Frueh The present Ordinance reads as follo��s: "The city estimates that hot-�r►ix blacktop should last 12 years and concrete 25 years� If any surface repairs are necessary during the life expectancy of 12 ar 25 years for hot-mix blacktop or concrete respectively, they shall be made at city ger�eral E�xpense and not by Special Assessment against abutting property owners. `' Any resur�acing done after said life expectanc_y in order to prolong tFie life of the street shall be paid for by Special Assessments to the abtttting praperty owners. °' The problems associated ►•rith this Ordinance is that it uses a raiher archaic descri;piion far hot-r�ix blackiop. For examp7e, does hot-mix 6lacktop include the �isphaltic Concrete Pavement design defined in our SuSdivision Ordinance as an equally acceptabte pavement as Portland Cement Concrete Pavement. I do not believe it does and the term is usu�lly applied to Asphaltic Concrete resurfacing on an existing, paved street. The second problem in the existing Ordinance is that it does not speak to the problem of sealcoating and ho;�� long a sealcoat should 7as�. 41ith that thought in mind, I proposed the Orcfinance t� read as fol7o�vs: "The city estimates that streets improved by sealcoats should not need extensive improvements for 3 years, streets improved by hot-mixed asphaltic resurfacing should not need extensive improvement for 12 years; and streets improved by Portland Cement Concrete Pavement or Asphaltic Concrete Pavenent ��ith curb and gutters should not need extensive imvrovements for 25 years. If any suraface repairs are necessary during the life expectancy, of 3, 12, or 25 years for sealcoats, asphaltic resurfacing, or pavenent, they shall t�e made at city general c��•, -�nc�t� 0.+�1 nn�F i�..

In order to make the provision more equitable should an im- prove�nent�be necessary �•�ithin the life expectancy period and in order to rere clearly define terms, I would recemmend that when the Or�dinance is ready for its third reading at the next Council Meeting, an amend- r�en� be made arf�ich wou7d change the final sentence and add a sentence. Starting with the final sentence of the proposed Ordinance, I would reco;�:mend ihat i t be amended as fol l otias : "If any surface repairs are necessary during the life expectancy of the sireet improvement, the Special Assess- ment for the new street improvement shall be reduced by �he proportional amount of the original assessment of the sea7coat, asphaltic resurfacing, or pavement as it would be depreciated on a straight line basis an the life expec- tancy af�the original improvement, l�lhenever the city improves the sireet by constructing a new Portland Cement Concrete Paver�ent, a ne��r Asphaltic Concrete Pavement with Portland Cement curb and gutiers,or resurfacing an existing base of pavement �•rhich has been deemed adequate by the city�- with Aspha1tic Concrete �rith Portland Cement curb and gutters, such actir�i�cy shaii be defined as Pavement and shail haue a life expectancy of 25 years," I believe that the above reference amendment would provide a more equitable basis for future street improvements. cs � __ _ __ �� .��;. �„ __-_ _,- _., _�-- . _._ . . _ ._ __ •- . - �. , , ,. .. , ;.,� � ��,' _, : I ,� � � � cd O � ri �+ t�0 � � ¢i cd � � � � � H cd r-I r-i �+ Pa cd v � � 'U Q� rl N bA ,Qj N ^�� -' f� N � '�a � +� Cd �O LO U] G7 -N U� ,s" ;v� � v � •� `� z3 � cn rn � U ��~ � N N � � � � � � � • � � P+ � �.. ��} � -r, .r�. , 4 ca N N o _t .. v - �_ i_f > U bD � `d � �r �� rj(�� p� � � .. � .. +� cd •rl d � �; 2f O N O � N •rl cd E-� •rl H •rl U rd N �+ � �' �+ �i •• Fy •• �i Cii O �' .
