INFORM,ZATIONAL HEARING - PROPOSED IMPROVEMENTS ON SUNSET ROAD BY BLAINE AND ANOKA COUNTY - RESOLUTION #08 -86 Blaine City Engineer, Bob Wiegert, introduced himself and explained that Blaine is installing sanitary sewer and municipal water along Sunset Road from 105th Avenue to 108th Avenue. These services have already been installed between North Road and 105th Avenue. Blaine has set up a tax increment district for this area for the municipal installations and have asked the County to upgrade the street to include storm sewer. Anoka County has responded by saying they would not upgrade Sunset Road unless the Lino Lakes side of Sunset Road was serviced with sewer and water. Mr. Wiegert explained Blaine is proposing to service Lino Lakes along Sunset Road with both sewer and water and defer payment of the assessments until the services are needed. The deferred assessment could be paid at the time the connection is completed. The cost of this assessment would be approximately $4,200 per lot. The cost of the street improvement which includes storm sewer and driveway easements would be approximately $1,030. This would be financied by an assessment on the property at this time. Mayor Benson asked if the $4,200 assessment is for all lots regard- less of size. Mr. Wiegert said yes. Mayor Benson asked if the resident connects to the sewer and water facilities five years from now would the assessment still be $4,200. Mr. Wiegert said it would be adjusted by the ENR Minneapolis Construction Cost Index. A resident asked if he connects to Blaine now and later Lino Lakes installs their own system, will he be assessed again. Mayor Benson said no.
