The Village Manager is hereby authorized and directed to make divisions
and adjustments of special assessments for public improvements in the follow-
ing situations in accordance with the followings
1. A parcel of land is located on a corner. Either a trunk sanitary
sewer or a lateral sanitary sewer are constructed along one side of the par-
cel, resulting in a lateral assess~hent. Later a lateral sewer is constructed
along the other side of the parcel, resulting in a lateral assessment. The
second lateral assessment shall be computed by using the number of frontage
feet which remain after subtracting the number of feet which were considered
benefited in the first assessment,
Tf the tract is divided after the first assessment, the front footage
nearest the street in which the first sewer was constructed shall be deemed
to be the frontage against which the first assessment was made.
2. A parcel of land is privately owned and is assessed for a public
improvement. Later ail or a part of the parcel is acquired by the Village
for purposes other than for streets. The assessment against the parcel or
part thereof so acquired shall be cancelled, to the extent unpaid.
3. A parcel of land is assessed for public improvements. L,a.ter a part
of the parcel is taken'by the State of Minnesota for highway purposes. Be-
fore making a division, the village shall be paid that p roportion of the
assessment which is equal to the proportion of land taken. The balance of
the sanitary sewer assessment shall be allocated proportionately against the
land remaining after the taking.
4. A parcel of land zoned other than residential is assessed for a
public improvement. Later fractional parcels are conveyed for street widen-
ing easements. No adjustment shall be made in the special assessments by
reason of the street easements.

acreage basis. The parcel is later divided. The assessment shall be divided
proportionately2t~'~ng-the several resulting parcels.
6. A parcel of land is assessed for only one sanitary sewer stub line.
Two were installed. The parcel is large enough to be divided into -two so
that one stub may serve each resulting parcel. The cost of the omitted stub
shall be added to the original assessment. The amount of installments pre-
viously paid shall be deducted from the new total assess~ent, and the balance
shall be assessed proportionately, accordi ng to frontage, between the two
resulting parcels for the balance of the assessment term.
