SUBJECT: Resolution 2025-02, 2023 Morrow Gravity Sanitary Sewer Extension Assessment Fee
DATE: June 12, 2025
BACKGROUND:
This sewer project was identified as a designated sewer improvement, and the assessment area
was created by Ordinance 1217, adopted November 7, 2023. The area basin contains a total of
228.24. At this time, the 228.24 acres remain undeveloped.
Section 17-301 of the Code of Ordinances allows for costs associated with the construction of

be recouped through a per -acre assessment fee set by Resolution of the OPWA.
TIMELINE AND COSTS:
• In March 2023, Thiessen North Investment Group, LLC, performed a study of the basin and
design of the gravity sanitary sewer line to accommodate the future estimated sanitary
sewer flow within the basin. The engineering design cost to the private sector was $218,305
and is not included in the proposed per -acre fee.
• The utility easement was donated to the City by the property owners.
• In March 2024, OPWA approved a construction contract with GC Enterprises of Claremore,
Oklahoma, for construction of the sewer improvements. The project was completed and
accepted by the OPWA in June 2025, for a total contract amount of $1,547,872.00.
PROPOSED ASSESSMENT FEE:
The assessment fee includes a payback calculation for properties within the 2023 Morrow Gravity
Sanitary Sewer Extension area. Upon approval to tie into the new system, payment of this
assessment will be mandatory and due upon the approval of a final plan or connection to the
sanitary sewer system.
Taking the total number of acres included in the Assessment Area (228.24) and the total project
cost ($1,547,872.00), the proposed mandatory assessment fee has been calculated at $6,781.77
per acre.
