<br />. <br /> <br />MAYOR WOODBURN: (Inaudible) deal with this. We've dealt <br />with this for so long and so openly and so publicly and this <br />hearing has been set for long enough that to wait until today and <br />hold this item up - there was adequate notice - I don't if it's <br />fair to hold it up some more because they didn't have time <br />(inaudible) . <br /> <br />MRS. McNIESH: Notices were mailed on August 6. <br /> <br />MAYOR WOODBURN: So they got there maybe the 10th, two weeks <br />(inaudible), beyond the fact that everybody knew it was cominq UP. <br />Many people knew it was corning up. Mr. Colestock, I think, was <br />here, I believe, when we set the assessment time. One of the <br />difficulties we have up here - we've lived with these figures for <br />so long that there was no surprise to us. Anything else from the <br />Council? Action or inaction? <br /> <br />COUNCILMAN McALLISTER: <br /> <br />(Inaudible) make a motion. <br /> <br />COUNCILMAN MULCAHY: Your Honor, I'm prepared to move the <br />adoption of a resolution which adopts and confirms the assessment <br />roll for Improvement No. ST-81-2, covering the Lexington/694 <br />storm drainage, and to adopt Resolution No. 82-46. <br /> <br />COUNCILMAN McALLISTER: I would like to add some reasons for <br />the motion. A lack of benefit to the properties has not been <br />offered and no alternative figures have been given to us. I <br />think we have to proceed this way. <br /> <br />MAYOR WOODBURN: I think that will be in the minutes. We <br />have looked at this in various ways and the figure is not out of <br />the blue. It has been looked into. <br /> <br />COUNCI~VU~ MULCAHY: I'd also like to say, particularly <br />since I'm the newest member of the Council here, I haven't had <br />the benefit of the earlier long discussions (inaudible) deciding <br />to go ahead. I, for one, very much appreciate the input that <br />we received tonight. I am a little disappointed, though, that <br />with the practical matter - adequate notice to the affected per- <br />sons and landowners, and in most cases a situation where we're <br />dealing with relatively sophisticated business people, people who <br />know I value their business as citizens of the village - it really <br />would have been a bigger help to us if you could have come in <br />strength a little sooner. Gene was here earlier and made some <br />of these comments at one meeting that I'm familiar with. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />My regret in voting for this assessment, and I will, and <br />perhaps the following assessment, is that the citizens - particu- <br />larly the business community - let us know too late - or not <br />earlier enough anyway - about their feelings. I know that every <br />person sitting up here, Councilman Hicks included, would like to <br />hear from all of you. We're hearing mostly from the business <br />community tonight. You're valued members of the community and <br />we don't want to have a disagreement with you, least of all a <br />lawsuit. In my view, it would really help us a lot more if you <br />would get a lot more involved, serve on our committees, learn <br /> <br />23 <br />
