He stated we spend about $438,000 <br /> on the mill and overlay project and the related costs adjusting manhole covers and stretch of <br /> storm sewer on Old Mill Road and water department adjustment to gate values. This $438,000 <br /> amount may change due to minor adjustments at year end. Mr. Larson stated that there was a <br /> balance $177,000 balance in this fund due to coding the storm water to the storm water fund and <br /> if this wasn't done there would be a significant lower balance in this fund. The $177,000 will be <br /> carried over into the 2015 budget to help defray some of the costs. He stated that there was <br /> about $90,500 that was specially assessed to homeowner and two-thirds of them had paid their <br /> assessment of$500. The remainder will be paid over the next couple of years.
