I I. I I I I I I I I- I I I I I I I .- I ARDEN HITLS CITY COUNCIL - JUNE 26. 1995 4 , Mr, Schreiber inquired ifhe would be assessed twice. Mayor Probst indicated the potential would be there. Councilmember Malone noted for clarification, the Assessment Policy does recognize previously paid assessments. He noted there is a formula used regarding a property that is surrounded by two streets. The example Councilmember Malone gave was if the property had 100 feet on each street (200 actual front footage), the property would be assessed for only 100 feet, in other words it would be the sum of the front footage divided by two. The City does recognize special circumstances regarding properties. Councilmember Malone noted in similar cases such as properties on County Road F, some properties had been assessed previously for earlier improvements and those assessments were deducted from the overall assessment for the new project. He also noted the property addressed earlier, 1575 Edgewater will be removed from the assessment roll for similar reasons. Ms. Melve wmi..m~, 3355 Lake Johanna Boulevard, indicated, after addressing the Council, that she would prepare her questions in writing. Mr. Bob Hopkins, 1183 Benton Way, inquired if the entire Hunters Park Homeowners Association will be assessed. Mayor Probst indicated that would be correct. Mr. Stonehouse indicated based on the policy of previously assessed areas, the entire length of street benefitting the Hunters Park Association was taken, then divided among each unit, including the common area. Mr, Hopkins inquired if Hunters Court and Walden Place were included. Mr. Stonehouse indicated the two public street cul-de-sacs were left out of the calculation. Mr. Stonehouse in response to Mr. Hopkins question, indicated the properties abutting Benton Way, on Hunters Court would be assessed. Mr. Hopkins inquired if there is a list of assessments available. Mr. Stonehouse indicated there is a list available at City Hall. Mayor Probst explained that Benton Way is an overlay project. Mr. Stonehouse indicated that was correct, only Benton Way is currently proposed for improvements. He noted if in the future Hunters Court and Walden are improved, the properties abutting those streets will be assessed. Mr. Steve Olson, 1961 Jerrold Avenue, lives on a dead end street and inquired as to how far down the street the improvements will be. He noted the road is not very old in front of his home. Mr. Stonehouse indicated the improvements would extend all the way to the cul-de-sac.
