184.120 Determination of cost -- Assessment against owners. When a bid has been accepted and the cost of constructing the road improvement or the
cost of the maintenance has thus been determined, the board of directors shall prepare a
statement of all costs of constructing the project or providing road maintenance
(including the cost of organizing the district, preliminary expenses, fees of directors,
engineer and attorney, and a sum sufficient to provide for any unforeseen contingencies
up to and including the completion of the project, together with a fund adequate to
provide for continuing costs of the district which may include reasonable maintenance of
the roads, drainage, ditches and sidewalks for a period of ten (10) years) and shall
thereupon determine the front-foot cost of constructing the road improvement or the
front-foot cost of providing road maintenance. The board of directors shall then assess
against each owner of the property abutting upon the road improved or maintained within
the limits of the district that proportion of the cost of constructing the entire improvement
or that proportion of the cost of providing proper maintenance which his front footage
abutting upon the road bears to the total front footage of all properties abutting upon the
road within the district. In determining the total front footage intersection shall be
included. History: Amended 1968 Ky. Acts ch. 55, sec. 8. -- Amended 1952 Ky. Acts ch. 11, sec. 4. -- Created 1942 Ky. Acts ch. 65, sec. 12.
