Title
Adopt Resolution #20-043 Postponing Public Hearing for Puma Street Improvements, Improvement Project #20-04
Purpose/Background:
Purpose:
The purpose of this case is to adopt Resolution #20-043 postponing the Public Hearing for Puma Street Improvements, Improvement Project #20-04, until March 24, 2020.
Background:
On February 24, 2020, a Public Hearing was called for the Puma Street Improvements project, Improvement Project #20-04. As required by Minnesota Statute Chapter 429, a notice of Public Hearing was published twice in the City's official newspaper, the Anoka Union Herald, on Friday, February 28th, and Friday, March 6th. Minnesota Statute Chapter 429 also requires that notices be mailed to all benefiting property owners proposed to be specially assessed for the improvements, which for this project includes two property owners, Captsone Homes and AKM Farms/Paxmar. Unfortunately, notice was not mailed to the property owners so the Public Hearing must be postponed until March 24, 2020 to allow notices for the postponed public hearing to be published in the City's offical newparer, and to be mailed to all benefiting property owners. This will ensure that the Chapter 429 process is being strictly followed, and that benefiting property owners will have no grounds for objecting to the process followed in assessing them for a portion of the the improvements.
