Griffin, P.E., Assistant City Manager/City Engineer Consideration and approval of a resolution declaring the need for water line improvements on the south side of Beltline Road; directing that plans, specifications and cost estimates be prepared; and declaring the intent to levy an assessment against the abutting property owners and authorizing the Mayor to sign. Date: October 3, 1994 As previously directed by the City Council, the Engineering Department has been working with the City Attorney' s office to determine the proper approach for assessing the abutting property owner for improvements associated with the 12" and 8" water line along the south side of East Beltline Road. The Engineering Department has also been working on the in-house design of those improvements. According to our attorney, the first step in this process is for the Council to pass the aforementioned resolution to determine the need for the improvements, intent to assess the abutting properties and direct that the final plans be prepared. At the October 251h, 1994 City Council meeting, an estimated cost of the improvements will be presented and the Council will again indicate its intent to levy assessments. Based on previous Council action, the Engineering Deparmaent has been working on the plans to arrive at a cost estimate. Therefore, operating under the assumption that this resolution will be passed at the October 11, 1994 City Council meeting, the Engineering Department is completing the construction plans and putting the project out for advertisement for bids beginning October 7th, 1994. I have discussed this with the City Attorney and have been assured that we are proceeding properly with this project. If the City stays on it's current timeline, it is anticipated that the bid for the construction of the waterline will be awarded at the November 13th, 1994 City Council meeting, with construction to start sometime after Thanksgiving, 1994. Staff recommends approval of the resolution and will be available to answer any questions at the Council meeting.
