Director Davis recalled that he attended the meeting in <br />Fellsmere on August 25th and recounted that he had carried a large <br />file with him to the hearing with the plans and enough detail that <br />anyone could understand the_ construction of the _roadway. <br />Therefore, the plans were available on August 25th at City Hall. <br />Prior to that meeting, in his office, he had asked Mr. Barkett if <br />there was anything that he needed for the project and Mr. Barkett <br />never mentioned the plans to him. They were available and he was <br />free to look at them at any time and he knew that. <br />Commissioner Eggert asserted that she had not heard any <br />specific requests presented tonight for changes in the assessments. <br />MOTION WAS MADE by Commissioner Eggert, <br />SECONDED BY Commissioner Tippin, to adopt <br />Resolution 95-103 confirming the assessment <br />roll for certain paving and drainage <br />improvements to 130th Avenue (Willow Street) <br />with the understanding that there is a benefit <br />equal to, or greater than the cost per acre <br />charge; and that if the City of Fellsmere does <br />not assess an amount equal to what they would <br />have assessed tonight under this, it will be <br />revisited by us. (Clerk's note: See <br />amendment below.) _ <br />Under discussion, Commissioner Tippin observed that no matter <br />what was decided, it was not completely fair and that the <br />Commission was not infallible. <br />Commissioner Bird recalled that he had, at a previous meeting, <br />talked about three alternatives. He had checked with Director <br />Davis .on one of the alternatives and learned that this road was not <br />on the Comprehensive Plan and probably would never be able to be <br />funded that way, because of its rural nature. While the assessment <br />program is not perfect, it is the best alternative. <br />Commissioner Adams agreed it was not perfect. She wanted to <br />try to help the people with larger assessments and asked if the <br />Board would consider that any assessment over $2,000 be able to be <br />paid out over four years instead of two. <br />After consulting with staff, it was understood that it would <br />be possible to do it and that it should be included in the motion. <br />17 door 96 PPF 59 <br />September 12, 1995 <br />
