Mr. Hoeft stated the linear <br />assessment is not effective for this development and the pro rata approach may <br />serve the residents more effectively.

Mr. Hoeft explained that if a resident requested a deferred <br />assessment, the Council could set a date for expiration. He stated the deferred <br />portion would continue to gain interest but would lessen the financial strain ofthe <br />present assessment. <br /> <br />Council Member Broussard Vickers inquired regarding the cost to connect to the <br />City sewer and water.

Mr. Peterson stated additional stubs would <br />need to be added in the future if the lot were to be subdivided. <br /> <br />Council Member Broussard Vickers asked if the residents had to hook up to City <br />water and sewer. Mr. Hoeft stated that all wells and septic sites become a pre- <br />6 <br />
