City of Paducah v. Yancey

Opinion op the Court by

Judge Clarke

Affirming.

Appellees Bradshaws own a lot fronting Broadway street in the city of Paducah. In 2921, the city paved the roadway in front and upon either side of their lot, and apportioned the cost thereof among the abutting property owners. The cost of this construction was $4.7624 per abutting foot, and the amount thus assessed against the Bradshaws was $1,586.47. In this action against them to enforce the improvement lien, they proved and the court found the market value of their lot, after the improvement had been made, to be $9.75 a front foot.
