Being a former Property Tax Assessor, I would think you would expense the street assessment fee as is is already apportioned with principle and interest as a fee on the tax bill.
I used to apportion the water assessments to create a fee schedule to determine amounts to add to the tax bills.
This is my opinion, I am not sure if it is correct.

Subject: How to account for street assessment
Does anyone know how to account for street assessments. As an example, if your company pays the city for curb and gutter do you capitalize or expense it? Any other way to report it?
