WHEREAS, the City Council passed Ordinance No. 2194 forming a Local Improvement
District for the improvement of the alley between Harrison Street and West Hayes Street (the

remaining share; and

the Alley LID; and

engineering report adopted by Council on October 28, 1996, and hence it should not have been
included in the assessment district; and

and use City funds to pay for the amount of this assessment; NOW, THEREFORE,
THE CITY OF WOODBURN ORDAINS AS FOLLOWS:
