CLASS V - Unimproved Streets and A1 �eys
Descriptlo�:
Class V service will be performed on unimproved streets and alleys. By
unimp�oved we mean those streets and aileys that have not been developed
for one reason or another. They are platted City �ight-of-ways, however,
the abutting residents have never petitioned for their improvement nor
have there been any assessments levied. The�e are approximately 80 miles
of unimproved streets and 100 miles of unimproved alleys in the City.
� Because they are City �ight-of-ways, the City has the responsibiiity to
perfot-m minimal repai�s and maintenance work an them to reduce any haza�ds
o� potential hazards.
Proposed 1973 level of Se�vices:
The maintenance and �epair of these streets and alleys will consist of
patching, minor blading, placing of crushed rock and othe� stabtlized
matecial in order to ma ke them passable and reduce haza�ds.
Proposed Assessment:
Under Class V service we p�opose the foilowing two assessments. Since
the�e wiii be �o sweeping and fiushing invoived, the assessment is based
only on the patching and repair w��k that may be needed. For streets we
p�opose an assessment of one-half of the standard �esldential street
assessment proposed under Ciass ill , or $.10 per f�ont foot. Unde� alleys
we again propose an assessment of one-half of the alley assessment proposed
under Class IV,• or $.OS per front foot. These assessments will pravide the
bare minimum funds necessary to take care of these unimproved streets and
alleys.
