Re: Assessments for New Sidewalk, Contract 10 -28
To Property Owners on:
➢ NORTH WASHBURN STREET, from Witzel Avenue to Abraham Lane
A public hearing is scheduled for September 28, 2010, at 6:00 p.m. in the Common Council
Chamber of the Oshkosh City Hall to consider sidewalk improvements to your street, and the
levy of special assessments that partially cover the cost of the improvements. These
improvements were installed with the Wisconsin Department of Transportation (WisDOT)
reconstruction of N. Washburn Street. Assessments can be paid by any one of the plans as
outlined on the enclosed Payment Plan for Special Assessments. Based upon the City of
Oshkosh assessment policy, the assessable portions of the project have been identified and are
outlined on the attached assessment worksheet(s). The quantities and costs are estimates and
will be adjusted to actual quantity installed and the final bill from WisDOT. Final costs will not
increase above the estimates without a public hearing. The estimated costs shown are reduced by
approximately 50% due to WisDOT funding a portion of the work. Additionally, sidewalks
through driveways will not be charged to the property owners due to WisDOT funding that
construction. Questions in regard to payment of Special Assessments can be answered by calling
the City Clerk's office at 236 -5011.
All work within this contract is complete. It is recommended that no salt or harsh chemicals be
put on new sidewalk for one (1) year. All disturbed areas were topsoiled, seeded, and mulched
(the property owner is responsible to water the newly vegetated areas).
If you have any questions on the proposed assessments or the project construction you can
contact the Public Works Engineering Division at (920) 236 -5065.
Sincerely,
Steven M. Gohde, P.E..
