A Resolution authorizing the installation of certain sidewalks.
WHEREAS, the Common Council of the City of Janesville desires the installation

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

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
