Harden, City._Manager Brian Shutt, Assistant City Attorney SUBJECT: Pineapple Grove Way Special Assessment District- Resolution of Necessity Project No. 99-039 The attached resolution, if approved, will authorize City staff to prepare the assessment roll, mail notices, and advertise a public hearing for the Pineapple Grove Way Special Assessment District. The total projected cost of the street beautification is $2,049,850.00. The property owners will contribute one third of the total cost, which is $683,283.33 through the special assessment process. The City and the CRA shall each contribute one third of the cost. The proposed improvements for the area of Pineapple Grove Way from the first alley north of Atlantic Avenue to N.E. 4th Street include, paver brick sidewalks, paver brick intersections, traffic calming measures, relocating some overhead utilities underground, and adding landscaping, irrigation and street lights. The property owners abutting the improvements along Pineapple Grove Way and the intersecting streets shall be specially assessed on a foot frontage basis, that is, the property owner will be assessed on the number of lineal feet their property abuts the improved area of Pineapple Grove Way and the intersecting streets. The property owners may pay the assessment in one lump sum or they may make payments over a period of time. The City has usually allowed the property owners to pay the special assessment over a 10 year period at 8% interest. Pineapple Grove has requested that the City allow the property owners 20 years in which to pay the assessment. They have made this request because the properties are being assessed on a lineal foot basis and that there are some rather large properties in the proposed special assessment district. In response to this request I have left the number of years allowed to pay back the special assessment blank on the resolution so that the City Commission may determine this amount. The City Commission must approve the resolution of necessity in order for City staff to prepare the assessment roll. The City will publish the resolution for two consecutive weeks after adoption by the Commission. If you have any questions concerning this matter, please call.
