(3) <br /> <br />Front Footage - For assessment purposes, front footage is <br />the actual front footage to be used in the case of normal <br />rectangular lots. For odd-shaped lots, approximately <br />rectangular lots, shallow lots, corner lots, large tracts, <br />double-frontage lots and neck lots, front footage shall be <br />adjusted as follows: <br /> <br />(a) <br /> <br />Odd-shaped Lots - For odd-shaped lots, such as exist on <br />cul-de-sac or triangular intersections, etc., the <br />adjusted front footage is computed by dividing the area <br />of the lot by the average depth. The maximum front <br />footage for an odd-shaped lot shall be two hundred <br />(200) feet or the average footage of the rectangular- <br />shaped lot in the area, whichever is greater. <br /> <br />(b) <br /> <br />Approximately Rectangular Lots - For a lot which is <br />approximately rectangular, the adjusted front footage <br />is computed by averaging the front and back sides of <br />the lot. ~nis method is used only where the divergence <br />between front and rear lot lines is five (5) feet or <br />less. <br /> <br />(c) <br /> <br />Shallow Lots - For rectangular lots under one hundred <br />twenty (120) feet in depth, or irregular lots averaging <br />less than one hundred twenty (120) feet in depth, the <br />adjusted front footage is determined by actual lot area <br />divided by one hundred twenty (120) feet. <br /> <br />(d) <br /> <br />Corner Lots- Corner lots are treated like any other <br />lot relative to front footage. The side footage is <br />computed at one-third (1/3) of the total side distance. <br />The other two-thirds (2/3) side distance is assessed to <br />the total project. <br /> <br />(e) <br /> <br />Large Tracts - Large tracts may have adjusted front <br />footage on two (2) or more sides. This adjusted front <br />footage shall apply only to improvements on the <br />particular street upon which the adjusted front footage <br />faces. The corners of these large tracts shall be <br />considered as side frontage. Corner credits are given <br />on last side assessed. <br /> <br />(f) <br /> <br />Double-frontage Lots- For double-frontage lots, a <br />single adjusted front footage is computed by using <br />method a, b, or c. This shall apply only to the street <br />upon which improvements take place. If both streets <br />are improved, then front footage shall amount to both <br />added together. <br /> <br />(g) <br /> <br />Neck Lots - For lots which have a small frontage on a <br />street, with a narrow strip running back one hundred <br />twenty (120) feet or more, an adjusted frontage of one <br />hundred (100) feet or the average of the adjacent is <br />arbitrarily assigned. <br /> <br />The types of improvements to be assessed on this basis are: <br />Trunk and lateral water, sanitary sewer and street and storm <br />drainage improvements for subdivision of residential, <br />industrial and co~ercial properties. <br /> <br />Resolution # 85-89 <br />Page 4 of 12 <br /> <br /> <br />
