CARD FROM R.l.WALl
UNION RECORDER, MILLEDGEVILLE. GA„ MARCH 7, 1929
Mr. Editor:
“I stated in your paper last issue
i should expose the paving issue that
was put over in the city” I under
stand some have construed this to
mean that I am accusing the council
of receiving benefits for their per
sonal use. I assure the public there
was no fuch thought in my mind, I
have checked over several zones and
there is nothing to bear out such
thought ns every dollar expended by
the city is properly accounted for.
My charges are the assessment ore
excessive and this excess went to re
duce the cost of the intersections
that the city was due to pay.
The act of the Legislature granted
the City of Milledgeville makes it
the duty to pay the expenses on the
intersections of the streets in the
zone ret aside to be paved.
Take the zone I live in which is
No. 4. It was zoned to start on the
north proprety line of the intersec
tion of Greene and Jefferson streets
running north along Jefferson street
210 fee. north of the north intersec
tion of Montgomery street, which
would give it the interjection of
Jefferson and Hancock; Jefferson
and McIntosh; Jefferson and Mont
gomery as their expense to pave.
The engineer figures the property
owners have 2970 lineal feet abut
ting this zone and only figures in
600 lineal feet as the city’s part to
pay. On checking this zone from
the blue print of the engineer I find
the engineers have the property
owners 2976 lineal feet in a few
inches is correct, hut the 600 lineal
feet he has down for the city’s part
to pay for is incorect, as this should
be 1554 lineal feet, therefore • the
city paid for 954 lineal feet lem than
they were due to pay, asse-sing the
cost of the 954' lineal feet to the
abutting property owners when the
city should pay.
The engineer only figured in the i
street on the cast and west side of
'he intersections of Hancock. Mc
Intosh and Montgomery and did not
figure in the space between the
interestcions of the park on the above
streets, neither did they figure in
the paving wher^ Jefferson street
turns out east and west to the prop
erty line of the above streets this
they should include in the calcula-j
The engineer has charged up on ;
this assessment 748.51 for force at-!
court, this expense was made by the.
city renewing water pipes for indivi- ]
dual*. This the act prohibits and j
should not he charged on assessment, i
The engineer charged in this a - j
sessment for all the curb, gutters:
that were used around the edge of
the side walks, and around the end
of the parks that extended in the j
interjections, this should be paid for
by the city and not assessed against |
the property owner. The engineer |
has charged up the concrete header
curbs that were placed outside of the
zone. The ordinance does not pro
vide for assessments for expenses
outside of the zone.
The engineer calculated the ca«h
to the abu’ting property owners on
the following basis:
2976 lineal feet abutting property
owners plus 600 lineal feet to the
city makes a total of 5576 lineal feet
in the zone and the total cost of en
tire zone $28,071.60. So by divid
ing the total cost of $28,071.60 by
the total lineal feet of 3576 makes
$7.85 per lineal foot.
Now gmnting he entire charges
are c rrect, but there are 1554 lineal
feet in the zone then divide the total
cost of $28,071.60 by the 1554 and
we have the cost $6.20 per running
foot which i» $1 ' 5 per running foo‘
in favor of the property ow
to use on the square yard ba«ds,
there are 7550 square yards
zone of which 4960 are in front of
the property owners and 2590 on tk
indirections. The city only paid f
1,000 square yards and the remain
ing 1590 square yards were charged
un to the property owners.
