It is found and determined that the owners of all the property within the NEESSMID have a present and potential benefit from the condition, development, and maintenance of the district, and that all the property within the district is related by virtue of its location within the described district.
[Ord. 2001-257 § 5]
Pursuant to the provisions of The Act, there is established and created a capital fund for such district, which shall be known as the "NEESSMID Capital Fund" (and is referred to in this chapter as the "capital fund"), for which capital fund the City may certify taxes (the "capital fund tax") each year, commencing with the levy of taxes for collection in the fiscal year beginning July 1, 2002, and continuing for 34 additional fiscal years, unless extended by amendment, to be levied against all of the property in the NEESSMID as defined in Section 3.64.030, in addition to all other taxes, for the purpose of accumulating monies for the financing or payment of a part or all of the cost of any improvements as defined in the Act. Furthermore, should the property owners plat any and all of the remaining unplatted property prior to or during the first three years after the enactment of this chapter, the property owners shall be granted the rights and privileges to the extent allowed under Iowa Code Section 441.72(2001). Accordingly, the term of the SSMID District shall be extended for a period of 38 years on such newly platted property. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained herein, the term of the authorized SSMID levy shall not exceed 38 years.
The purposes of the NEESSMID Capital Fund are:
A. 
Paying all capital expenses of the SSMID District for the roadway improvements described in Section 3.64.020;
B. 
Paying all of the maintenance expenses of "improvements" or "self-liquidating improvements" as defined in the Act and/or in this ordinance with respect to the SSMID District based upon rates set forth in Section 3.64.050 and terms set forth in this section; or
C. 
Paying the administrative expenses of the SSMID District, as defined and authorized in the Act.
All revenues collected in the NEESSMID Capital Fund shall be disbursed only for these purposes.
[Ord. 2001-257 § 6]
The capital fund tax levied in any one year as provided in Section 3.64.060, shall be at a rate of not to exceed $4.50 per $1,000 of taxable value of the property within the district as defined in Section 3.64.030 in addition to all other taxes. Based upon the undersigned's current Site Development Plan, such taxes would result with a SSMID increase tax base all as set forth in Exhibit "2" hereinafter attached and incorporated herein by this reference.[1]

Editor's Note: Exhibit 2 may be found on file in the office of the City Clerk.
[Ord. 2001-257 § 7]
Before any monies from the capital fund are disbursed, the City shall enter into an agreement with the property owners, or with an organization or association comprised of at least a majority of the property owners, in which the rights and obligations of the City and the property owners are defined, including a process for making payments from the capital fund to the property owners or their representative.
As a further condition to the disbursement of funds from the capital fund, the property owners shall submit to the Davenport City Council, no later than November 1st of each year, a budget showing in general terms, the proposed expenditures of such funds for the fiscal year beginning on the next July 1.

Approval by the City Council of Davenport, Iowa, shall be given within 30 days of receipt of the capital fund tax revenues by the City from the Scott County Treasurer's Office.
