Closes the benefit hearing, and 2. Levies the assessments as proposed, and 3 Acknowledges that in each case the abutting property is specially benefitted in enhanced value in excess of the amount assessed for the improvement of Eastland Street from Miller Avenue to Carey Street. DISCUSSION: The 1986 Capital Improvement Program included funds for the improvement of Eastland Street from Miller Avenue to Carey Street. The street is in the Stop Six Target Area. The length of street between Miller and Village Creek Road has previously been constructed to City standards; the length from Village Creek to Carey Road has not Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funds will provide a portion of the construction cost. One- and two-family residences are not assessed. Eastland Street will be constructed with standard concrete pavement. Standard driveways, sidewalks and storm drains will be built where shown on the plans. On July 16, 1991 (M&C G-9222), the City Council established August 20, 1991, as the ' s date of the benefit hearing. Notice was given in accord with Article 1105b, Vernon Annotated Civil Statutes. An independent appraiser has provided a report that documents the enhancement to property values which results from the improvements. Based on standard City policy, the City Engineer's estimate, and the advice of the independent appraiser, the division of the estimated construction cost is: Property owners' share of cost $ 126,127.84 ( 10%) City's share of cost $1,200,866.16 ( 90%) Total cost $1,326,994.00 (100%) There are no unusual situations on this project that require special City Council consideration. The project is in Council District 5.
