RESOLUTION NO. 70 -51
RESOLUTION CORRECTING STREET ASSESSMENT FOR IMPROVEMENT
PROJECT NO. 1967 -37 ON PLAT 89010 PARCEL 2810
WHEREAS, the above listed property was assessed 250.0 feet
for street surfacing on Improvement Project No. 1967 -37; and
WHEREAS, the property owner has paid the 1969 assessment in-
stallment of $195.86; and
WHEREAS, the property does not abut the paved roadway on
Lakeside Avenue except by extended driveway; however, the property
does abut the existing end of Azelia Avenue North; and
WHEREAS, the property is presently used as a single family
residence and is zoned General Industrial (I -2); and
WHEREAS, when the property is further developed, further
costs will be incurred by the development or by City assessments
if the work is done by City forces; and
WHEREAS, the property does not benefit from the full 250
feet of footage because the paved street is not abutting the said
property; and
WHEREAS, the property benefits from the paved street and
therefore should share in the cost of the project at the same rate
as the majority of property owners in the assessment area; and
WHEREAS, Illustration no. 8 in the Special Assessment Pro-
cedures Manual of the City of Brooklyn Center states, "The footage
of a residential building site with side lines which diverge from
one another at the'street 20 or more shall be adjusted for assess-
ment purposes. In such a case, the front footage shall be considered
as equal to the building site area divided by typical depth of 135
feet, or, equal to the average front footage of those non- adjusted
building sites in the block whose individual areas do not exceed
the subject building; site, whichever is least. In no event, however,
shall front footage be less than the actual front footage of the
building site. and
WHEREAS, it has been determined that the average assessable
footage of non adjusted building sites in the area is 56.29 feet;
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of the
City of Brooklyn Center to direct the Hennepin County Auditor to
correct the street assessment as follows:
