Diane,
According to Iowa Code Section 384.38, when a city establishes a utility fee district, the city shall provide
at least 20 days notice as proscribed by Iowa Code Section 362.3. The governing body can also direct
that notice be made by mail, but is not required to. For this particular district, Eric Cowles has been in
contact with each of the property owners that will be affected and has informed them of the proposed
costs. Since each property owner was already made aware, we will not be sending mailed notices for this
particular district. However, in the future we can choose to do so.
I hope this clarifies your question.
Thanks,
Jessica
