I don't know who to opppose it to, city clerk say they don't want property tax go up an want do things there way , I don't know what can do about it , hire attorney an very expensive an maybe do nothing can do , if I don't pay bill next year later, they send it to co taxes, so mortgage co get bill an I have 18 months pay $5-7k additional
. There are several things that you can still do...... Get signed up to be on the agenda for your next city council meeting. Make your concerns known in a public forum. You might find out there are others that will be affected by this project and they might be against the project too. Get in touch with your councilman and let your thoughts be known. How much is the city levy / rate now in your town? I thought special assessments were done by the amount of property frontage, unless you have a huge lot, you may pay a lesser assessment than say the "millionaire" at the end of the street.

You need to talk to the engineer about your sewer line. There is a small chance, the chance is very small, they'll require it to be updated. If not they'll stub a line to your lot for the when the day comes your lateral line fails.

Being a City Slicker has its downside....My water comes from a well I drilled, my sewage goes to a septic system I paid for. My Natural Gas comes from a line 1/4 mile long I paid for. My driveway also 1/4 mile long I plow snow, and grade in summer, to get to a mile long gravel road the county takes care of...I wouldn't have it any other way. If I was Coonman I would find a apartment and let the bank have the house. Or pay up.....Folks that spend themselves into a corner, then complain about it, that's priceless.
you're only allowed so many sunrises... I aim to see every one of them!

They might "plow" it in. If so, you might be able to see a slight disruption to the top of the soil, sort of like when they plow in plastic drainage tile in farm fields.

They won't hit sewer or water at 30" unless you are on bedrock .

Hope don't hit waterline as mark but shallow from bottom hill at sidewalk for short stretch until go down below street , hope it below 30 inches You worry about some things that don't warrant worry. You're going to drive the construction crews bananas
