RE: FRESNO STREET IMPROVEMENTS
Dear Council Members:
e
As you are aware, the Heritage Landing Improvement project also included sanitary sewer,
water, storm drainage, and new street construction on Fresno Street. It was the City's intention
to assess the abutting property owners for the storm drainage and street improvements. At the
public hearing, it was proposed to assess storm drainage at $8.00 per front foot and street at
$22.00 per front foot. It was also indicated at the public hearing that no assessment would be
levied for sanitary sewer or water main improvements. If a homeowner chooses to hook up to
the sanitary sewer and/or watermain, those assessments would be levied at that time. Otherwise,
no utility assessments would be levied until such time as the entire subdivision received sewer
and water improvements.
In order to initiate the assessment process for the street and storm drainage portion of the
improvements, the City Council needs to consider a resolution establishing the amount to be
assessed and authorizing the preparation of the assessment roll. We have prepared the attached
draft resolution for the Council's consideration. It would be staff's recommendation that this
resolution be adopted and that the assessment hearing for this project be set for Monday,
September 27, 1993.
If you have any questions regarding this, please call.
Sincerely,
MAIER STEWART & ASSOCIATES, INC.
