<br />lO <br /> <br />page 4, paragraph 1, it states that 77% of the property owners <br />who have assessable property are for the improvement, and I believe <br />you have answered this. How did the 77% - how was it arrived at? <br /> <br />MR. HONCHELL: That was taken by the number of prople that <br />petitioned for the roadway improvement. This is a combined <br />improvement, if you will. That's 77% of the people along Iona <br />where the roadway portion of this project is proposed. <br /> <br />MR. FALK: You're talking to the east. <br /> <br />MR. HONCHELL: East of Dale between Mackubin and Dale, signed <br />the petition in favor of the pa~g project and acknowledging there <br />would be the sttrm sewer. Also on page 4 (inaudible) the total <br />was approximately 30% directly below the line you quoted so those <br />people along Iona east of Dale that signed constituted approximately <br />30% of the entire storm drainage assessable area. <br /> <br />MR. FALK: Can I ask - maybe this can't be revealed, but how <br />many did sign the petition?I'm trying to figure out how you get <br />77% and I can't come up with it. <br /> <br />MR. HONCHELL: I'm rounding and approximating these numbers. <br /> <br />MAYOR DEMOS: There are l7 lots that signed for the petition. <br />17 out of 22 on Iona would make 77%. <br /> <br />MR. FALK: Well, I guess the last thing I would like to say, <br />and Mr. Honchell did point this out and I'm glad that he did, that <br />30% of the property owners that are going to be assessed are for it <br />and I would hope that the City Council members would have great <br />concern that the project 78-30 is being pushed down 70% of the <br />property owners throats who are not for the improvement. I would <br />hope this is not the way our government should work. <br /> <br />MR. AL BERG, 511 Iona Lane: I had two questions. You said <br />the width of the street up there by Mackubin is 44 feet wide, is <br />that correct? <br /> <br />MR. HONCHELL: The existing or proposed? <br /> <br />MR. BERG: The existing. <br /> <br />MR. HONCHELL: The existing is mid-thirties to 20 feet. It <br />kind of weaves around so far as width and doesn't have a standard <br />width. <br /> <br />MR. BERG: What is the widest of Mackubin? <br /> <br />MR. HONCHELL: 32 feet. <br /> <br />MR. BERG: So the proposed 36 or 44 feet would be wider than <br />that east of there. If the roadway were narrowed down from the <br /> <br />existing roadway, what would be done as far as filling in on the <br />
