RESOLUTION CONCERNING IMPROVEMENTS IN DANEBO AVENUE (memo, resolution distributed) City Manager Micheal Gleason introduced the agenda item. Bert Teitzel of the Public Works Department presented the staff report. He explained that the resolution was a re-enactment of a previous resolution due to changes in the assessment procedure and allowed for the pre-assessment of the projects as now conducted by the City. In response to a question, Mr. Teitzel explained that the pre-assessment eliminated the need for short-term notes; therefore, the pre-assessment eliminated the need to charge the property owners the additional interest from those notes. He said the pre-assessment would be less expensive for the property owner, although they would have to begin paying for the assessment at an earlier date. He added that it has been difficult for the City to obtain decent rates on short-term notes. Ms. Wooten stated that she had discussed the issue with the City Attorney.s Office which had responded with a memorandum. Ms. Schue stated that she had received the memorandum, but she had been unaware that the pre-assessment would be less expensive for the property owners. - MINUTES--Eugene City Council March 14, 1984 Page 7
