Remonstrance, Petition and Waiver

Remonstrance

A remonstrance is a No vote by the property owner to formation of the LID.

Non-Remonstrance

A non-remonstrance is either a Yes vote or an agreement to not vote No to the formation of the LID.

What is a Petition and Waiver?

A petition and waiver is an agreement between the City and a property owner in which the property owner agrees to be included in a future LID should the City Council determine it necessary.  It is recorded on the title for the affected lot by the original property owner and runs with the title such that subsequent owners are also obligated to the formation of the LID should Council so direct.  It allows the original land owner to delay the associated improvement from the time of development to a future date.  The obligation is generally documented in the title report associated with each lot.
