MEMORANDUM February ~7, 1991 T0: Jack Billings, Hearing Official FROM: Michelle Cahill, Project Engineer SUBJECT: Response to hearing testimony - River Road Sanitary Sewer Assess- ment Basins A, B and C Attached are three letters received by February 26 at 5 p.m. concerning the proposed assessments far Sanitary Sewers in River Road Basins A, B, and C. We did not receive a letter from vora Heintz who indicated at the hearing that she would submit additional testimony. I have checked with the City Manager's office as well as the main Public Works office and no other letters were received there. This memo includes some additional information about lots developed as park- ing lots; a revised recommendation for the proposed assessment where a "wye" was provided to a lot on Elkay Drive with two houses; and estimated develop- ment costs and assessment of a twenty acre lot compared to a similar size parcel of developed properties. PARKING LOTS In the summer of 1990, River Road widening project was under construction. As part of the widening project right-of -way was acquired from tax 1 of 17-04-24-24-6900 owned by Roberta Konnie. The acquisition included area that was used for parking for the shopping center located on the tax lot. Damages were paid to Ms. Konnie for the diminished earning capacity of the shopping center due to the lass of parking. Ms. Konnie then purchased the adjoining tax lots X6600 and 6700} and improved them with additional asphalt paving to provide parking for the shopping center. Lots 6600 and 6700 had been uti- lized by Gull Industries and apparently were partially paved.} If there is a change of use for the shopping center the parking requirements would be reviewed and either the adjoining lots would be required as parking or the existing shopping center would have a reduction in current use. If there is nOt a change in use for lot 6900 then there is no process for review of the parking and ensuring code requirements are met. The use of the ad- joining tax lots for parking is voluntary on the part of Konnies' at the current time. Staff has reviewed with Mr. Konnie an option of signing a statement acknowlW edging further assessment for lots 6604 and 6700 where the parking lots are currently located} based on the 8" equivalent if the shopping center use is changed or the parking lots are further developed. Mr. Konnie is agreeable to this approach.
