The costs to do these improvements would amount to $15,578.16. This is about $6,195.91 more than the 251% costs the County would pay on the petition paving assessment as set out above. A public hearing would be held for closing -off portions of 12th Avenue and work could be scheduled and performed by the Road and Bridge Division. This would be a benefit to the County by eliminating an unpaved road in the grader route. Direct staff to make the improvements along the 12th Avenue corridor and hold a public hearing to close -off portions of 12th Avenue as shown on the attached map. County will pay for the additional $6,195.91 above the normal 25% funding that the county pays on petition paving projects. The County would continue to grade 12th Avenue on a regular grader route, and not do any paving at this time. Staff recommends Alternative No. l and funding would come from the Road and Bridge Fund # 111- 214. Commissioner Adams asked why we are not assessing the property owners for some of the cost. Ms. Gentile explained that the property owners preferred to leave the road unpaved if they were going to be assessed any amount for paving it. Public Works Director Jim Davis commented that not all of the property owners have driveways onto 12th Avenue. Since this was a relatively small sum of money and paving will benefit the County because the road can be taken off the grader route, staff recommends that the County go ahead and pay the cost of paving. Commissioner Adams agreed that the amount involved is probably not worth the cost of advertising and holding public hearings to assess the property owners. ON MOTION by Commissioner Adams, SECONDED by Commissioner Macht, the Board unanimously approved Alternative No. 1, authorizing staff to make improvements along the 12th Avenue corridor at a total cost of $15,578.16, and hold a public hearing to close off portions of 12th Avenue, as set forth in staff's recommendation. 57 BOOK 09 Pa;F 522 L MAY 111993 �
