Attached is a draft of the Willdan PP for next Wednesday. I need some dates and new photos for the front and back
covers. These are from Jupiter Inlet Colony.
Danny, can you look it over in general and in particular, check my numbers for private work on slide 8 and on slide 9 we
need to insert when construction will most likely begin, how long it will take (in two phases) and private connection how
long after main construction. If these numbers are in your presentation, let me know and I’ll drop them here and reference
your slide presentation since you are going ahead of me
Susan, your general review would be appriciated.
Pam, I need new pictures for the cover, front and back.

Developing Assessment Methodology
•Based on overhead utility network, properties within Town, and
benefits received from improvements
–Conducted fieldwork to customize assessment to Town characteristics
•General benefit identified and separated from special benefit
–General benefit may not be funded by assessments
–A portion of the project cost is considered general benefit
•Special benefits identified and utilized to calculate
assessments
•Assessment methodology apportions cost based on benefit
calculation and identifies each property’s assessment amount
