Pudloski, President Robert Shonk, Finance Director Richard Figurelli, Superintendent of Water & Sewer Department James S. Tonkinson, City Engineer Members Absent: Thomas Olkowski, Superintendent of Street Department Others Present: Those indicated on attached attendance sheet The Board held a Public Hearing for the proposed paving of Dartmouth Place east of Crawford Avenue, Special Assessment 1369 at 7:30 P.M. in Room 2404 in the Civic Center located at 2100 Ridge Avenue, Evanston, Illinois. The Chair called the meeting to order at 7:35 P.M. The Chair introduced the members of the Board, indicating their staff posi- tion with the City and the requirement that they be on the Board and informed • those present that Mr. Olkowski, the Superintendent of Streets, was absent due to other commitments. The Chair then explained the purpose of the Board as a fact -gathering committee and to carry out the preparation and completion of special assessment projects. He also stated that the City Council has mandated that remaining unpaved streets in the City be paved, indicating that this policy was set in 1979 and, at that time, a.formula for cost -sharing was instituted. He infLormed those present that in 1979, approximately fourteen (14) miles of streets were unpaved and today the remaining streets to be paved represents approximately four -and -a -half (4.5) miles. The Chair then turned the meeting over to Mr. Shonk to explain the special assess- ment -procedures as they relate to collections and billing. Mr. Shonk informed those present of the ability to pay over a ten-year period with 7% simple interest being paid on the unpaid balance annually: Using an example he indicated that the interest due on the unpaid balance for the first anticipated payment in 1988 for this project would be approximately 1/12th of the annual. amount if collections would be ordered in September as there are sixty days from that date that no interest would run, therefore, interest would begin on December lst. Mr. Shonk asked if there were any questions concerning the collection process. In response to a question he indicated that the interest on the payments were tax-deductible, however, the principle was not and that the principle could be applied against the value of the home as it was an improvement. :uL_s of the Board of Local Improvements -May 28, 1987 - Page 2 • The Chair then turned the meeting over to the Engineer for the Board who covered the two estimates... one for paving the street with asphalt and the estimate for the alternate for paving the street with concrete. The Engineer for the Board stated the construction costs and the total costs for both manners of paving and explained how the formula for cost -sharing was applied and that the cost for the assessable foot in this case was $99.00 representing less than the cost derived ,;�)y.the 2/3 Rule. With use of the visual aids, the Engineer explained the overall design and answered questions concerning the drainage, the curbs and gutters, the need to move a street light and the manner in which water from the street and the alley returns would enter the sewer system. He also stated that 4" restrictors would be placed in the catch basin outlets to retain water in the streets for a short period of time during a heavy storm. The President and Engineer for the Board answered questions concerning the relation- ship of the curb with respect to the existing trees and its effect upon the health of the trees. A discussion took place concerning the design width of the street with the Engineer for the Board explaining the need for a 27' wide street. There being no further questions concerning the design, the Engineer, with the use of visual aids, explained the manner and derivation for assessing the effected par- cels for paving of Dartmouth Place. He also stated that the assessment was an assessment on the property and that the obligation to pay said assessment stays with the property, even when ownership changes. The President then asked if there were any further questions at which time the Board was presented with a petition requesting a 24' wide street signed by owners represent- ing eight parcels of land to be assessed. A discussion ensued in which the President •asked for a showing of hands of those present that would support the 27' width of street as proposed in the design. There was no show of hands. The President then asked for a motion. Mr. Tonkinson made a motion to amend the design to provide for a 24' wide street while moving the proposed south curb north three feet and to recom- mend that the special assessment process proceed and to adhere to the first resolution of the Board as amended. Mr. Figurelli seconded the motion which passed unanimously. The members .of the Board then signed the recommendation and the amended adhering resolution. The President informed those present that the report and recommendation, along with an ordinance, would be presented to the Administration and Public Works Committee at its next meeting. There being no further business, the President adjourned the Public Hearing at 8:45 P.M. OCatymes S. Tonkinson iEngineer JST/ad attch. cc/Joel M.
