SEPBOOKFAG E ,-, J signed in 1983 still want the road paved, and she requested that the Board approve the petition. Chairman Lyons explained that this does not hinge on whether they had a verified petition or not; the Commission is trying to work out costs and route. In further discussion, it was pointed out that the advantage of petition paving is that the County paves the road at County cost. Commissioner Scurlock believed some did indicate they would be willing to pay something towards the paving as they apparently felt there would be some benefit, and Commissioner Wodtke noted that certainly if someone is going to build a house there facing 11th Lane, it would be a definite benefit to them. Attorney Vitunac again emphasized that the assessment can be figured on the specific benefit to each particular lot, vacant or otherwise; the charge, however, cannot exceed the special benefit. MOTION WAS MADE by Commissioner Scurlock, SECONDED by Commissioner Bowman, to deny the petition paving request for 11th Lane S.W. Commissioner Scurlock pointed out that this would allow the developer the ability to come back with another plan which would go through staff and back to this Commission, and then we could address with some consistency what we are going to do in these situations. He stated that he was not opposed to working something out, and he did not believe there is any waiting period involved. In further discussion, it was noted that at this point there is certainly a cloud on the petition as to how many actually signed up. THE CHAIRMAN CALLED FOR THE QUESTION. It was voted on and carried unanimously (4-0) 55 � � r
