inch (8") gravel base and two foot (2') gravel shoulders.
The design is for a seven ton (7) road.
There are seven (7) assessable units on 92ND Street as
the total estimated cost for 92ND is $31,875.00, the assessed
cost per unit would be $4,553.57. As Kadler Avenue has
eleven (11) Assessable units, using the $4,553.57 for all
eighteen (18) units, the cost breakdown on the project would
be as follows:

ANNUAL UNIT COST FOR 10 YEARS 709.45

would be to assess the 11 units on Kadler Avenue at a
$2,276.78 figure and the 7 units on 92ND Street at the
$4,553.57 figure as it is a residential street Using these
assessment figures, the breakdown on the project would be as

John Simola said that 92ND Street is badly in need of
gravel whether the project is done or not. He said that the
project cost reflects a 44% higher figure than projects the
County is doing this year. Because the street is in need of
gravel, he felt the Township should pay for the gravel on
92ND Street if the project is done. He said he did not feel
his property would benefit to the entent of the $4,553.57
Assessment and as he has helped pay for other projects in the
Township he feels the Township should help pay for 92ND
Street.
Supervisor Douglas Lindenfelser said that it has been
Township policy to fully assess bituminous projects in
residential areas.
Donald Greninger asked which project his 20 acres of Ag.
land would be assessed for as it fronts on both Kadler Ave.
and 92ND Street. Engineer Larry Koshak said he would be
assessed for 92ND Street as that is the longer side and
normally a corner lot is assessed for the longer side.
The Board said that the Township would consider picking
up the cost of the gravel on 92ND Street and the assessment
would then be reduced to approximately $3,303.00.
A straw vote was taken to obtain the residents opinion
of the project.
FOR THE KADLER AVENUE PROJECT:
In Favor - 2
Opposed - 6
FOR THE 92ND ST. PROJECT:
In Favor - 2
Opposed. - 3
Motion by Douglas Lindenfelser to adjourn the Hearing
and postpone a decision on the project until the next Town
Board Meeting on August 15, 1988. Seconded by Norman Freske,
all Board Members voted in favor of the motion.
