ARDEN HILLS REGULAR CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES MARCH 31, 2003 7 . Marjorie Harold, 3251 Fernwood, stated as President of the Josephine Hills Association, she and the Association agreed with what Ms. Swanson had said in the prepared statement she submitted earlier. Girish Bhatt, 1249 Karth Lake Drive, asked when the assessment role would be adopted. Mr. Brown replied when the project had been approved. Robert Woodburn, 1220 Inl!:erson Court, asked what the City's definition of "frontage" was. Mr. Miller stated the definition was in the City Ordinance and he did not have the Ordinance with him this evening. . Mr. Woodburn stated he believed the dictionary definition of "frontage" was the property facing the street. Mr. Parrish replied the definition of frontage was relative to the size of the lot. He noted there were a number of exceptions that had been noted at the beginning ofthis meeting. Mr. Woodburn requested the City clarify the definition of frontage. Lynn Diaz, 1143 Inl!:erson Road, stated her frontage calculation was correct, but she inquired about State Aid Funds. She noted Ingerson Road used to be a County Road and it was a collector street, which had traffic levels beyond the normal residential traffic. She noted State Aid was given for those streets. She stated the intention of the State Aid Funds was for the maintenance of those roads. She noted the City was charging the residents along Ingerson twice because they had already put tax money into the State Aid Fund and now are being assessed. She requested the assessment be based upon the amount after the State Aid Fund was deducted. . Mr. Parrish replied the City's practice had been to apply the MSA fund to the City's portion and not the residents' portion.
