WHEREAS, the City Council has previously adopted special assessment policies
to guide its deliberations in preparing special assessment rolls, and
WHEREAS, it has been determined that single-family residential properties
located in areas zoned for commercial and/or industrial uses may be adversely
affected by the application of the present special assessment policies,
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT HEREBY RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF

of the City's assessment policy would cause the levying of assessments to
such properties based upon the zoned land use, the following special assessment
policies will be considered:

industrial uses shall be assessed according to residential assess[;;-nt
criteria, provided that the property is occupied and homesteaded by
the owner of said property, and continues to be occupied and homesteaded
by the owner during the period any assessments are deferred.
2. The difference between the signle-family residential assessment rate
and the rate normally assessed for such properties in areas zoned
for commercial and industrial uses shall be deferred for a period not
to exceed five (5) years, provided, however, that if the property
is sold, not used by the owner for his own homestead, or further sub-
divided during that five-year period, the deferred assessments Oall
become due and payable in full.
3. Deferred assessments shall accrue interest from the date of the confirma-
tion of the original assessment roll affecting the property in question.
4. The City Manager shall maintain suitable records indicating the nature
and extent of such deferred assessments with respect to each individual
