MINUTES CITY COUNCIL FEBRUARY 23, 1994 owners the choice. Morelan felt that for the long-term, Option #2 would be the way to go according to the figures included in the feasibility report. Pedersen pointed out the additional cost to the City under Option #1. Morelan pointed out the statement in the street reconstruction policy that should a street not achieve its expected life, the property owner would get a rebate on the assessment on a pro-rated basis. Morelan pointed out that the Westwind Drive and Windrow Drive have existed for approximately 16 years, thus not achieving their 20 year life. The Administrator pointed out that the improvements being proposed are rehabilitations, therefore, he was not sure this provision applied. The policy provides that rehabilitations are assessed at 100%. Scalze suggested that these sorts of details be resolved, and that the matter be tabled until the next meeting. The Administrator reported that his concern is with the bidding cycle and getting the projects out for bid early enough to get good prices. Morelan felt that regardless of how the assessment fits into the policy, Option #2 appears the way to go. The Administrator reported that the proposed assessment roll for Option #2 will be revised to reflect a 100% assessment. The Administrator also suggested that the Council look at the Assessment Policy to decide if a 100% assessment for rehabilitations is the way it wants to go. Mrs. Scalze introduced the following resolution and moved its adoption: RESOLUTION NO. 94-2-47 - ACCEPTING THE FEASIBILITY REPORT FOR THE WESTWIND DRIVE AND WINDROW DRIVE IMPROVEMENT AS SUBMITTED BY TAE CITY ENGINEER, AND CALLING A PUBLIC HEARING TO CONSIDER THIS IMPROVEMENT 10
