AGENDA FOR CONTINUED PUBLIC IMPROVEMENT HEARING TERRACE DRIVE, 91 -04 February 25, 1991 A. Mayor calls the meeting to order and announces the purpose of the hearing and format for the meeting. "This is a continued public improvement hearing to consider whether public improvements should be constructed. The decision will be whether the City Council wishes to proceed with the public improvement project. The decision will not be made at this time as to what the assessment rates will be or how the project costs will be allocated. That will be done at a separate assessment hearing when the project is completed." "This project was initiated as a result of a petition received by affected property owners. Since this project was petitioned by more than 35% of the affected property owners, a 3/5 vote of the city council will be necessary.
