-- tablishing the centerlines of Corum Avenue and Norkenzie Road. Mr. Teitzel explained that a S!lr"Je'j of the property would be the only way of accomplishing a true corner and the cit'-l engineers did not act in that capacity. Wi th regard to cO,Jcerns expressed by Mr. Page, Mr. 'l'ei tzel explained that the unit prices on the c9ntr2.ct were renegotiated because of delay in the construction due to weather conditions. However, the higher costs were not assessed. He added that the Bicycle COI:J1T/i ttee had wanted to try unpainted bike paths on Nor- kenzie because of the infrequent auto parking there and bikes being ridden in a marked lane some :~istC'.nce from the curb. It was understood this problem would be referred to the Birycle Committee. Discussion turned ba~k to Mr. Willener's objection to the assessment for sewer stub extension to his property with further explanation that a deferred assess- ment would constitute only a contingent liability, that Mr. Willener would have the choice of paying the assessment or accepting a deferral on the condition that it would be recor~ed for collection when and if the stub was used. Mr. Willener statc~ his understanding of that choice. However, he felt principle was involved and he said he would start litigation if necessary to recover damages for the flooding of the property, loss of fruit trees, and damage to the driveway. Panel members stated their conviction that it would not be proper to charge an assessment for service to a private property to the city's taxpayers as a whole and that the question of property damage would be the contractor's responsibility. Assistant Manager Martin commented that the city in a sense would become Mr. Willener's advocate with the contractor in the matter of property damage. e Recommendation: Levy assessments as proposed, granting to Mr. Willener the privilege of having the $258.75 assessment for second sewer stub deferred, interest free, to appear as a recorded lien against the property, and to be collected when and if the property was developed use made of the sewer service.
