Landowners object to DD82 proposal, question alignment and cost; request remote participation
Summary
Several landowners submitted written objections to the DD82 improvement plan, citing excessive assessments, elevation-based benefit disagreements, and asking for an online meeting option; one caller conditioned support on changing alignment.
During the DD82 public hearing clerks read several written objections and the board heard comment from callers and those in the room. R. Johnson sent a written objection saying a similar project in the past left landowners liable and that he strongly opposed the proposed improvement. Douglas L. and Deborah J. Alks submitted a written objection saying the proposed $36,516.33 assessment for their 30.99 acres exceeds the benefit they expect and asked for an online meeting option for the July hearing.
Caller Jerry Perford said his support is "contingent" on moving the proposed alignment to a different location on his property and the engineer acknowledged that alignment adjustments are part of the final design process. The engineer and board clarified that whether an objector is assessed depends on the final reclassification and whether the parcel is within the benefited area; the board took the objections into the record and discussed next steps.
