The discussion on the attached memo explains the reasoning for
modifying the pending assessments for this project.
Also, attached is a letter, v�hich was received Friday, September 3 ,
1993 , from Mary Hynes, 3405 145th Street West, regarding �he proposed
assessments.
Staff recommends that Council come to a conelusion regarding a flat
rate or amount for assessments for multiple and single family homes.
This should include streets and utilities. zt appears as though the
appraised benefits for commercial property is less than what is
calculated per the policy thereby supporting the policy calculations
f or that Cype of zoning.

FROM: BUD OSMUNDSON, CITY ENGlNEER
DATE: SEPTEMBER 2, 1993
RE: DISCUSSION OF ASSESSMENTS
145TH STREET RECONSTRUCTION
CITY PROJECT #235
The public hearing was held for this project on April 20, 1993 and the project was ordered with .
the pending assessments calculafied per the Assessment Policy. However, the Council asked that
we have another informational or discussion meeting when appraisals for benefits were received
by the City for properties along Chili Avenue. We now have the appraisals which were provided
to you with a memo last week. A letter was sent to the property owners of assessable property
for this project and a copy of both of these letters are attached.
The benefits per the appraisals were somewhat different than aur Asses�ment Policy calculations.
For the sing4e family residential homes the street only appraised benefits are SZ,000 compared to
the Assessment Policy calculations of $3,228. The commercial and multiple family home appraised
benefits are 58,�00 for each apartment building and $10,000 for the Tom Thumb Center compare�!
to the Assessment Policy calculations of 513,358 for the two apartment buildings and 56,679 fur
the Tom Thumb Center. The street benefits for the singFe family hames can be modified samewhat
because the appraised benefits incfuded new curb & gutter for all the properties when in fact tMe �
improvement project anly includes the inst-aiiation of curb & gutter on the east side of Chili on the
- new portion through the Carroll Farm. Therefore, the appraised benefits couid be modified by
subtracting out the cost of fihe concrete curb & gutter. The appraised benefits would then be
approximately 51 ,614 for the R-1 homes where curb & gutter was nat replaced.
I`ve spoken to many ather cities such as South St. Paul, Shakopee and Eagan and their street
assessment per single family home is approximately $2,000 per lot. Shakopee assesses 25% of
the street costs while Eagan assesses a flat 52,000 per lot, while South St. Paul assesses 531 .00
per foot this year. All of these average out to approximately $2,000 per fot.
You wiil notice that the house at 3405 145th Street West (Hynes} would also be assessed for
watermain lateral, water service, sanitary sewer lateral and sanitary sewer service per the
Assessment Policy. However, the most recent appraisai does not give any benefit for those
facilities. Again these three other cities have variaus methods of assessing or not assessing these
utilities. South St. Paul and Eagan do not assess for replacement costs whatsoever for sewer and
water laterals. Shakopee does not assess for the lateral but daes assess for the service to the
property line. The storm drain is not assessed in Eagan or Shakopee, but the catch basins and
leads are considered part of the street costs in South St. Paul which is simiiar to our Assessment
Policy.
The assessments for water, sanitary sewer and services is a whole other question. If none of the
cost is assessed a preeedent is set #or future reconstruction projects which will mean that more
of the costs of reconstruction projects has to come from the General Revenue Taxes or Capitat
Improvement Program funding. Staff feels that a portion af the eost af the sewer and water
replacements should be assessed. This amount may be only the amount of the service or just a
flat rate.
Staff recommends that we revise the Assessment Roll to rnatch the revisions as discussed in the
previous memo to the Council. The "poGcy calcuiated" assessments and "appraisal benefit"
assessments for the single family homes and the commercial and multiple famity homes'are listed
on the attached Assessment Roll.

RE: APPRAISALS FOR BENEFfTS FROM IMPRCIVEMENTS

145TH STREET/CHILI AVENUElCHIPPENDALE AVENUf
RECONSTRUCTION
Attached are four (4) appraisal bookiets, completed by Racine Appraisers, for the
referenced project. One 'rncludes four separate appraisals for benefits from
improvements to single family residential homes along Chili Avenue. The remaining
three are the Tom Thumb Commercial Center at 14537 Dodd Boulsvard; the
� Rosemount Court Apartments at 3710 145th Street; and, the Rosemount Green
Apartments at 3810 145th Street.
The following table summarizes the appraised and Assessment Policy benefits for
street improvements for the single family homes:
_ STREET ONLY :

3400 144th Street West 5 2,000 S 3,228
*3405 145th Street West $4,000 53,228
� This property will also be assessed for watermain lateral, water service, sanitary
sewer latera! and sanitary sewer service.
You will note in the appraisal that the appraised benefits include new concrete curb
and gutter. However, the concrete curb and gutter is nat being replaced on the east
side of Chili Avenue north of 144th Street, but is south of 144th Street. The adjusted
benefit to `the homes appraised by subtracting out the projectprice (56.44 x 60' _
5386) of concrete curb & gutter to the appropriate properties is as follows:
Address � Revised Street Appraised Senefits
3400 143rd Street West S� 614
3405 144th Street West �1 614
3400 144th Street West 52 000
3405 145th Street West $4,000
These revised benefit amounts would be consistent with the concepts in the City's
Assessment Policy in that payment is made for individual improvementslreplacements
such as concrete curb & gutter, bituminous streets, etc.
Appraisal Mema
City Project #235
Staff recammends that these revised appraised benefit amounts be adopted as revised
preliminary assessments for the properties which meet the Assessment Policy criteria
of accessing the improved street.
Benefits per the appraisals and the Assessment Policy for the three (3?
commercial/multiple residentia( are summarized in the following table: -

Staff recommends that the City assess the �awest of either the appraisal or the
Assessment Pa(icy caiculation. The reasons are as folfows:
1 . If the City has to go to court on any appeal, the Court will probably lean toward
the appraisal figure if and when it is brought out as evidence.
2. The lower figure on the Tom Thumb site should probably be used because this
property will be assessed again for future Dodd Boulevard improvemsnts, and
attorney fees defending the appraised benefit amount could surpass the 53,300
difference in no time.
The entire proposed revised assessment ro{I will be sent out with the packet for the
September 7, 1993 meeting. Please bring these appraisals to that meeting as copies
will not be completed with the packet.

Ssptember 1, 1993
To Mayor McMenomy and the City Council:
I am sorry that my health does not permit me to attend the council
meeting, and mY son, who usually represents me, is away on assignment
for his company.
I would like to respectfully submit my rejection of the assess-�nent
on my property which was disclosed to me in a letter received on August
28th.
I have lived in Rosemount for thirty-two years, and during that
ti.me, I was assessed for wi.dening and re-enforcing Chili Avenue so that
school traffic would be better served. I willingly paid the assessment,
although I could iil-afford it being a c�idow with two children to
educate. Just a few years ago the last installment was paid.
This new assessment, I can not accept. �
If the ald Chili needed to be reconstructed, I would again try to
pay a reasonable assessment. But the city is not reconstructing my end
of Chiii Ave. They are abandoning it and are re-locating to crhat
appears to be an extension of Chippendale Ave.
This new street does not abut or enhance my property in any way.
On the contrary, I will have a greatly extended driveway which will have
to be abandoned much of the winter because I could not afford the cost
of snow-plowing.
I can ne�.ther see this street from t�y house nor can my home he
seen from the street.
The abandoned Chili Ave. , which will remain city property, can be
a nuisance to adjoining praperty owners. I am sure the city will see � . '
that it is nicely sc�dded, but what happens later cancerns :me.
I would like to say that the city engin�er has been exceedingly
kind and helpful, and we commend him for his devotion to his duty.
I am sure our Honorable Mayor and Council will understand why I
cannot, in good conscience, accept this assesstnent.
Respectfully submitted,
