,MAY 24 1994 <br />Bm 92 F,AGF 49 9 <br />Michael Ray, 545 63rd Avenue, emphasized that the original <br />petition is almost 4 years old now, and a lot of the people who <br />wanted the paving are now opposed to the project. He didn't <br />understand how the County arrived at 62% when he calculated it as <br />54%. With the water and impact fees being assessed to them, this <br />paving assessment will cause an undue hardship on him and others. <br />Robert Williams, 426 63rd Avenue, stated he is one of the <br />owners who have changed their position on the paving project and <br />who now are against it. He is opposed to the paving because the <br />County has added drainage improvements to the project and because <br />this street will be turned into a speedway creating a safety <br />problem for the children. Mr. Williams appreciated getting water <br />lines, but did not want any more improvements to his property <br />because his taxes are too high now. <br />Elizabeth Mason, owner of a vacant lot on 63rd Avenue, didn't <br />really oppose the paving, but felt the impact of the water <br />assessment is enough for now. <br />Mike Harrison explained that he lives on the corner of 4th <br />Street and 66th Avenue and is concerned about the paving because of <br />the safety of children playing in the street. He would prefer that <br />the street not be paved, and pointed out that his figures show that <br />the approval is only 27 percent: <br />PAVING AND DRAINAGE IMPROVEMENTS <br />63RD AVENUE, PINE TREE PARK <br />SYNOPSIS OF ACCOMPANYING PETITION AND PETITION REVISION <br />BASIC DATA <br />TOTAL NUMBER OF PROPERTY OWNERS ----------- 41 <br />TOTAL FRONT FOOTAGE ON 63RD AVE. ---------- 4,270 FT. <br />ORIGINAL PETITION <br />NUMBER OF OWNERS FOR PROJECT -------------- 22 OR 54% <br />TOTAL FRONT FOOTAGE FOR PROJECT ----------- 2,250 FT.
