RE: Approval of Initial Resolution for Special Assessments
Water Main Relay and Installation — Contract 16 -09
BACKGROUND
This resolution is the initial resolution for allowing the City to assess abutting property owners for
improvements to be completed during the construction work on the following streets: West 51h Avenue,
from South Eagle Street to Knapp Street. The work may continue up to 100' on any of the intersecting
streets. The assessable work will include concrete pavement, asphalt pavement, curb repair, sanitary
sewer laterals (new and relay), water laterals (new and relay), and sidewalk repair.
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 2016 Capital Improvement Program in the Water,
Wastewater, and Street sections.
RECOMMENDATIONS
I recommend approval of the initial resolution.
Approved:
