MEMORANDUM
February 13, 2006
TO:
The Honorable Mayor and City Council Members
FROM:
Michael C. Van Milligen, City Manager
SUBJECT: 2005 Sidewalk Assessment Project - Bid #2
The second part of the 2005 Sidewalk Inspection Program consisted of inspection of
504 properties, of which 304 were notified of defects. The City received compliance
from the majority of property owners and granted 42 extensions until June 1, 2006.
Nine properties did not complete the replacements as required.
In such situations, the policy of the City is to correct the defects and levy the
construction costs against the abutting property owners in the form of a special
assessment, including an administrative charge and a $50 permit fee.
City Engineer Gus Psihoyos recommends that total assessments of $7,665.19 be levied
against nine separate parcels of property.
I concur with the recommendation and respectfully request Mayor and City Council
approval.
