Resolution Orderin the Im rovement • B. Resolution Adotiting Final Assessment Roll C. Resolution Accepting Bid and Authorizing Execution of Contract John Anderson, P.E. with BDM Consulting Engineers, presented the staff report and provided a PowerPoint presentation. He noted a correction on page 5 of the presentation and stated two properties should be removed as they were assessed in 2003. Mayor Klinzing stated she would combine both public hearings and opened both public hearings. Joe & Kara Homan, 1028 Main Street, presented council with photographs of a cement retaining wall in front of their property, stating the wall is on city property. The roots of an oak tree has grown into the wall and is causing the cement to split and become pushed out, causing a dangerous setting. Mr. Anderson stated this is out of the scope of this rehabilitation project, but after some discussion, it was decided to take a look at the wall during the project and obtain bids for cement work. Peggy Kaproth, 1305 Main Street, asked questions regarding the criteria for doing a full depth reclamation and whose decision it was to make. She stated there is an unused driveway on her property that the city actually uses to access sewer lines and requested that this driveway not be elinunated. • Jim MacGibbon, PID #75-409-0740, asked when the last reclamation had been completed on Main Street and asked if there were any guarantee how long this one would last and when the next assessment would occur. Mr. Anderson stated the last reclamation was done in 1988. He stated it would be hard to place a guarantee timeframe of how long this reclamation would last, but said approximately 20-30 years depending on use of the road. Mr. MacGibbon stated one of his lots is considered unbuildable. Mayor Klinzing stated he should provide a hand written note to the council indicating his objection to the assessment. Mr. MacGibbon provided council with his objection. George Valasquez, 1912 Main Street, asked questions regarding when the last assessment occurred and if some properties would be excluded from assessments. He had concerns with the use of the road by heavy trucks and wondered if there should be a weight limit. He requested a stop sign be placed at County Road 30 and Main Street to control speed. He also had concerns with neighbors who are on fixed incomes and who may not be able to attend tonight's meeting to express their thoughts. Mr. Anderson stated engineers do recognize the heavy use of the road and will use a thicker pavement section to accommodate the extra weight and traffic. He noted that stop signs generally don't help with speed control. He outlined the process that took place to notify and inform residents of a potential assessment, stating the city follows laws that are set forth by • the state.
