Schedule 3
The following written protests on Schedule 3 were presented:
53-3-3-1 - Dudley A. Robnett, M. D.
Protested that topography of the land makes connecting to the sewer im-
practical; also proposed assessment of 1-1/2 units.
53-3-2-1 - Jack E. Garnett
Protested cost of service to his home; also the proposed assessment of
3 units.
There were no oral protests on Schedule 3.
Mr. Horstkotte, Engineer for Local Improvement District No. 53, stated
another property in Schedule 3, Assessment No. 53-3-3-3, owner Flood Morss,
. has the same problem as Robnett and Garnett.
He suggested that the District Board reduce the assessment units with
the thought that, should the property be divided and sold in the future,
the owners then seeking service would pay an equalization charge to be fixed
by the Board.
After discussion, it was moved by Member Allan, seconded by Member
Rustigian, that the protests of Dudley A. Robnett, M. D., Assessment No.
53-3-3-1, and Jack E. Garnett, Assessment No. 53-3-2-1, be denied, and
they and Flood Morss, Assessment No. 53-3-3-3, be offered the option of
accepting a modified assessment with the stipulation that this becomes
due and payable with 7% interest if the property is developed into more
sites than the amount assessed for service. Carried by the following vote:
