Director Moore answered that Lhe amour' 11 traffic warrants siq- nals. This will •not affect the Ins apt-stlon at C.R. 6 and Dunkirk Ldiit. Ile Y4%0 that he estim.etor: ,assessments were pre- pared based on the City's asnensment policy. This is a very costly project and a lot of the cost ice• because of the soil con- ditions which will require correction. The assessed cost propo- sed is based on land use and the type of lmiirovement being con- structed. Just under $900,000 will be assessed; the City will pay the remaining costs with Tax Increment Financing. If the Council decides to approve the project, the cost will be refined before the assessment hey.- i ng and the residents' concerns will be addressed. Mayor Schneider explained the deferred assessment policy for residential properties. The Mayor opened the public hParing at 7:55 p.m. Roy O'Donnell, owner of Sun Valley the configuration 0 10th Ave. and thL! mobile park's assessments. Mobile Home Park, asked about the possibility of deferring Ulre:ctur Moore answered that right-of-way acquisition for 10th Ave. Is necessary and will have to be negotiated; the alignment Is ds shown in the Thoroughfare Guide Plan. Discussion followed on the location of the traffic siqnals, egress from the mobile home park, and use of the land and Its conformance to the Guide Plan. Robert Miller, owner of Sun Palley Mobile Home Park, stated this would cause hardship to them and will mean having to move a num- ber of families. Nell Alden, 233 ©roadway, Wayzata, representinq the Knights of Columbus, pointed out the economic hardship beinq put on their property. If this becomes a reality, they will have to Increase their rents as they cannot absorb the assessments. The Improve- ments are for the benefit of Groves Office Park only. He asked the Council to look at. the basis of this assessment, Its hard- ship, and to consider this when they vote on the project. Sue Wyatt, 10712 10th Ave., stated the road will be within 15 ft, of her dour and she doesn't feel this is fair to sl.ngle family dwellings or safe for Iter children. Mayor Schneider noted receipt of a letter from Gene Retac in opposition to the project. James Ridinger, 10800 S. Shore Drive, suhm!tted a letter In opposition to the project. Special Council Meeting January 129 1987 Page 14 Director Moore showed the Thoroughfare Guide Plan and explained that it was anticipated by the plan that this road would be naeded as the area developed and it is necessary to handle the traffic. There is a lot of land yet to be developed along 10th Ave. which will require the upgrading of existing streets as Nell. Mr. Rita -singer a: -:rkd that. osts and henefIt go hand In hand when assessments are con:.ldered. Robert Cha an, 10877 i. Shore Drive, asked why a road couldn't run northisouth but east of the mobile home park d((d connect with the service road. Director Moore answered that the level of traffic on the service road requires that eventually the. Intersection with S. Shore Drive north of Highway 55 be closed and relocated to the north. Pat Ritzinger, ObBO S. Shore Drive, asked why her property was being assessed as it w,ts north of the Improvement. Director Moore dnswered that the improvement project will extend to her property which has never been assessed for a street.. Mr. Miller pointed out that a((other street will he proposed at the Pldnnlny Commi.islon mccLing as part of a shopping center project. Director Moore Stated I' street which will be part of the shop- pi((q center project , Is already shown on the Thoroughfare Guide. flan.

He noted, however, that there were not a large number of fires of this typr in the Clty, none In Chelsea previously, that fireplaces are In the top three causes of fires In the City and throughout the state, and that this particular fire had a substantial start before the fire de- partment was called. He oi.tilned the four steps staff could take to help residents. The proposal does not contemplate staff Inspections of the units. Counclimember Vaslliou stated she personally takes great offense with a Council and staff who feels public safety Is too expen- sive. She believes that whatever the cost, the City should un- dertake what needs to be done. Councilmember Sisk stated there are a number of older homes in the City and he would find it difficult to deny any other resi- dents the same benefit And doesn't feel the City should be in this business. Discussion followed on the precedent being set, who would do the corrective work, and the potential increase in exposure of !la- bility If the City Inspected the buildings. Counctlmember Sisk stated he doesn't believe the City Is putt:rn any ohstacles In the residents way at this point. Mr. Plant stated they are not all that interested In having the buildings meet the current code. They want to know how unsafe they are and what their alternatives are for Improving safety. Counctlmember Crain stated the key Issue Is timeliness and he believes the best way to deal with that is to make It clear that the Council gives this top priority; Lhts means that staff re- sources needed at any qiven time should be devoted to the accom- plishment of the work progrm outlined In the Assistant Manager's report.
