Due to <br />the tremendous demand for infrastructure maintenance and improvements, I <br />recommended that the County Board establish certain limits to the County's <br />infrastructure obligation in lieu of raising property taxes. I identified general <br />participation practices conducted by Sherburne County in the past and incorporated <br />other generally accepted practices in county municipal projects in Minnesota. The result <br />is a 'Draft' of the Sherburne County Construction Cost Participation Policy. I have <br />enclosed a copy for your review and comment. I will relay your comments to the <br />County Board at the November 12th Board Meeting. So, please have your comments to <br />me in writing by November 5, 1997. Thank You in advance for taking the time to make <br />comments. <br /> <br />If you should require any other information please contact me at 441-1722. <br /> <br />Sincerely, <br /> <br />Dave Schwarting, <br />County Engineer <br /> <br /> <br />
