1Opinion of the Court

SHUGHART, P.J.,

In response to a petition, a rule was issued to show cause why municipal liens filed December 9, 1968, which reflect an unpaid assessment for the construction of a sanitary sewer system, should not be stricken. Petitioner contends that the “foot front” method of assessment has been improperly applied to his property. In our opinion, respondent has correctly determined the assessments through a proper application of the “foot front” method, and the rule must, therefore, be discharged.
