<br />23RD AVENUE, INTRODUCED AND READ THE FIRST TIME IN fULL ON FEBRUARY 23, 1960, WAS BROUGHT ON fOR
<br />CONSIDERATION. THE CITY MANAGER REPORTED ONE WRITTEN PROTEST ON FILE AS F"OLLOWS:
<br />
<br />"REGARDING YOUR ASSESSMENT NOTICE AGAINST MY PROPERTY AT 1910 PIERCE ST. IN EUGENE.
<br />YES I DO OBJECT, BUT DONT ASK ME TO APPEAR THERE IN PERSON, LET THIS lETTER BE MY OBJEC-
<br />TION AS I DONT HAVE THE EXTRA MONEY TO APPEAR THERE.
<br />
<br />THIS IS THE fiRST NOTICE OF" ANY KIND THAT I HAVE RECEIVED REGARDING THE PAVING OF
<br />P,ERCE ST.' IT SEEMS SO WRONG. I KEEP WONDERING; WHY WAS'ENT I GIVEN 1i':>VOTE OR VOICE
<br />. I N THE MA'TTER BEfORE THE STREET WAS PAVED? I F MY LETTER SOUNDS RUDE, I DON'T MEAN TO
<br />BE, JUST EXPRESSING fACTS. IT SEEMS SO UN-DEMOCRATIC. I WAS NEVER ASKED If I WANTED
<br />THE STREET PAVED IN fRONT OF MYPROPERTY, I WAS NEVER NOTIFIED OR CONTACTED IN ANY WAY
<br />OR GIVEN A VOICE' IN THE MATTER, AND.NOW 'HEREIS A STATEMENT. -"WE. HAVE'.PAVED THE STREET
<br />. I N FRONT. OF YOUR PROPERTY; NOW YOU PAY F"OR IT, $409.93 PLEASE .,"
<br />
<br />SECOND THE ASSESSMENT SEEMS AWFUL HIGH. SEVERAL YEARS AGO A EUGENE REAL ESTATE
<br />MAN HAD TRO,UBLE TRY.ING TO SELL MY PROPERTY,. FOR .$3500.00.: . I .DOUBT VERY MUCH IF I COULD.'
<br />GE,T ANY MORE. FOR .,THE ,PROPERTY I f I: WERE T.O PUT, liT. UP. F"OR SALE A.GA IN. . THE ABOVE PR I CE
<br />WAS WHAT THE REAL ESTATE MAN SAID IT SHOUlD SELL FOR. THIS MAKES YOUR ASSESSMENT ALMOST
<br />12% OF THE VALUE OF THE PROPERTY.
<br />
<br />. -LAST ,.THE STREET IS. VERY NICE PAVED,. BUT HAD. I. BEEN GIVEN. A ,VO I CE I N THE MATTER. I
<br />WOULD DEFINITELY HAVE OPPOSED IT FOR THIS REASON. THIS PLACES ME IN AN EMBARRASSING
<br />SITUATION, AS I AM IN THE LOW-INCOME BRACKET, AND TO STATE IT PLAINLY, "\ JUST DONT
<br />HAVE THAT KIND OF MONE,Y. ", lAM NOT. RECE IV I NG RENT; AS MY DAUGHTER I SL I V I NG IN THE
<br />. HOUSE" SHE '1 S AT.TEND ING BIBLE STANDARD COLLEGE THERE AND TH I S I SPART, OF MY HELP TO
<br />HER F"OR HER COllEGE EXPENSES. \ HAVE HAD A HARD TIME KEEPING THE PLACE UP, AND PAY-
<br />ING TAXES, AND NOW THIS."

<br />RECTOR OF PUBLI C WORKS' EXPLA I'NED A PERM I T FOR THE SEWER. LI NE HAD BEEN APPL I ED FOR IN APR I L 1949
<br />BUT RECORDS OF THE BUILDING DEPARTMENT DO NOT INDICATE IT HAD BEEN INSPECTED, THAT IN.JUNE 1949
<br />A GRADE FOR THIS STREET WAS ESTABLISHED AND, BASED ON THE EVIDENCE OBTAINED AT THE TIME THE STREET
<br />WAS BEING PAVED, THE SEWER LINE WAS APPROXIMATELY 24" BELOW GRADE WHILE A CITY ORDINANCE REQUIRES
<br />IT TO BE AT LEAST 30~ BELOW GRADE~ . IN ORDER TO ALLOW FOR THE STREET_PAVING A ~EW,CONCRETE LINE WAS
<br />CONSTRUCTED fROM THE CITY SEWER LATERAL TO THE HEIN PROPERTY LINE.
<br />

<br />OCCUR FREQUENTLY IN AREAS WHERE SEWERS HAD'BEEN INSTALLED fOR SOME TIME AND WHERE' STREETS. ARE JUST
<br />BEING PAVED. SOME CONSIDERABLE DISCUSSION WAS HELD ON THIS BETWEEN THE COUNCIL, MR. ALLEN REPRESENT-
<br />ING MR. AND MRS. HEIN, AND THE DIRECTOR Of' PUBL.IC WORKS.
