Mr. Rosland recalled that the Assessment Hearing for Parking Lot Inprovement No. P-12 had been continued from August 13, 1980, and that the Colonial Church of Edina has requested a reduction in the assessment in view of the fact that the total construction cost of $63,868.12 had exceeded the estimated construction cost of $34,734.81 and that the church had not been advised of this additional cost. Err. Rosland further recalled that a portion of the parking lot is built on City property. He explained that the unusual difference in the estimated cost and the actual cost was due to soil condi- tions and recommended that the assessment be reduced by the zmount of the engin- eering and clerical costs to 558,564.95 and also that the assessment be spread over 20 years. that the land on which the parking lot was built is immediately to the West of Countryside Park and that, at the time the parking lot was built, the church dedicated the area now known as Colonial Way and an additional area of approxi- mately 3 or 4 acres to the City for use as a parking lot for park activities. also recalled that additional parking space was necessary at the time the church added additional seating in the balcony and that the dedication of the land was made at that the.
