A Resolution authorizing the installation of certain sidewalks.
WHEREAS, the Common Council of the City of Janesville desires the installation
of standard concrete sidewalks in front of the parcels of land described below where
standard concrete sidewalks have not been constructed; and
WHEREAS, the Common Council desires that the construction of these
sidewalks be effectuated pursuant to the empowerment and according to the

WHEREAS, the City anticipates that monies, other than the proceeds of any

improvements. The City reasonably expects to be reimbursed for such expenditures
with proceeds of its debt. The maximum principal amount of debt expected to be issued
for the reimbursement of such expenditures is $1,000,000. No funds from sources
other than the debt referred to above are, or are expected to be, reserved, allocated on
a long-term basis, or otherwise set aside by the City or any entity controlled by the City
pursuant to its budget or financial policies with respect to the Projects. This is

following completion of the work; or (c) at the election of the property owner, spread
over a period of five (5) years with interest at seven percent (7%) per annum on the
unpaid balance. The first installment on the five-year plan shall include one-fifth of the
principal with the interest for November and December on the unpaid portion and shall
be so entered in the tax roll. Each of the subsequent installments shall be entered in
each of the annual tax rolls thereafter until all are collected. Deferred payment on the
aforementioned installments shall bear interest at seven percent (7%) per annum.
