The motion passed <br />unanimously, 7:0. <br /> <br />Mr. Johnson announced that the council would consider Council Bill 4682 by number <br />only. <br /> <br />Mr. Meisner moved, seconded by Ms. Nathanson, that Council Bill 4682 be approved <br />and given final passage. Roll call vote. <br /> <br />Mr. Farr noted that Mel Lemon had concerns regarding the passage of the ordinance, <br />in particular the farm property deferral. He asked if Mr. Lemon was satisfied with the <br />outcome of his discussions with City staff. Mr. Lyle responded that Mr. Lemon's <br />property was outside the city limits, and staff suggested he discuss the continuation of <br />the deferral with Lane County. He reminded the council that it had adopted a large lot <br />deferral program which staff had hoped the County would support; the County had <br />chosen not to support the program to this point, and Mr. Lemon was disappointed by <br />that. Mr. Lyle had recommended he discuss the issue with the County. <br /> <br />Responding to a question from Mr. Rayor, Mr. Lyle said that there were a few <br />properties outside the city limits that the City would not be assessing for storm or <br />wastewater services because those services could be extended until annexation <br />occurred. Those properties were included in the calculation of cost per square foot for <br />the distribution. He said that the City would bear the initial costs of those <br />improvements and assess those properties an equivalent assessment upon <br />annexation. Mr. Rayor asked what authority the City had to require that repayment. <br />Mr. Lyle said that those payments were required for properties to connect to public <br />facilities. <br /> <br />Mr. Farr said that the project was associated with the new school complex on <br />Meadowview Drive, and made the school project possible. <br /> <br />Responding to a question from Mr. Pap~, Mr. Lyle identified double-fronted lots <br />included in the project. He said that there were four of five such properties located on <br />a private street in the subdivision; as a condition of development, the owners had <br /> <br /> <br />
