MINUTES REGULAR CITY COUNCIL MEETING AUGUST 27, 1986 PAGE 3 ORDINANCE 0-86-14 AN ORDINANCE AMENDING SECTION 7-1.02, SUBDIVISION 3(a) OF THE MUNICIPAL CODE RELATING TO IMPOUNDING OF VEHICLES PUBLIC HEARING ON ASSESSMENTS FOR IMPROVEMENTS TO HAMLINE AVE. AND ALLEY SOUTH OF LARPENTEUR, ALBERT ST. TO HAMLINE AVE. At 8:00 P.M. Baldwin opened the public hearing on assessments to Hamline Ave. and alley south of Larpenteur, Albert St. to Hamline Ave. and presented the affidavits of publication and mailing. He informed the public any questions relating to construction may be discussed with the city and County engineers following the hearing. Baldwin stated one senior citizen hardship deferral request has been received and that such requests will be reviewed individually as the city has no set policy relating to deferrals. Schroeder explained state statute does allow considering deferral for seniors 65 or older or anyone retired due to total disability. The deferral request will be placed on the September 10th agenda to allow time to obtain information on deferrals from other governmental agencies. STEVE HORAZDOVSKY, OWNER OF THE SERVICE STATION AT 1565 HAMLINE, asked what the interest rate and length of term for the assessment would be, to which Baldwin replied it would be 8$ for 10 years. BEVERLY DOBIN, 1362 W. LARPENTEUR, asked when the alley will be completed and commented driveways are breaking down due to the construction. Schunieht stated the alley is scheduled to be completed the next day (August 28th), and Baldwin recommended Mrs. Dobin discuss her other problems with the engineers following the hearing. Baldwin read into the record a letter from CONSTANCE AND ROBERT OLSON, 1386 W. LARPENTEUR, objecting to the assessment as the alley does not drain properly and they object to paying for poor construction. Schunieht assured the alley will be reconstructed to drain properly. Baldwin explained the decision to construct a sidewalk on Hamline from Idaho to Larpenteur was made following receipt of a petition signed by 50 persons and 2 of 3 three property owners abutting the sidewalk deciding they would like the sidewalk. The vote of approval was taken by phone and passed 3 to 2. Since there were no others wishing to be heard Baldwin closed the hearing at 8:22 P.M. Chenoweth moved, seconded by Wallin, adoption of Resolution R-86-33. Motion carried unanimously.
