2) Public Hearing The public hearing is held to listen to comments and answer questions from property owners about sewers. The Public Hearing is held after a petition has been received from property owners representing at least 51 percent of the land area. Sometimes the public hearing may be called a "creation" hearing or an "enlargement" hearing. Property owners are notified by mail at least 14 days prior to the meeting. (A public hearing may be followed in two weeks by a BOCC Action in Olathe.)
3) ApportionmentThis public hearing is to receive public comment on the proposed split or "apportionment" of costs upon completion of a sewer project within a "benefit" district. This type of district is created to construct and finance sewer facilities to serve a limited geographic area, such as a septic tank neighborhood converting to public sewers. (A public hearing may be followed in two weeks by BOCC Action in Olathe.)
