Questions directed to Mr. De Haas by Council disclosed that time would scarcely permit completion of an L.I.D. initiated this late in the year. If no L.I.D. is formed, the Peg Tree developers could proceed with the half- street, a condition under which their building permit was granted. It would then be necessary for City to bear the expense of matching the street grades. • Mayor MacLean asked if it would be possible to assess an L.I.D. by dwelling unit. Mr. Cox replied that State law allows the Council to follow any assessment formula they wish as long as it is realistic and all properties -> are benefitted..
