In its Resolution NoD).l.~5~ passed on April 30, 2002, the City Council determined that
it was necessary to improve and ordered the improvement of the following highway in Corpus
Christi, Nueces County, Texas:
Woodlawn Drive from South Padre Island Drive (SPlD) West Bound Frontage Road to
McArdle Road (the Woodlawn Drive Street Improvements Project).
In Resolution No.ffi4-'3'53, the city council stated that the Project consisted of3
categories or improvements: I) 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.
After evaluating the apparent lowest responsible bid to construct the Project, the director
of engineering services prepared a Project Construction Cost Estimate (attached as Exhibit A).
This estimate specifies anticipated total Project construction cost and the city portion of this cost,
the preliminary total of assessments, and various assessment rates. The estimate also includes a
bid tabulation and a preliminary assessment roll listing proposed assessments against each
abutting or affected property.

The project consists of construction of 1,300 linear feet of 28-foot back-to-back pavement,

PRELIMINARY ASSESSMENT ROLL, Woodlawn Drive
Woodlawn Drive - McArdle Road to S.P.I.D.
My name is George N Paraskevas and I am a State Certified Residential appraiser and
have been evaluating property and practicing real estate in the Corpus Christi area since 1971. I have
experience in appraising both commercial and residential properties, and I am fumiliar with the real
estate market in Corpus Christi.
I am fiuniliar with the Woodlawn Drive Street Improvements. I agree with Mr. Jeff Barroso's
description of the conditions to be changed and I am fiuniliar with the improvements to be made by the
City of Corpus Christi.
I have reviewed the project assessment roll; and personally examined each ofthe 32 parcels ofland
therein. In my opinion each such parcel will be specifically benefited by each improvement to be assessed
against it; without regard to the community benefit.
In addition, it is my opinion that each such parcel will be specially enhanced by such improvement at
least to the extent ofthe assessment stated.
Thank you,
