The final assessment hearing was scheduled for April 12, 2006, to review the final project costs, consider comments on the proposed final assessments, and to provide opportunity for property owners to submit evidence to be included in the ordinance levying the assessments by the City Council. There were no requests from property owners to speak at the hearing, so the hearing was cancelled. Final assessment costs were distributed per Eugene Code 7.175, and as outlined in the council-adopted Hearings Official findings and recommendations, and the resolution forming the LID.

The non-assessable City share for this project is funded from Road Fund, in the amount of $75,120.82, Wastewater Utility Fund, in the amount of $15,835.96, and Stormwater SDC Funds, in the amount of $66,487.93. Transportation SDC funds may only be used on arterial and collector street projects. The cost increases in the final project costs were due to additional excavation and base rock necessary to stabilize the base of the roadway due to soft road bed, design modifications during construction requested by property owners to accommodate safety and maintenance issues, modifications to the existing wastewater lines to bring them up to current City standard, additional storm drainage improvements to accommodate springs within the project that surfaced during heavy rains this winter prior to final completion of the project, additional utility relocation costs and delays and additional coordination work due to delays in completion of work by the utility companies to relocate their facilities.
