<br />6 <br /> <br />$34,726. The City of Roseville is assumed to have under this <br />improvement a lot of the same frontage as Mr. Widerski <br />(inaudible) we had to have some formula, so we assumed we would <br />assess ourselves the same size lot he was proposing and that's <br />$3,079. Since there is no utilization for sanitary sewer - <br />among other things our property, as many of the people in the <br />area know, falls off rapidly and is kind of a glorified swamp - <br />or part of it - it's too low to use any sanitary sewer and has <br />no assessment for sanitary sewer. We did assess $2,221 for <br />water in the event they did wish to put up a drinking fountain <br />or fight fires or anything else that would happen in the park, <br />for a total of $5,300. <br /> <br />I would be the first to agree with Mr. Widerski that this <br />is an extremely high cost. One of the reasons is that you have a <br />subdivision. It's only one man with two lots which says he has <br />to pay 100% of the cost. On the other side you have vacant <br />property and then we're charging the city which is tax exempt, <br />full cost, so that you have a very high expense, and cul-de-sacs <br />are very expensive to build. (inaudible) it's thousands and <br />thousands per owner, but the owners do not want to have any <br />traffic in front of their homes. <br /> <br />MAYOR DEMOS; It would practically run through his house. <br /> <br />MR. WIDERSKI: That will be torn down. <br /> <br />MR. HONCHELL: I'm just saying this is my understanding <br />that the owners of the property don't want too much traffic. <br /> <br />MR. WIDERSKI: The owners don't want a road for the reason <br />that they come through with the snomobiles, with the bicycles, <br />with these dune buggies, and the kids come over to my property <br />and they think it's a vacated street. Well my son's boy <br />(inaudible) <br /> <br />. Reporter changing tapes . . . . . <br /> <br />MR. WIDERSKI: I'm keeping the one piece, but I would like <br />to make sure I could build regardless. If my line comes there I <br />sure (inaudible) Now, if you're talking of running the sewer <br />,and water there, that I can't argue against, but to me, I got to <br />hook up right smack there. <br /> <br />MR. CURLEY: By the cul-de-sac? <br /> <br />MR. WIDERSKI: That's right. If I haven't got it there, just <br />go down a little ways along the street there - the curb or <br />gutter where I had them coming into the property line - I had <br />five of them come in there. Why couldn't I hook up to one of <br />them? <br /> <br />MR. HONCHELL: Those are owned by Ramsey County now. <br />
