To City of Valdez, I need some help.
I am co-owner of the Aurora Street/water line improvements
(Northern Lights Subd)
and when the time comes to sign them over
to the City
we need conditions attached
Cameron says the ONLY time the water can be
worked with is April/May
but no later as the water table rises and
you will have a BIG mess on your hands,
that affects our land, too
I didn't intend to deed over my
Multi-Family land to snow storage lot,
but have it a dedicated easement use; this
needs to be corrected,
so I can negotiate an easement &
reimbursement with the next people who want to hook on to the
water
It should still be my land; not City land.
Should anyone want to hook on, we need to
be reimbursed $35,000 on the approx $100,000 we have into this
line extension
I have paid the first $26,000 of my share
by turning over the money I got by selling Alpine Woods Lot 8,
BK 8
I still owe Cameron an equal amount,
and his thoughts on his end would be that
he would like $10,000 additional for his reimbursement.
In Clallam County, Washington where I
worked in 1975-1985, the electric company would charge a hefty
fee for power extension to the first person who wanted power in
a new area; then as others moved in, they were reimbursed a fair
share, to minimize the overcharge to the first people
Also, I don't think it is fair that we had
to do 'to specs' on the water line when others were allowed to
hook on by using a water hose type extension.
On the electric costs; I think Cameron was
at risk for loosing $15,000 deposit unless others started using
electric within a certain time period
He told me, too, that the City immediately
raised taxes on the lots as soon as the plat was done; and as
you know it takes awhile to sell lots & transfer them to people
who are benefiting from the lot (This is when the city should be
raising the taxes)
Thus the possibility of having the land I
bought being a good investment; and not a loss of money paid
already, is looking bleak.
I would like to know how much it cost the
City to do the Roads in Corbin Creek Subd.
Of Course you didn't have the added expense
of doing the water lines
