Re: Eagle Ridge 1997 assessment
Introduction
The City Council adopted assessment to the Eagle Ridge subdivision in the fall of 1997. The
cost per lot adopted was $7,434.80. It has come to my atYention that one lot in the
subdivision was incorrectly assessed.
Backtround
The Eagle Ridge subdivision consists of 22 lots. Only 21 of these lots were to be assessed
accordingto the subdivision agreement. The original assessment is to be collected with
t�es payable 1998, 1999 and 2000.
I coiitacted WashingCOn Counry Auditor Treasurer and ascertained that the first half of the
1998 payable assessments were paid by the property owner and that the second half
assessments have not yet been paid. The due date for the second half is October I5, 1998. I
then contacted the property owner and explained the enor.
In order to correct this error, City Council will need to adopt a resolution reapportioning the
assessment to the lots as indicated on the reso(uYion. I have also spoken to the oroperty
developer, who agrees with this arrangement. We will reimburse the property owner for the
first half assessments, issue a check to Washington County for the second half of the
assessment, delete the remaining assessment balance on this parcel and re-spread the
original amount to as-yet-undeveloped lots.
The lots assessed for Eagle Ridge on September 16, 1998 were correct.
Requested Action
Adopt resolution reapportioning assessments to the lots indicated on the attached resolution.
RESOLUTION NO. 98-
