps separate
accounts for each (Astrid. Your assessment is your share of the anticipated
expenditures for 1991.
Through the creation of the original Local Improvement District (LID) formed to install
the irrigation system, your property was obligated to pay a share of these annual
maintenance and operation costs.
The increase in your irrigation assessment is the result of the replacement of the pump
serving your irrigation system. The old pump was in excess of 40 years old. It was
obsolete and wom to the point that it could no bnger pump any water.
The new pump took several weeks to secure and install. A larger pump was
purchased which produced increased delivery pressure Wring the last four weeks of
the season.
Any time your main line needs flushing, please call the Irrigation Division at 575 -6194.
We are available, at no direct charge to you, to provide this service. Debris in the
water is a common problem and cannot be completely eliminated under current
circumstance.
If you have further questions please contact me at 575.6204.
