I I I Council Minutes January 8, 1985 Proper indicated he had discussed the assessments and phases with the City Attorney and indicated that individual street projects would result in high assessments (one sec- tion at $1300, one section at $1700). The City could hold one improvement hearing, treating the projects as one proj- ect, but the resolution of approval would state that the project would be constructed in phases. The assessments could then be levied (before the sections, in the middle, or in the end) as long as that had been identified in the resolution. Proper stated this would overcome the problem of constructing in different phases and still assessing it equa lly. City Attorney stated that in order to do this, it is necessary to order in the improvement as one improvement and design the entire road at one time.
