I I. aBR.sN f,lILLS CITY COUNCIL - JUNE 26. 1995 I Councilmember Hicks questioned if residents were notified of the informational meetings regarding I the 1995 Pavement Improvement Project. Mr. Stonehouse indicated those in Hunters Park which abut the property were notified. He indicated at the meeting it was decided to assess the entire Association. Mr. Stonehouse indicated there has not been any additional informational meetings I since that decision. Mr. Fritsinger indicated there were discussions held at the informational meeting whether the entire I Association should be assessed or just the properties which abut Benton Way.

Assessments I then were based on the total length of street which abuts the entire development, this is multiplied by four, and divided by the number of homes within the project.
