Harbert, Chairman Commissioner W. H. Webster, Pro-Tem - Excused Commissioner George E. Baxter Commissioner Dale K. Hall Commissioner Barbara J. Kirkmeyer Also present: Acting Clerk to the Board, Shelly Miller Assistant County Attorney, Lee Morrison Director of Engineering Department, Drew Scheltinga The following business was transacted: I hereby certify that pursuant to a notice dated April 7, 1993, and duly published April 15, 1993, in the Windsor Beacon, a public hearing was conducted to consider the creation of a local improvement district within Johnson Subdivision. Lee Morrison, Assistant County Attorney, made this a matter of record. Mr. Morrison noted the City's ordinance regarding the two lots within the City of Greeley were consented to on first reading by the City Council last evening. Drew Scheltinga, Director of Engineering Department, said the concerned lots are 30 and 31. Mr. Morrison clarified the City assured the County Commissioner's jurisdiction to include the two lots in the District. Mr. Scheltinga said the petition included a cost estimate of $49,500, which included shaping, grading, paving and shouldering. Mr. Scheltinga said the lanes will consist of 2" of asphalt to be 24' wide, with 4' shoulders to consist of 2" of aggregate. All lots are to be assessed equally at $1,237.50 per lot. Mr. Scheltinga said the assessment may be paid in full with no interest of over ten years at 8% simple interest. Thirty-one of the forty lots, or 78 percent, petitioned in favor of the improvement district. Mr. Scheltinga explained the bids were opened yesterday with the low bidder being Western Mobile/Northern, Inc. , at $55, 997. He said this amount is an increase of $6,497, or 13 percent, over the estimate, of which $3,300 to $3,400 was for aggregate base course. Mr. Scheltinga said two other unexpected items were utilities consisting of two man holes and four meter boxes; therefore, pavement will have to be adjusted to grade at a cost of $1,365. He said the drainage problems have been discussed with the residents, and it was decided the district will not improve or correct the problems. The primary driveway approaches will be paved. The cost included in the estimate to pave the approaches was $43 per ton; however, the bid was $30 per ton which is a savings. Mr. Scheltinga said installation of a concrete gutter pan was also included in the bid. In response to questions of the Board, Mr. Scheltinga explained the clerical error in the bid presented earlier today. He clarified the Engineer's estimate was $49, 411, and Best Way's bid was $58, 163.94. He reiterated that Western Mobile/Northern was the low bidder at $55,997. Mr. Scheltinga said there will be a $162 per lot increase over the estimate, with the new estimated assessment per lot being $1,399.93. He explained the breakdown of costs over a ten-year period. In response to questions of the Board, Mr. Scheltinga said the cost of aggregate base course doubled over last year, and the County may be able to furnish it at less cost. That matter would need to be negotiated with the contractor. Mr. Morrison suggested the Board act with the higher bid then, if the costs go down, make the necessary adjustments at the assessment hearing. Mr. Scheltinga reiterated all costs are estimated, and the final cost will be established at the assessment hearing. David Trevarton and Pearl Coates, property owners, both spoke in favor of the district. Commissioner Hall moved to create said local improvement district, and Commissioner Baxter seconded the motion. Mr. Morrison suggested the Board consider accepting the draft resolution and amending it to correspond to the Engineer's revised estimate. Commissioners Hall and Baxter agreed to amend the motion to include said changes. The motion carried unanimously. 931677 Thobi 3 '4' : HEARING CERTIFICATION - JOHNSON SUBDIVISION LOCAL IMPROVEMENT DISTRICT PAGE 2 This Certification was approved on the 24th day of May, 1993.
