City of Centerville <br />Council Meeting Minutes <br />November 28, 2012 <br />awarded for construction. Administrator Larson explained that residents would have a <br />period to pay off special assessments without incurring interest, the assessments would be <br />placed on their property for a period of 10 years and at an interest rate of 4% and that this <br />is similar to the procedure that was executed for the 2009 street improvement project. <br />Engineer Statz stated that a typical assessment would range from $2,000-$2,600 with an <br />annual payment of $250-$300. Engineer Statz also reminded Council and residents that <br />both of the proposed projects were a part of the 2009 Street Improvement Project but <br />pulled due to costs and resident input. <br /> <br />Council Member Fehrenbacher stated that if the mill and overlay project was completed, <br />it would allow the aforementioned streets to be included in the thin mill & overlay <br />maintenance program going forward and with those costs covered by City funding and as <br />maintenance rather than special assessments. <br /> <br />The hearing was then opened for public comment, the following persons expressed their <br />views on the project. <br /> <br />Mr. Cory Padrnos, 1874 Center Street, stated that he felt that Council was not being <br />forthcoming with hidden costs such as hookup charges, cost of contractor charges to <br />install services from the curbstop to the home, the assessed value of the project and that <br />he has a well and desires to keep it and not connect to municipal water. Engineer Statz <br />stated that he would address Mr. Padrnos questions when discussions took place for the <br />Center Street, Ivy Court and Sumac Court portion of the project. <br /> <br />Mr. Duane Chase, 1823 Hayfield Road, stated that the he has experienced standing water <br />in front of his home throughout the year and anticipates that this project will alleviate this <br />issue. Mr. Chase was unsure as to whether his home was connected to municipal water <br />services. <br /> <br />Engineer Statz stated that the contractors would evaluate storm sewer issues and <br />determine whether additional drainage venues would be needed; however if existing <br />storm sewers needed repair that would also be completed. Engineer Statz stated that the <br />mill and overlay would re-crown the road which would assist in the drainage of water to <br />the storm sewers. Engineer Statz stated that Mr. Chase was connected to municipal <br />water. <br /> <br />No one else was present who wished to speak with regard to the improvement. <br /> <br />Motion was made by Council Member Fehrenbacher, seconded by Council Member <br />Love to close the public hearing for the aforementioned roadways at 6:56 p.m. All in <br />favor. Motion carried unanimously. <br /> <br />The Mayor opened the public hearing for the 2013 Street Improvement Project, Center <br />Street, Sumac Court and Ivy Court at 7:15 p.m. <br /> <br />Page 2 of 12 <br /> <br />
