MEMORANDUM
TO: Honorable Mayor and Members of the Common Council
FROM: Justin Gierach, Engineering Division Manager / City Engineer
DATE: January 7, 2021
RE: Approve Initial Resolution for Special Assessments for Concrete Pavement,
Asphalt Pavement, Sidewalk (New and Rehabilitation), and Driveway Aprons
Relating to Contract No. 21-01
• Omro Road (250' west of North Westhaven Drive to Brooks Lane)
• North Westhaven Drive (Omro Road to 300' south of Omro Road)
BACKGROUND
This resolution is the initial resolution for allowing the City to assess abutting property owners
for improvements to be completed during the reconstruction of Omro Road from 250' west of
North Westhaven Drive to Brooks Lane. The assessable work will include concrete pavement,
asphalt pavement, sidewalk (new and rehabilitation), and driveway aprons.
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
contemplated 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 project is included in the 2021 Capital Improvement
Program in the Street and Sidewalk sections.
RECOMMENDATIONS
I recommend approval of the initial resolution.
