ATTACHMENTS: Resolution, Assessment Roll APPROVED BY: LJM
RECOMMENDED ACTION: Motion to

2. Adopt a Resolution Approving the Assessment Roll for the Autumn Path Extension
Project, City Project 2019-07.
BACKGROUND
The Autumn Path Improvement Project, City Project 2019-07, would consist of construction of a
42-foot wide asphalt collector roadway with curb and gutter. Pedestrian facilities will include a trail
on the east side and sidewalk on the west side of the road. Storm pipe will be constructed to ponds
within the Bella Vista development. Raw and potable watermain will be installed along the road
along with some sanitary sewer.
On December 3, 2019, several of the property owners of the property proposed for assessment
attended the improvement hearing with concerns. Staff has sent a Petition and Waiver to the
property owners to execute if they would like to defer the assessed amount for 10 years, or until the
subdivision of the property, whichever occurs first.
On May 19, 2020, the Rosemount City Council awarded the contractor for this project.
The City received a letter dated June 12, 2020 on behalf of the owners of the property proposed for
assessment, which disputes the special benefit to their property. To obtain more information to
present to the concerned property owners, the Council continued the assessment hearing to the
September 15, 2020 meeting.
The City’s consulting appraiser has completed an unrestricted special benefit analysis, which
confirms the original appraisal amount. This report is available upon request for review at the
Rosemount Engineering Department.
