CLASS V AND VI - UNIMPROVED STREETS AND ALLEYS

By unimproved, we arean 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.
Proposed 1985 Level of Service:
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.
Proposed Assessment:
The proposed assessment rate on unimproved streets is $ .40 per assessable
foot for commercial property and $ .26 per assessable foot for residential
property. The proposed assessment rate on unimproved alleys is .20 per
assessable foot for commercial property and $ . 14 per assessable foot for
residential property.
