PUBLIC HEARING - L.I.D. N0. 77 (Sanitary.Sewer on Wehe Street): MAY CARTER DECLARED THE PUBLIC HEARING OPEN FOR PROPOSED L.I.D. NO. 770 SANITARY SEWER ON WEHE STREET: The City Manager reported the Hearing had been duly published. Reverend Willie Vaughn presented the Council with -a petition bearing signatures of the following protesters: Thomas Nealy, John Byrnes, Mattie Haney, Emma Wright, Mrs. J.D. Collins, Virginia Dickerson, Chappel Benefield, East Pasco Church of God and Amos Alexander. WILLIE VAUGHN, addressed the Council and stated the main reason the property owners on Wehe Street were protesting -the proposed L.I.D. was because they thought this improvement was to be part of the Urban Renewal Program and not an L.I.D. LOUIS CLOY felt the property owners would be more receptive if the fee was more in line with other sewer assessments; namely, $4.00 a front foot. THOMAS NEALY, owner of five lots subject to L.I.D. assessment, felt the fee was too high, and would not increase the valuation. WILBUR SKINNER, felt another Public Hearing on Urban Renewal would be advisable in order to clarify questions in some people's minds. Questions were asked as to cost of installation under Urban Renewal as opposed to an L•.I.D., what funds were available under the Urban Renewal Program for streets, lights, sewers, etc. The City Manager answered that with incomes of less than $3,600.00, they would be eligible for Rehabilitation Grants up to $1,500.00 for paving and utilities. Those with higher incomes could obtain 3% loans. The Council asked audience if they would still protest the proposed L.I.D. if assessment was lowered to $4.00 a front foot. Several stated they would withdraw their protest if the figure was changed. Motion made by Stinson t Preliminary Assessment 1 on e e treet, Seconde Motion made by Hendler form L.I.D.
