MR. TOM LYNCH, representing Knights of Columbus, 2555 North Snelling: Alternate 3 sounds like the one. We weren't aware of that one, but I think it would be very fair because Alternate 1 would cost us about $7,500, so it's about a stand- off if we put it in for $7,500 or the city puts it in, and as far as the membership, I'm sure we'd like to see Alternate 3 accepted. The other thing here. you mentioned that the Polar Food Locker would not be assessed. This would be equally spread then, because Polar Food did not petition and we did not want to agitate our neighbor by having an assess- ment on them. COUNCILMAN GRAUEL: The assessment - you have the assessment. That's $7,427 to the Knights of Columbus. MAYOR DEMOS: But they're free of maintenance. MR. LYNCH: The village is equipped to handle the maintenance. COUNCILMAN GRAUEL: The only thing I question is - I agree that the city should pick up some of the cost, but what you're saying is that out of $20,000 the city is to pick up $7,994 on raw land, with the exception of some tennis courts. I'm talking about hard surface area, and how much tributary area are we putting to that as far as hard surface as com- pared to the existing buildings with their parking lots and roofs and so forth. MR. HONCHELL: We took the building plans of each of the two private ownerships and we calculated the asphalt (inaudible) We applied impervious factors to each, based on what kind of material it is. As I said before, the asphalt has .9 (in- audible) while when you get to the grass it's less than this, and in one case we had 1.4 acres and the other just over I acre (inaudible). When we got to the park property we did the same thing. We took an aerial photograph, determined how much was hard-surfaced - like a tennis court and wading pool, and how much grassy area, and we applied the percentages to that and that's how we made our calculations based on what we calculated the amount of water reaching the facility was and proportioned it to each owner.
