Honorable Mayor and City Council February 25, 1997 Page Two At this time, the City has received one written assessment appeal from Gwen Smith, 18290 Fresno Street, a copy of which is attached. Also, the Council will remember the individual at the public hearing who lives on the north end of Denver Street and owned two lots. At that point in time, he was proposed to have two assessments. He indicated he had no desire to build on the second lot. At the public hearing, he was told that if he would combine his lots for tax purposes into one unit, his assessment would be based on one large unit. At the time of the preparation of the assessment roll, the combination of those two lots has not occurred, so that individual did receive notice of two assessments. We did calculate the assessment rate, however, based on one of those units dropping out of the assessment roll. Individuals may appeal this project assessment by presenting a signed, written objection to the Vice Mayor at the hearing. An individual simply standing up at the assessment hearing indicating their objection to this project does not constitute an assessment appeal. Following the submission of a signed, written objection, the property owner also has to serve a notice of appeal upon the Mayor or City Administrator within 30 days after the adoption of the assessment roll, and must file this notice with the District Court within 10 days after serving the Mayor or City Administrator. At the close of the assessment hearing, it would be appropriate for the City Council to consider the attached resolution adopting the final assessment roll. This can be adopted with any modifications the City Council deems appropriate. If you have any questions, I will be in attendance at Monday evening's meeting. Sincerely, MSA, CONSULTING ENGINEERS Terry J. Maurer, P.E. TJM: tw Attachments 320-2511.feb
