Mr. <br />Raatikka further stated that the total project cost is estimated at $36,400 <br />and bids came in quite a bit under that figure, the City plans to assess <br />out $15,000 and the City will pick up the remaining $21,000. <br /> <br />City Attorney Goodrich informed Council of the alternatives before them: <br />proceed with condemnation, direct City Engineer to realign road, conduct <br />assessment hearing prior to construction. <br /> <br />Motion by Councilmember Sorteberg and seconded by Councilmember Reimann to <br />adopt Resolution #83-78 to table any further action and to declare costs <br />to be assessed and calling for public hearing for special assessments for <br />167th west of County Rd..#5 (Street Improvement Project #83-2), further <br />that said hearing is to be held at 7:30 p.m. on June 28, 1983.
