AN ORDINANCE AMENDING CHAPTER 4, SECTION 4.50 OF THE CITY CODE OF RAMSEY, MINNESOTA. The City of Ramsey Ordains: SECTION 1. AMENDMENT ao Section 4.50 entitled Ramsey's Financing Policy and specifically Sections 4.50.01, Subd. 1.b "Residential Street" and Subd. 2 "Sealcoating" are amended to read as follows: b. Residential Street The total cost of initial street construction shall be specially assessed to benefiting property owners on a unit method or front foot basis. 50% of the cost for reconstruction or overlays on existing bituminous streets shall be specially assessed to the benefiting property owners. The remaining 50% of this cost shall be paid from the City's General Fund. However, when a previously proposed sealcoating project has been defeated by petition, the benefited property owners shall be assessed 100% of the project cost. The reason for this 100% assessment is because when a sealcoating project has been defeated by petition, this means that the affected street has not received proper maintenance and therefore the cost of recon- struction and/or an overlay will be substantially more than if the street had received sealcoating in a timely fashion. On M.S.A. streets which provide access to residential lots, 50% of the cost for the reconstruction/overlays for a typical residential street shall be specially assessed to the benefiting property owners with the remaining cost being paid from the M.S.A. maintenance fund. Subd. 3. Seal Coating The total cost for the initial sealcoating on City streets shall be specially assessed to the benefited property owners on a front foot or unit basis.
