thought the road would eventually go, but now the road has gone in on
the east and their house faces the wrong direction.
A. Zielinski, 8344 Groveland Road, said he has no intention to split his
lot unless he is forced into it. He lost thirty feet of his garden for the
new street and thus feels he has no benefit.
Frank Gabrf!sh, 2832 County Road J, asked what his assessment would be.
He feels the water service on the new road does not benefit his property.
Ingvald Johnson , 8384 Long Lake Road, stated he had area storm water
assessments from Ardan Avenue and now receives storm water assessment for this
project. He objects to the assessment.
Mr. Rubenstein stated he also objects to the assessment because it would be
greater than the improved value of his client's property.
Mrs. Huhne, 8406 Red Oak Drive, argues if she could subdivide but not get the
value of the assessment out of it, she would object.
Herman Wiese, 8465 Groveland Road, asked if he would be assessed for frontage
on the new street.
Engineer Bearden answered yes.
Alice Robinson, 8340 Long Lake Road said she is not interested in splitting
the lot now. she asked if when she does want to split the lot, whether she
would be allowed to do so because her lot is only 75 feet wide.
Councilman Shelquist stated the Planning Commission would probably allow
such a subdivision because the 75 feet will front on the new street,
and it would not be fair to deny them such a subdivision.
Mayor Johnson answered affirmatively to a question about whether the market
value of the improved lots would exceed the cost of this improvement assessment.
Seegar Swanson explained the assessment procedure for spreading the payments
over fifteen years at 8 percent. He stated the principal will be divided
equally and the interest will be on the unpaid balance.
Alice Robinson, 840 Long Lake Road, stated some complaints about the
construction.
