The Public Works Department is recommending City Council initiate a special assessment portion of the program, where property owners will be notified of financial responsibility to repair defective curbs, gutters, sidewalks and driveway approaches.
Council must pass a resolution declaring the necessity for the project. The issue is on the council’s caucus agenda for Wednesday, and is expected to act on the request at a later meeting.
If council approves the resolution, the city’s finance director will send a preliminary assessment notice to property owners and schedule a meeting of the Board of Revisions of Assessment to hear appeals and complaints.
