3 improvement that they should receive an acreage eharge, and the £ront footage, depending on the number of front feet you have, � wauld be the front footage charge in of itsel€. The_charg�s . for services are explanatory because there are dif€erent amvvnts £or different size services, and the difference between residential and commercial is justified beeause of different uses of the property, but as I said, the approach is tv finti out what the total aast is. The cost has to be financed and apportioned out as equitably as possi..ble based on �he beneiits the property has received for the improvement that's been put in. It's proposed the assessments be spread over 20 years so the first installment would be co2.Lected beginning with taxes next year and the £irst half of the installment would be due on May 31 and the second in October of 1980. The carrying charge would be at 8$ on the unpaid balance. The Council has adopted in the past, a policy that i€ people wish to prepay to save the interest charges they can pay in full within 30 days after the assessment roll is adopted ' and pay no interest, but you have also gone a bit £urther and said you will accept 50 percent of the to tal assessment, so if somebody has a$5,OOD assessment and doesn't want to.pay the full $5000, aT.though they have the right to do it, they could pay $2,500 and the other $2,500 would be spread over the 20' year period of time.
