Regular City Council Meeting Monday, October 08, 2007 Page 12 Ms. Bloom had detailed their research and assessment history for this property in the staff report. Discussion ensued regarding the assessment history, previous and current assess- ment policies; and staff's application of current policy on a consistent basis. Councilmember Ihlan noted that the City Council had no evidence before them at this time, unless ordered during a court proceeding, that the property value was reduced, or allowing for resolution in some other way. Ms. Bloom noted, in concurrence with City Attonley Anderson, that an appraisal would not be possible before the certification deadline, and could delay certifica- tion for another year, without Council action at tonight's meeting, in accordance with the assessment schedule. Further discussion included a review of the Church's site plan, parking areas, and main entrances. Mayor Klausing suggested that the City Council follow staff. P-OS-06, S Owasso Boulevard Reconstruction Project Staff recommended an adjustment to the previous written objection from Kris Kuck, 312 S Owasso Blvd., and elimination of the proposed assessment following review after oral and written objection of Harstad Homes, for the storm pond at 3051 S Owasso Blvd.; and discussion was held regarding staff's rationale for ad- justing the assessment. Staff reviewed the oral and written objective of Stephanie and Robert Kelsey, 455 S Owasso Blvd.; and their rationale for not recommending an adjustment of the assessment, providing a detailed review of the construction process, the City's of- fered reimbursement and previously resolved, in accordance with State Statute 429 for assessments and treating similar properties equally. Ms. Bloom noted a written objection received from Kathleen & David Rothen- berger, 445 Turnstone Court, and included in tonight's packet as part of the re- cord; and rationale for not recommending an adjustment to the assessment.
