He.also stated that the residents are considering the cost factor and would like to have an estimate as to what the project will cost.

Mr. Ben Benedum, Director of Public Works, stated that the project will cost an average of $6.00 per linear foot. If the County picks up the tab, as usually is done, for one-third of the cost, it will cost the residents approximately $4.00 per linear foot. The total cost for the project (approximately two (2) miles long) will be approximately $60-70,OOO.OO.

Mr. Richard Schwartz, City Councilman with the City of Tavares, appeared before the Board and stated that it was the City's policy for any annexation or new developments that would be built in the City of Tavares, to come into the City with the roads, water and sewer all to City specifications. This is where the problem lies, at present, with the road in Imperial Terrace. He stated that the City would hope to be able to do the improvements in Imperial Terrace before any road work took place, if the annexation goes through, in order to prevent any additional costs to the City, County, or residents.

The Board questioned the County Attorney as to whether there might be a problem with the residents of Imperial Terrace getting up a petition for a special assessment project after the November 4, 1986 election, whereas the residents will vote whether to be annexed into the City of Tavares or not.

Further discussion occurred regarding the annexation and the road project.
