Scalloped Street Assessment Projects
The Scalloped Street Assessment Law allows the City to
construct street improvements adjacent to developed and
undeveloped properties and to assess the actual costs of the
improvements to those properties receiving benefits from the
improvements.
The construction of the improvement will result in an
assessment lien against the property for the amount of the
actual street improvement costs.
Scalloped Street Assessments will not bear interest and is
subject to payment when an application for a building permit for
the development of property is applied for development of the
property includes the construction of a building upon a vacant
parcel or modifying an existing structure by more than 100% of
its original size. The lien is recorded against the property for
a period of ten (10) years beginning after the assessment has
been recorded. If the property is not developed within ten (10)
years, the assessment is no longer due.
Engineering is responsible for coordinating the activities on
all Scalloped Street Assessment Projects. This includes
assessment estimates, notifications, calculating and recordation
of the final assessments.
