160 COMMON COUNCII^—AUGUST 15. 1927

Office of City Engineer , Ann Arbor, Mich.» August 11, 1927.

To the Honorable Common Council, Ann Arbor, Michigan: Gentlemen—I submit the following est imated cost and est imated

distribution of cost of curb and gut te r district 102 to 141 inclusive. It must be understood tha t the above cost and distribution of cost

is approximate only inasmuch as the fi'gures a re taken from the bid price and the majority of the work is not yet built. The distribution of cost is based upon our experience of last year. The average cost to t he City on a 20-80 basis shows 75 per cent of the to ta l cost being the property owner 's share and 25 per cent the City share.?Npn a SO-SO basis, our experience shows t h a t the City's share was 55 per cent and the total of the property owner 's share 45 per cent of the total cost.

Respectfully submit ted, GEORGE H. SANDENBURGH,
