RESOLUTION NO. 85 -34
RESOLUTION AMENDING ASSESSMENT POLICY RELATING TO STREET
RECONSTRUCTION
WHEREAS, on February 10, 1964, the Brooklyn Center City Council
adopted the Brooklyn Center Assessment Procedure Manual as a guideline for
the special assessment of costs related to public improvements; and
WHEREAS, a current report prepared by the Director of Public Works
indicates that the benefit received from the installation of concrete curb
and gutter and related street paving improvements is most equitably levied
on a residential unit basis as opposed to the frontage basis; and
WHEREAS, the City Council deems it in the best interests of the City
to amend existing special assessment policies to reflect the residential
unit basis of assessment related to such street improvement projects:
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL of the City of
Brooklyn Center that the following special assessment policy be established
for street reconstruction projects in residentially -zoned areas, which consist
of the installation of concrete curb and gutter and related street paving
improvements paced under contract in 1985:
1. for residential properties, zoned or used as single- family
sites, which are not subdividable under the City's Subdivision
Ordinance, the unit rate of assessment shall be $1,200.00.
2. for properties in R -2 zoned districts, which are not used as
single family sites, the equivalent rate shall be $16.00 per
front foot, with a minimum assessment of $1,200.00.
3. for properties in R -3 zoned districts the assessment rate per
residential unit shall be established by the following
formula:
Assessable frontage x $16.00
Number of residential units
4. the assessment rates in R -4, R -5, R -6, and R -7 zoned districts
shall be individually established based on an evaluation of
project costs and project benefits.
