September 8, 1980 Mr. Gotwald noted that the assessment rolls.must be adopted by Resolution and then the property owners have 30 days in which to prepay the assessments. The assessments must be certified to the County Auditor before Oct. 10, 1980. Mr. Schumacher suggested that some response be made to Mr. Peterson's concerns. He read the st$tements from the Fiscal agent recommending the procedure for pre- payment of the specials. Mr. Schumacher suggested that the specials be prepaid at the time of occupancy. Mr. McLean felt this would be hard to police. Mr. Jaworski felt this is an effort on the part of the developer to force the specials onto the purchaser. Mr. Gotwald said there are several different owners in this area and, in almost all the loan institutions that he had checked, the specials must be prepaid before a mort- gage will be approved. There was discussion on this point with Mayor Gourley pointing out that the recom- mendations of the bonding agent to collect the assessments at the time the building permit is issued is unusual. He felt that this requirements should be at the time of closing and when an occupancy permit is issued. Mr. Schumacher pointed out that the bond issue of $935,000.00 must be paid as of December 1, 1983. Prepayments are important for the repayment of this money. Mr. McLean moved to approve the Assessments Rolls as presented by Mr. Gotwald, and this assessment be applied per front footage to all affected property. Seconded by Mr. Jaworski-:. Motion carried unanimously. Mr. Locher pointed out that the League has a proposed Resolution for the acceptance of this assessment roll. Mr. Locher will prepare this Resolution. This assessment is for a period of 10 years at 8 %. Mir,. McLean moved on the basis if, a Feinforced occupancy permit by the City Staff, that the full amount of the assessment be due and payable at the time of occupancy. Seconded by Mrs. Elsenpeter.

Mr. Schumacher reported that Mr. LeRoux had submitted the proper Certificate of Survey for the transfer of a parcel of property of less than the required frontage.
