RE. Approve Initial Resolution for Special Assessments for Storm Sewer Laterals
Relating to Contract No.20-15/Various Locations
BACKGROUND
This resolution is the initial resolution for allowing the City to assess property owners for
improvements to be completed during the construction of mini storm sewers and storm laterals.
The assessable work will include the installation of storm sewer laterals and surface drains.
This year, due to a favorable bid result in the earlier Storm Sewer Laterals program, we are
preparing a second program to reduce the backlog of properties requesting to join this program.
The following properties have requested to be included in this year's second program:
1056 West 9th Avenue 1625 Spruce Street 904 Nicolet Avenue
1222 West 11th Avenue 1812 Hollister Avenue 915 Jefferson Street
1230 Camden Lane 1605 Crestview Drive 2115 White Swan Drive
675 Boyd Street 1828 McCurdy Street 1109 Hazel Street
2490 Clover Street 1025 South Sawyer Street 1008 South Sawyer Street
1310 Western Street 1355 Morgan Avenue 1321 Punhoqua Street
The following properties are included in this year's second program due to limited additional
work required to provide a storm sewer lateral connection:
1221 West 11th Avenue 1229 West 11th Avenue 1812 McCurdy Street
1816 McCurdy Street 1822 McCurdy Street 1000 South Sawyer Street
1002 South Sawyer Street

ANALYSIS
The resolution allows City staff to proceed with preparing assessments for the abutting
properties. A public hearing needs to be held and a final resolution needs to be approved by the
Council prior the assessments being levied on the properties. Although Council has created a
committee to review potential changes to the City's special assessment policy, we still need to
follow these special assessment procedures until such time as the policy is amended.
FISCAL IMPACT
Assessments allow the City to recover a portion of the costs associated with projects from
benefiting properties. Funding for the projects is included in the 2020 Capital Improvement
Program in the Storm Sewer section.
RECOMMENDATIONS
I recommend approval of the initial resolution.
