Discussed: 1) Estimated Seahorse Assessment and criteria for figuring it.
Use 3/4 unit for calculating. Council ordered an appraisal of Seahorse
values made before and after construction. Market value would be based on
benefit. Same criteria should be used for calculating units on Grandview
Apartments. 2) Day Care Center - What criteria should be used on deter-
mining units - use zoning to determine number of units - estimate of 4 per
this site due to topography. 3) Shirley Hills School - Property previously
assessed - discussed and no consensus arrived at.
The Engineer requested rationale to use for various criteria - number of
units to use - base on zoning? or. Polston suggested that the City Manager,
