-6- Copies of the revised Public Improvements Assessment Policy, the detailed Fact Sheet • requested of staff at the Council 's February 4th work session, and the proposed Notice of the Hearing scheduling the hearing on the reconstruction of St. Anthony Boulevard March 25th, had been included in the agenda packet and the Manager had distributed before the meeting copies of the proposed amendment Cf) to Section 2.7 of the Assessment Policy, which he indicated had been based on his conversation with the City Attorney regarding the changes proposed by the Council . As a point of clarification, Councilmember Marks suggested inserting "load carrying axle weight capacity" after "ton" in both the Policy and Notice of the Hearing. Councilmember Makowske suggested adding the words "odd shaped, cul du sac lots, and lots on winding streets" as clarification of the "special circumstances" in Cb) under Section 2.2 of the Policy. Councilmember Ranallo's addition of the statement "non-residential property owners would pay for both sides of the street" to the paragraph describing corner lot assessments was also accepted and the wording of the paragraph headed "Sidewalks" was revised to indicate that residents who wished to replace the sidewalks on their properties should make their own arrangements with the contractors to do so. The $10.50 per foot street assessment in the original paragraph remained as written. Staff had tentatively proposed a 5% discount for full prepayment of the assessment which Councilmember Enrooth indicated he would like to see changed to 10%. This change was supported by the Mayor and Councilmember Marks, but Councilmembers Makowske and Ranallo indicated they perceived a 7% discount should provide enough incentive to pay off the assessments. The 10% figure prevailed in the 3 to 2 vote. 'Motion by Councilmember Marks and seconded by Councilmember Makowske to adopt • resolution 86-014, as amended.
