RE: Amend Initial Resolution for Special Assessments
Paving, Sidewalk, Driveway and Utilities / Second Local Street Concrete Paving Program
Central City Area — Contract 14 -05
BACKGROUND
This resolution is to amend the initial resolution for allowing the City to assess abutting property owners
for improvements to be completed during the paving of the following street: South Campbell Road, from
Ohio Street to Witzel Avenue. The resolution is amended to include grading and graveling and extend the
limits of South Campbell Road from 200' west of Ohio Street to Witzel Avenue. Adding this work will
enable the City to complete the repair of South Campbell Road from Ohio Street to the entrance of the
new Public Works Field Operations facility. The work can be scheduled and completed in conjunction
with the Public Works Field Operations facility project to minimize impacts for access.
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.
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 2014 Capital Improvement Program in the Street,
Storm Sewer, Sanitary Sewer, Water Main, and Sidewalk sections.
RECOMMENDATIONS
I recommend approval of the amendment to the initial resolution.
Approved:
Mark A. Rohloff
