When would property owners in the annexation area receive their first tax statements from the City of Mesquite?
The tax statements issued in October 2007 will be the first tax bills newly annexed residents would receive from Mesquite. The taxes would become delinquent on January 31, 2008. Once newly annexed residents begin paying City of Mesquite taxes, when can they expect to have a sanitary sewer connection at their homes? Property taxes are not the funding mechanism for the construction of sanitary sewer lines. Water and sewer customers pay for the cost of sewer lines through separate charges for these services. Customers not connected do not pay for services they are not receiving. Developers are responsible for infrastructure construction in new residential subdivisions or commercial developments. The density of development generally triggers construction of sanitary sewer lines. Residents of an existing development who want sanitary sewer extended to their home, may make a request to City Council. Staff would then evaluate the cost and number of homes in the area the line would serve. What
