MEMORANDUM
TO: Todd Gerhardt, City Manager
FROM: Paul Oehme, City Engineer/Dir. of Public Works
DATE: May 18, 2004
SUB J:
Special Assessment Hearing for 2004 MSA Street Improvements
Project No. 04-02
REQUESTED ACTION
Staff requests the City Council consider a resolution adopting 2004 MSA Street
Assessment Roll.
POLICY DECISION/ACTION TO BE CONSIDERED
Prior to the completion of the public hearing, any property owner wishing to
object to their assessment must file a signed written objection or they waive their
right to appeal. The City Council is required to approve a resolution adopting the
assessment roll, either as submitted or as revised.
FACTS
At the September 22, 2003 Council meeting, the Council adopted a
resolution approving the feasibility study and authorizing preparation of
plans and specifications for the project.
Notice for the Assessment Hearing on May 24, 2004 has been mailed to
each of the parcels identified for assessment. The notice declares the
exact amount of the assessment as well as details on the property owner's
rights to object to the amount to the City Council.
The completion date for the assessment process is July 26, 2004. Property
owners may choose to pay off the assessment amount in full prior to the
July 26, 2004 date without interest. The County Auditor will certify the
assessments in November, 2004. The assessments will be payable in
2005.
The proposed assessments total is $327,321.07. Discussion of the
financing for the project will be presented at the public hearing. The
Financing Summary was prepared as information regarding the project to

be assessed. The detailed assessment roll is available in the Engineering
Department.
ISSUES
Staff will provide a brief explanation of the work along with the proposed
assessment amount. Any issues that the City Council wishes to discuss regarding
the project financing is appropriate during the public hearing portion of the
project. Public testimony should be received for the project. The property owners
should be reminded that they must file a written objection with the City Clerk
either prior to or during the actual project hearings. Objections after the public
hearing are invalid, so consistent reminders should be given.
The assessment objection is a request by the property owners for the Council to
review the assessment amount. Staff may have an immediate response to
individual comments, or in some circumstances, the objection should be received
and referred to staff for investigation. The remaining assessment roll should be
adopted. If the City Council feels the objections cannot be addressed
immediately, a report will be presented to Council on all objections on that
particular project at the next City Council meeting. Council must adopt the
remaining assessment roll at that time in order for the process to stay on schedule.
If there are no objections filed, or if Council feels confident staff's investigation
will not result in any changes being made to the assessment roll, a motion by the
City Council adopting the assessment roll as prepared is needed for the project.
ASSESSMENT OBJECTIONS
Objections may be filed up to and at the public hearing. At the time of this
submittal, no written objections have been filed. If any written objections are
received in the interim prior to the Council meeting, they will be provided to the
Council at the public hearing. Staff comments and recommendations will also be
provided at the public hearing. The City Council may choose to accept the staff
recommendation and either revise the assessment roll or adopt the roll if no action
is recommended. If additional objections are filed either prior to or at the hearing,
they should be received and if necessary referred to staff for investigation and
resolution.
