Christoffersen was asked to briefly explain the improvement. Christoffersen stated that this improvement includes sanitary sewer, watermain, streets and drainage to serve the McClung Third Addition. The sanitary sewer and watermain extend the length of the cuI de sac (indicated on a transparency the location of the storm drainage along a natural drainageway). Lynden was asked to explain the proposed financing. Lynden said the total cost of this project is $72,167.00; at the feasibility hearing it was estimated to cost $109,900. Lynden said there are 12 lots in this subdivision and the cost is proposed to be 100% assessed at $6,013.95/ lot. Again, this is proposed to be a 6-year payback at interest to accrue at 10.5%/annum. The first installment, principal and interest, to be payable with taxes payable in 1986, with the privilege of a 30 day prepayment, after adoption of the assessment roll. McNiesh was asked if there have been any written questions or objections. Her answer was no, Your Honor. . The hearing was opened to comments from the floor. Woodburn noted that Mr. McClung is present. (name not given) asked, on the street assessment, does the assessment include the final bituminous surfacing on the street. Christoffersen said that right now they have one finish wear course to put on; said, hopefully, we -1- can have this completed yet this fall. Christoffersen said we have con- struction problems we have to finish first, however; stated that as soon as they are corrected, if the weather is proper, we'll put the final wear on. It is included in the assessment. Woodburn noted that ordinarily the final wear coat is put on in the spring, as a matter of fact, on purpose, is it not. Christoffersen said that is correct. Woodburn said sometimes it seems to set a little better if it sits over the winter. After determining that there were no additional cOnmlents from the floor., the public hearing was closed at 8:10 p.m. -2- L .... . . . .
