Richards Street-- Ayers Street to Naples Street
(collectively, the "Southmoreland Addition Street Improvements --Phase II Project")(the "Project").
In Resolution No.(2 S3%the City Council stated that the Project consisted of three (3)
categories of improvements: 1) street, curb, gutter, and sidewalk improvements to be paid for partly
by the City and partly by assessments; 2) driveways to be paid for entirely by assessments; and 3)
other improvements to be paid for by the City because either the assessment statute did not apply
to these improvements or the City was not making assessments to pay for them.
The City's Department of Engineering Services prepared detailed project plans and
specifications. The City then received bids to construct the Project accordingly.
