The Council consented that the assessments for the downtown amenities
should stop on the east side of Lowell because none of the amenities
would be placed west of Lowell.
The Council also agreed that the assessment be as a per unit basis with
a one-half unit for nonabutting properties. The Council indicated this
was the fairest way to assess the properties.

by the Council because the project was initiated by Council. The
downtown committee has advised the Council on the desired amenities.

negative comments on the proposal. He further stated that the City will
be looking for the Elk River Utilities to work with the City on the

water to the western edge of the City. Orono Road was discussed and it

sewer and water by going out Main Street.
The City Administrator discussed the water study portion of the
feasibility report. He indicated that the area could not support this
amount of assessment without another financing mechanism. especially the
areas which are currently developed into one acre or larger lots. He
indicated if this were the case. the City would grow on a very slow.
phased or as needed process. and this could have some serious
ramifications as to how or when the City grows.

e

offices were deterring from residential atmosphere and further that the
lights may be a problem in the neighborhoods.
