I I I City of New Brighton August 16, 1983 Page Two Public Hearings The City Engineer reviewed the project 82-1, project costs and proposed assessments. Mr. Jim Rekucki, 1525 - 28th Ave. N.W. stated that he was happy to see the project completed and that the City did a fine job. He questioned whether he was being assessed for improvements that were already paid for by the residents when the street was originally put in. Councilmember Schmidt stated he agreed with the logic and questioned whether it could be determined if there was any difference in cost in reference to giving credit for the improvements paid for at the time the street was installed. The City Engineer responded that Mr. Rekucki would be paying for a little curbing now, but he had been benefitting from the improvements installed previously, for which he paid nothing. Councilmember Benke questioned whether Lots 6, 7, & 8 were assessed for any utilities previously. The City Engineer responded that they were not. Mr. Rukucki stated that he did not feel that he should pay for something that had been paid for before. Councilmember Benke responded that Mr. Rukucki was paying now for something that had benefitted him for years.
