PAUL <br /> <br />WASECA <br /> <br />Dear Council Members: <br /> <br />The public hearing and assessment hearing for the proposed reconstruction of Lowell <br />Avenue between TH 10 and Main Street is scheduled for Monday, March 3, 1997. The <br />project consists of reconstructing the existing street to a similar width and reconstructing <br />the adjacent sidewalks where necessary. The proposed assessment is $42.00 per front <br />foot. There are four affected property owners along Lowell Avenue. They are Cretex <br />Companies, Jarmoluk Family Trust, Beaudry Oil and Services, and Sherburne County. <br />As the plans were prepared for this project late last year, all four of these property <br />owners were contacted and the proposed project was discussed with them. With the <br />pending sale of the Sherburne County property to the School District, we have also <br />contacted Ron Bratlie of the School District and discussed the proposed improvement and <br />assessment with him. <br /> <br />As a matter of convenience to the affected property owners, the City is holding the public <br />hearing and the assessment hearing the same evening. I will be prepared to give a brief <br />presentation on the project scope, the proposed assessments, and be available to answer <br />any questions the public and/or City Council may have. <br /> <br />At this time, the City has not received any formal written appeals from property owners. <br />Individuals may appeal this project assessment by presenting a signed, written objection <br />to the Vice Mayor at the assessment hearing. An individual simply standing up at the <br />assessment hearin~ indicating their o~ection to this project does not constitute an <br />assessment appeal. Following the submission of a signed, written objection, the property <br />owner also has to serve notice of appeal upon the Mayor or City Administrator within 30 <br />days after the adoption of the assessment roll, and must file this notice with the District <br />Court within 10 days after serving the Mayor or City Administrator. <br /> <br />An Equal Opportunity Employer <br /> <br /> <br />
