MINUTES <br />CITY COUNCIL <br />February 14, 1990 <br />the width of Country Drive to 36 feet and curb and <br />gutter would be installed on both sides of the street. <br />Ed Nadeau, 2888 Nadeau Road, reported that at the <br />improvement hearing held two years ago, the proposed <br />cost of the improvement was $34 per front foot. <br />The City Engineer reported that at that time, the <br />Council considered assessing the property used as <br />residential at the residential rate. However, the <br />property along Country Drive is zoned commercial and <br />redevelopment of the area is being planned.
