� <br /> • � 3PECIAL MEETING OF THE ORONO COUNCIL, SEPTEMBER 4, 1975 Page 3 <br /> . Harry Coult, among the audience had questions about HARRY COULT <br /> cost of laying sewer. It was explained that just JAMES KINNEY <br /> � laying the pipe is not the only cost. There are <br /> engineering cost and administrative costs a�.c�ecl. <br /> � At this time, the discussion turned to a letter <br /> • from James Kinney, 996 North Arm Drive, who <br /> questioned why they should pay for lift stations <br /> + on adjacent low lots where theirs was a high lot. <br /> Massengale stated you cannot draw an assessment <br /> � to such a fine line that the cost of sewering each <br /> lot or certain areas could be individually computed. <br /> � Economies of sca_le were effected by having one <br /> large project. �7e can't logically spell out figures <br /> ` for each area and say that was the actual cost <br /> • of sewering that area.and to do so would result <br /> in more assessments for everyone. <br /> � James Wa.rner, 80 Hackberry Hill, felt that fair- JAMES WARNER <br /> � minded people should not object to the placing of 80 Hackberry Hill <br /> 40% instead of 6% on the general levy. Butler <br /> ! countered by saying the policy in the past had <br /> been the same as now, and that since about 80-90% <br /> � of the sewer area was already sewered under past <br /> � policy it would almost be double taxation to ask <br /> the people sewered under that policy when they <br /> � paid 100% of the cost to help pay for this project. <br /> � There were a number of letters questioning the DAVID RIDLER <br /> � footage assessed to their properties. Council- 960 Tonkawa <br /> members and Engineer Long studied the problem of <br /> David Ridler, 960 Tonkawa. All agreed that 150' <br /> � would be a more equitable frontage assessment <br /> . than the 200 ' , using past policy as a guideline. <br /> . Next, the petition of Kenneth Vogel, 875 Wind- KErdPJETH VOGEL <br /> jammer Lane, to reduce his assessable footage was 875 Windjammer Lane <br /> + studied. The Engineer stated he arrived at the <br /> footage on this corner lot by taking 500 of the <br /> A total footage on the two street sides. Since <br /> the policy has been to assess the short side on <br /> � these lots, the Engineer felt the assessable <br /> • footage should be reduced from 210 ' to 160 ' . <br /> � Councilmembers felt the assessable footage of DOUGLAS KELM <br /> Douglas Kelm, 4070 Dahl Road, was equitable 4070 Dahl Road <br /> � since the policy of using average dimensions on <br /> irregular shaped lots was followed. <br /> • <br /> Richard Hollander, 680 North Arm Drive, sent a RICHARD HOLLANDER <br /> � letter stating he felt since he only had 0.63 680 North Arm Drive <br /> � of the one acre requirement of the zone he was <br /> in, he should only be assessed 630 of the unit <br /> � requirement. Again, the policy has been to <br /> � assess every resident a unit regardless of lot <br /> size as long as the lot is buildable or can be <br /> joined with an adjacent lot to create a bu�ldable <br /> � lot. <br /> � <br /> i <br />
