The Committee discussed how the City could justify the use of assessments for this project when no other pavement management projects have utilized special assessments in recent years. Discussions turned to whether assessments should be applied to only those properties that would benefit from the extension of Ferret Street, including utilities extensions. After much discussion, staff agreed to develop potential preliminary assessment options for discussion with the City Council during their February 28th work session. At the time this case was published, potential special assessment options were not yet available. Staff plans to present potential assessment options during the work session.
