HomeMy WebLinkAboutIX-01(a,b) 2023 Neighborhood Infrastructure Improvements - Public Hearing - Resolution to Order the Improvements and Adopt Assessments City Council Memorandum
To: Mayor Fasbender & City Council Members
From: Ryan Stempski – Public Works Director/City Engineer
Date: March 29, 2023
Item: Conduct Public Hearing & Consider Resolution to Order Improvements & Adopt Assessments for the
2023 Neighborhood Infrastructure Improvements
COUNCIL ACTION REQUESTED
Council is requested to conduct a public hearing, and to consider the enclosed resolution to order the project
and adopt the proposed assessments for City Project 2023-1, the 2023 Neighborhood Infrastructure
Improvements. This is a City-initiated project, therefore by MN Statute, a supermajority (six of seven votes) of
the Council must vote in favor of the resolution in order to approve it. The scope and features for this project
were approved by the City Council at the regular meeting on March 6th and the City will be receiving bids for
the project on April 7th.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION
The 2023 Neighborhood Infrastructure Improvements contain street and utility improvements to six City streets
ranging in scope of work from reclamation of streets to full street and utility reconstruction. The full scope of the
project was presented to City Council on March 6th, 2023 (please refer to the attached Project Map). The
improvements in all areas will also include storm sewer system extensions, repairs, and replacements to
facilitate drainage of the new streets. A paved trail will be extended along Southview Drive between Pleasant
Drive and Westview Drive. A new multi-use paved trail will also be added along the West side of Pleasant Drive
from 15th Street to the Vermillion River Bridge.
It is important to note that the project was not ordered at the March 6th meeting, as the Council did not have
the ability to provide a supermajority vote due to absences that evening. Therefore, the attached resolution has
been updated to include ordering the project for compliance with MN Statute.
ASSESSMENT POLICY & FINAL PROPOSED RATES
All properties in the project area that are abutting an improved street (with the exception of lots that only have
rear lot frontage) are proposed to be assessed in accordance with the City Ordinance Policy. This policy states
that the assessment rates are based on the estimated special benefit to the assessed properties accruing from
the constructed improvements. A certified property appraiser was hired to determine the estimated special
benefit range for each property type within the proposed project area based on the type of improvement taking
place. The low end of this range was taken and then further reduced to 90% to establish assessment rates for
each lot.
A large percentage of lots within the 2023 Neighborhood Infrastructure Improvements area are irregularly
shaped, or in other words, they are not rectangular in nature. As a result of this, within the guidelines set forth
by the City Ordinance the assessments levied for this project are on a per-lot basis to ensure equity across all
properties as opposed to a front-footage method.
It is important to note that the special benefits valuation is based on the street and storm sewer improvements
only. The City does not levy special assessments associated with utility improvements, since the cost of those
improvements are funded from sources other than special assessments.
IX-01(a,b)
The standard assessment for single family homes in reconstruction areas is $7,650 and for reclaim areas the
standard assessment is $6,750.

attached Preliminary Assessment Rolls dated January 13, 2023.
