Not all of the work is complete <br />at this point but in order to give the residents 30 days to prepay the <br />assessment with no interest, the public hearings had to be held by September <br />15. After October 15, the assessments are automatically added to the property <br />taxes. The balance of the assessments can be paid each year prior to October <br />15 to avoid paying the interest for the remaining years. Basically the work to <br />be completed is on these projects is sweeping, cleanup and final inspection. <br />Mr. Raatikka then quoted the total cost and per unit cost for Projects 86-3, 4, <br />5, 6 and 7. <br /> <br />CITIZEN INPUT <br /> <br />Terrence Mox - 16530 Yolite Street - Stated that his letter from the City looks <br />like he has been included in Carol Rose Acres and his assessment is $166.17. <br /> <br />Mr. Raatikka stated that Mr. Mox is in the Sports Haven project and $166.17 is <br />the correct assessment for him. <br /> <br />Mr. Mox - Stated that when the roads were blacktopped, there was a verbal <br />agreement with the City that the City would maintain the roads; why is this <br />sealcoating being assessed? A former neighbor is a foreman for Minneapolis <br />Streets Department and he says that sealcoating should be done 2-3 years after <br />street construction; Ramsey is about 4 years too late.
