DRAFT <br />11-7-24 <br />(i) <br />Amounts. The Member responsible for constructing a CIP Project, together <br />with any other identified benefiting Members, shall contribute toward the <br />project such amounts as identified in the Board's resolution ordering the <br />project and in accordance with the terms of the cooperative agreement <br />entered into for the project. The Board will consider the benefits of the <br />improvements to one or more subwatersheds in determining which Members <br />are benefited by the CIP Project. <br />(ii) Appeal. Any Member aggrieved by the determination of the allocation of <br />Member contributions toward a CIP Project may appeal the Board's <br />determination by filling a written appeal to the Board within 30 days of the <br />date of the Board's resolution. The Board shall refer a timely appeal to a <br />board of arbitration for a decision as provided herein. Failure of a Member <br />to file an appeal within the 30-day appeal period shall be deemed to have <br />consented to and agreed with the cost allocation as set out in the Board's <br />resolution. <br />(c) Commission Contributions. The Commission shall contribute toward the project <br />such amounts as identified in the Board's resolution ordering the project and in <br />accordance with the terms of the cooperative agreement entered into for the project. <br />The contribution from the Commission may include grant funds it has received for <br />the project. In such cases, the Board and the responsible Members enter into a <br />subgrant agreement, which may be part of the cooperative agreement, setting out <br />the obligations of the Member to ensure compliance with the gran requirements. <br />The Commission's contribution is in addition to any amounts contributed by <br />Members or other private or public entities. If the Commission's contribution is <br />dependent on an amount to be levied by the County, the contribution is contingent <br />on the Commission receiving such amount from the County. <br />(d) Maintenance Fund. The Commission may establish a maintenance fund to be used <br />for normal and routine maintenance of a work of improvement constructed in whole <br />or part with money provided by Anoka County. As provided in Minn. Stat. § <br />103B.251, subd. 9, the Board may add, with the County's consent, to the amount it <br />certifies to the County for collection on the taxes of all property located within the <br />territory of the Watershed or a subwatershed unit an amount for a maintenance <br />fund. The amount certified for the maintenance fund shall be distributed by the <br />County to the Commission together with the other amounts levied for the <br />Commission. Mailed notice of any hearing required by law related to the amount <br />levied for the maintenance fund shall be sent to the clerk of each Member <br />municipality at least 30 days prior to the hearing. The Commission shall deposit the <br />proceeds of said maintenance levy in a separate maintenance and repair account to <br />be used only for the purpose for which the levy was made. <br />5.7 Cost Allocation for CIP Projects. All capital costs incurred by the Commission shall be <br />apportioned to the respective Members on any of the following bases. <br />16 <br />
