<br />May 14,2008 <br /> <br />ASSESSMENT POLICY QUESTIONS <br /> <br />1. I've heard the water main cost is an $6427.00, so why the differences between <br />Dl, D2 and D3 if you separated the water main costs out? Shouldn't they all <br />be the same, and then people with water main would add the additional <br />$6427.00 or whatever that number is? If you look on the map the only <br />difference between a D2 and D3 is water main services and if you separate it <br />out as stated above then I should be a D2 in the front. What do these numbers <br />include? $43.34 for a D3 and $29.30 for a Dl. <br /> <br />2. Corner lots - example 7426 Mill Road: 100 ft on Prairie (Dl=$29.30) 150 ft <br />on Mill Road (D3=$43.34) 100 ft x 29.30 = $2930.00 + 20% of 150 ft = 30 ft <br />x $43.34 = $1257.00 total = $2930.00 + $1257.00 = $4187.00. Is this correct? <br />(Based on Assessment Policy - Sum of assessment cannot exceed 130 feet) <br /> <br />3. Is Assessment Policy outdated? It was last reviewed in 1989. Should it be <br />reviewed to incorporate the City's Comprehensive Plan as other cities this size <br />have done? If the sidewalks and trails are part of the Comprehensive Plan for <br />the City then shouldn't the City pay 100% as the reason for them is to benefit <br />the community as whole. Correct? Aren't there funds set aside for items in the <br />Comprehensive Plan? <br />
