JJU L 14'667 BOU 8 rvUE 774 Donald Clett, 13th PI. SW, wished to have their street paved also, but wondered how long it would take. Director Davis stated that road is included, and anticipated the paving would probably be within 18 months. They can't schedule it completely; they have done the surveying work, but the engineering work has not been completed. Chairman Scurlock asked if there was the possibility that we could consider contracting this work out because he believed the people want this expedited as fast as possible. Director Davis agreed contracting out was a possibility. A resident of the area had a question about how much each would have to pay, and the Chairman and Commissioner Bird explained just how the price is worked out in the final assessment. Arthur Adkins, 1630 3rd Ave. SW, wished it confirmed that 3rd Avenue is to be paved in front of his house, and Civil Engineer Michelle Terry confirmed that it would be. Cathleen Brinson, 1666 3rd Ave. SW, expressed concern about the bill having to be settled in two payments, and Chairman Scurlock noted that in the past we have been allowing a 3 year payment schedule, and he hoped the Motion to be made will include allowing a 5 year payment schedule. The interest is 12%. Mrs. Brinson wished to know what roads they might start out with, and Public Works Director Davis advised that they anticipate working from east to west. He would like to do the whole subdivision at once, and they plan on putting possibly two crews in there, but it will take some time. It is the biggest subdivision we have done this way - and it will probably take a year to complete. They will try to segment it. Chairman Scurlock assured those present that we will try to get this paved as soon as possible. It was determined that no one further wished to be heard, and the Chairman declared the public hearing closed. 22
