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 project is included in the 2021 Capital Improvement
Program in the Water Main section.
RECOMMENDATIONS
I recommend approval of the initial resolution.
Approved:
Mark A. Rohloff
City Manager
