Subsequent to the preparation of the TOR, evidence was sub- mitted that W. R. Grove, developer of the area, had contributed the equivalent of 80 cents per front foot for paving Craig between Haynie Street and Handley Drive under a 1951 City polit.,y whereby the cost of asphalt and half of the gravel was paid by adjacent property owners, and the excavation and half of the gravel was paid by the City. Based upon this information submitted by Hr. Grove, it is proposed that pro- perty owners he given a reconstruction credit for the paving between Haynie to Handley Drive, with assessments to be made for curb and gutter only where none now exists. The section west of Haynie Street to Loop 1-820 is proposed for standard assessments, unless property owners in this section can also sub- mit evidence of previous participation in the cost of the paving. In the section west of Haynie, as portion, of the paving appears to be widened penetra- tion asphalt, and as portion appears to be high-crown coursy section type road- way. ,u, DATE NUMBER ct S1USJLCT.
