Acting Mayor Hodges asked Engineer Bearden to explain the cost for Project 1973 -4.
Engineer Bearden indicated that the total cost of the Project is $1,401,325 which

Engineer Bearden explained that for work done to extend Ardan Avenue and
for approximately 18.8% of the storm sewer work an MSA grant of $82,000.00
should be received. Applying this amount to the total Project cost, the
net total for assessment purposes will be $1,319,325.
Council discussed whether the entire $82,000 of the MSA grant should be
applied to the Project cost and it was unanimously felt that it should be.
Mayor Johnson arrived at 6:20 p.m.
Council discussed the various assessment procedures and came to the conclusion
that the entire net cost of the Project after applying the MSA grant should be
assessed to the benefitting property owners as has been Council policy in
recent years.
MSP (Pickar- Hodges) to accept the engineers calculation of the total Project
cost of $1,401,325 and to apply $82,000 of MSA construction monies to
reduce the Project cost to $1.312,325. 5 Ayes
