BOOK 6 7 FATE MAR 2 4 1987 Chairman Scurlock opened the Public Hearing and asked if anyone wished to be heard in regard to any of the five petition paving assessments. William Kaiser, resident of the Aerodrome and also developer of the new development going in south of 5th St., SW. (Aerodrome, Phase II), explained that they originally planned to offer Aerodrome access to 82nd Avenue through the new subdivision, but staff did not want them to do that because they did not want any more pavement cuts in 5th St., SW, and they agreed to go with the 5th St.,SW petition paving. However, they assessed the new subdivision for only 7 lots and they would like to be assessed for 15 lots because that is how many lots they are going to put in there. They would like those 15 lots to be taken off the Aerodrome's portion. The only objection he would have is to the possible waiver of the assessment of the adjacent grove owner's 7 lots which would be passed on to them. He requested that if this waiver is approved, that the County pick up those 7 lots and not pass the assessments on to them. They feel this is a fair request since they offered an alternative paved road. Chairman Scurlock didn't know why the original offer didn't get to the Board because he felt it seemed reasonable. He understood that the present request is to assess the developer for 15 lots instead of 7, which would not reduce the overall assessment roll, just reduce the number of lots to be assessed in Aerodrome. Public Works -Director Jim Davis recalled that two weeks ago when the Board considered the grove owner's request to donate a right-of-way in lieu of being assessed for his share of the paving, the Board set the policy that the County would buy the right-of-way and assess him for the paving. Since 5th Street SW is needed to serve other properties, staff is recommending that it be paved. 73 M
