2 and from the off-ramp of 35W north to a location south of County Road C-2 is the area included that drains toward Cleveland where the water is picked up ultimately in these lines shown in blue which were part of the construction. As we said, a companion project is 76-8. That starts from south of County Road C-2, goes up to beyond (inaudible) which includes a portion of Arden Hills to roughly Evelyn and a portion of Prior Circle on the east. This improvement consisted of the lines themselves shown in blue on Cleveland, the outlet pipe to the freeway, some pick-up of water on Brenner along County Road D, and in each case, the necessary ponds to make this whole design function. MR. PETER S. POPOVICH: The total published cost of the combined improvement - which was combined after the feasibility hearing - is $345,163.83. According to the assessment formula that's now in effect, it's $295 per residential lot, $590 for commercial, $995 per acre for residential, and $1,990 for commercial acreage. A total of $176,664 would be collected by assessments. The balance of $168,499 - you would receive $40,729 from the county and $13,461 from Arden Hills, leaving a balance of $114,308 to be spread on general taxes over the life of the assessment. This will be a 20-year assessment with an 8% carrying charge, and with the normal rights of prepayment or deferment according to Council policy. MAYOR DEMOS: Have any ietters been received? MR. ANDRE: We have a letter from Mr. Duford, 3062 Cleveland Avenue and he has no objection to this improvement, but to Improvement P-76-9. I might mention at this time the deferred specral assessment policy for senior citizens which the Council adopted in 1976, and this would apply to this and the rest of the projects and it provides that where one or more owners who are 65 or older they may apply for deferred assessments if it would create a hardship, and a hardship is defined as created if the annual assessment exceeds a certain percentage of the person's annual income. If anyone is interested in seeking the deferred assessment they should contact the city Finance Director and go over the specific requirements and what would be involved. The assessment would be deferred as long as the owner desired or he lived on the property. MAYOR DEMOS: The income referred to is in excess or over and above Social Security. MR. ANDRE: Or any type of disability payments or railroad retirement, whatever.
