<br />MR. STEVE NORTH: Why don't you give me a call - my number <br />~s 484-3371. It's the City Hall number. <br /> <br />COUNCILMAN CURLEY: On that 75% that goes on property <br />taxes - you have to remember that this 75% is being picked up <br />by business, commercial and all types of people - not just you <br />people, not just the homeowners in Roseville. It's a very good <br />deal for you people to get this at 25% of the cost. <br /> <br />MR. HONCHELL: I think he's talking about the percent of <br />this project - not the percent of the increase in your recent <br />taxes - if I understood him correctly. 75% of the cost of this <br />project will be picked up by someone other than those living <br />in the area. Only a quarter of the cost would be paid by the <br />people in the area itself. ' <br /> <br />~1AN IN AUDIENCE: Does the State have the money from State <br />aids? I understand they're a little short. <br /> <br />MAYOR DEMOS: State aid funds come from gasoline taxes, <br />license plates - they have an account from the City of Roseville <br />and they can't take that. That's why we're spending it. <br /> <br />MAN IN AUDIENCE: They're looking for extra money where- <br />ever they can find it. <br /> <br />(, <br /> <br />MAYOR DEMOS: They can't take that. <br /> <br />MR. KEITH SCHOTTLER, 1046 West County Road B-2: I wanted <br />to ask a question - could it be done at this time to fill in <br />that ditch on the south side of B-2? Why is it essential that <br />we maintain that and on the north side they don't have one and <br />half of them are filled up anyhow. <br /> <br />MR. HONCHELL: we, as part of this project, are proposing <br />to attempt to do all the fill we can in those ditches. The <br />problem we have is that the County, typically, doesn't want <br />to have the entire ditch filled because 'they don't want the <br />water running down the street - that's why the ditches are <br />there in the first place - to keep the water off the roadway <br />surface. If the county will cooperate by putting some sort of <br />little roll or bituminous curb on the edge of the roadway, we <br />would be willing to fill the ditch and put that ,catch basin <br />out on the edge of the road. Unfortunately that hasn't been <br />the standard way the county does it. If this passes, we'll <br />be happy to go to the county and see if they'll do it that <br />way - see if they'll allow it to be done so that the drainage <br />facilities are out on the edge and then there won't be those <br />ditches. I can't promise you that because that isn't what <br />they usually allow. <br /> <br />MR. SCHOTTLER: Try hard, will you? <br /> <br />MAYOR DEMOS: You might try hard too - call your County <br />Commissioner. <br /> <br />21 <br />
