CLASS V AND VI - UNIMPROVED STREETS AND ALLEYS
Descrintion:
Class V and VI service will be performed on unimproved streets and alleys. By
unimproved, we mean those streets and alleys that have not been developed for one
reason or another. They are platted City rights-of-way; however, the abutting residents
have never petitioned for their improvement nor have there been any assessments
levied. Because they are City rights-of-way, the City has the responsibility to perform
minimal repairs and maintenance work to reduce hazards.
Pro�osed 1988 Level of Services:
The maintenance and repair of these streets and alleys will consist of patching, minor
blading, placing of crushed rock and other stabilized material in order to make them
passable and reduce hazards.
Proqosed Assessment:
The proposed assessment rate on unimproved streets is�per assessable foot for
commercial property and �,.41 per assessable foot for residential property. The
proposed assessment rate on unimproved alleys is� per assessable foot for
commercial property and � per assessable foot for residential property.
