" Mr. Anderson moved seconded by Mrs. Lauris that the bill be read the second time by council bill number only, with unanimous consent 'of the Council. Motion carried 'unanimously and the bill was read the second time by council bill number only. Mr. Henry Camarot, representing Edgewood Shopping Center, Inc., protested the assessment for storm sewers only. He said the Homebuilders Association also indicated an interest in this item. They feel the policy of assessing properties 'in new subdivisions for storm'sewers up to 24" is discriminatory since properties in other areas of the City are not subject to storm sewer assessments. Mr. Camarot asked that this council bill be held over so that additional information could be gathered on the City's policy with regard to storm sewer assessment. The City Manager said the Council adopted the policy that storm sewers up to 24" in new subdivisions would be paid for by the subdivider and property owner after many discussions between the Council, members of the Homebuilders Association, P:'anning Cormnissiori, and others. He said that this par- ticular project was petitioned by the subdivider with the knowledge that the cost of storm sewers would be assessed, and that the ordinance authorizing the project included storm sewers and was passed at a public hearing with no protest from the subdivider. He further stated that if the City is challenged on this policy, it may be that assessment for future projects will have to be made be- fore the work is done arid the City I S funds used. . Councilman Purdy asked about contracts between subdividers and the City covering cost of 'storm sewers, and the Manager explained that contracts were used prior to adoption of the assessment policy and before notification was given and public hearings held on storm sewer projects.
