RE: Approval of Initial Resolution for Special Assessments for Concrete Pavement,
Asphalt Pavement, Sidewalk (New and Rehabilitation), Driveway Aprons,
Sanitary Sewer Main and Laterals (New and Relay), Water Main and Laterals
(New and Relay) and Storm Sewer Mains and Laterals (New and Relay)

• Plymouth Street (West Murdock Avenue to Roosevelt Avenue)
BACKGROUND
This resolution is the initial resolution for allowing the City to assess abutting property owners
for improvements to be completed during the water main and lateral relay on the following
streets: Sheridan Street from West Murdock Avenue to Roosevelt Avenue, Mitchell Street from
West Murdock Avenue to north of West Linwood Avenue, Crane Street from West Murdock
Avenue to Roosevelt Avenue, and Plymouth Street from West Murdock Avenue to Roosevelt
Avenue. The assessable work will include concrete pavement, asphalt pavement, sidewalk
(new and rehabilitation), driveway aprons, sanitary sewer mains and laterals (new and relay),
storm sewer mains and laterals (new and relay), and water mains and laterals (new and relay).
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. Should the Council choose to
amend the City's Special Assessment policy, the changes approved by Council would be
reflected in the final resolution.
