This resolution is the initial resolution for allowing the City to assess abutting property owners for
improvements to be completed during the reconstruction of the fo�lowing streets: Bismarck Avenue from
Sawyer Street to Guen�her Street, North Westlield Street trom Ro6in Avenue to Oshkosh Avenue, and

project. 7he assessable work will include concrete pavement, sidewalk repair, new sidewalk, driveway
aprons, sanitary sewer laterals (new and relay), storm sewer laterels (new and relay), water laterals (new

ANALYSIS
The resoWtion allows City staff to proceed with preparing assessments for the abutting properties. A
public hearing needs to be held and a fnal 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 associatetl with projects from benefiting
properties. Funding for the projects is included in the 2016 Capital Improvement Program in the Street,
Storm Sewer, Sanitary Sewer, Sidewalk and Water Main sections.
I recommend approval of the initial resolution.
