URBAN STREET - A street that has curb and gutter, storm sewer, <br />and is constructed to current City design standards. <br />15. 8 "/3" URBAN SECTION - The basic street design section used by the <br />City for urban, residential streets. It consists of eight inches <br />(8 ") of class V base and three inches (3 ") of bituminous surface <br />for the roadway, concrete curb and gutter, as well as all <br />incidentals normally associated with the street construction <br />project. In some cases, this section will not be adequate due to <br />soil conditions, traffic loading, drainage factors, etc. When a <br />street is upgraded from this basic section in residential areas, <br />the added costs associated with any upgrades will be borne by the <br />City. <br />SECTION II <br />GENERAL POLICIES AND PROCEDURES <br />The following are general principles, policies and procedures <br />applicable to all types of improvement: <br />1. Municipal State Aid (MSA) funds will not be credited to offset <br />assessments as they will be utilized in a revenue pool fund to <br />offset total reconstruction program costs. <br />2. Special assessments will be levied as soon as practical. <br />Normally this will be within one year after substantial <br />completion of the project. <br />3. Special assessments are intended to reflect the influence of a <br />specific local improvement upon the value of the property. Where <br />the results of applying the foregoing rules appear to result in <br />an inequitable assessment, the comparative market values of the <br />lots in the area shall be considered with the ultimate test being <br />the increase in the market value of an affected parcel by at <br />least the amount of the proposed assessment. (Special Benefit <br />Principle) <br />4. Publicly owned properties, including, but not limited to, <br />municipal building sites, schools, parks, County, State and <br />Federal building sites, but not including public streets and <br />alleys, are regarded as being assessable on the same basis as if <br />such property were privately owned. The rate of assessment will <br />be calculated utilizing the commercial formula. <br />5. Revenue sources for these types of improvements will be many, <br />including, but not limited to assessments, MSA Funds, <br />infrastructure replacement funds, bonded indebtedness and general <br />3 <br />
