MINUTES <br />CITY COUNCIL <br />MAY 26, 1993 <br />DEVELOPER The City Administrator reviewed staff's recommendation <br />DEPOSIT FEE to increase the developer deposit fee for subdivisions. <br />The Administrator noted that developers and property <br />owners are responsible for the costs involved in <br />subdivisions, however, staff is recommending the <br />increase in order to collect costs on the front end <br />rather than billing large amounts after the application <br />has been processed. The Administrator pointed out that <br />one of the reasons for the hiqh cost of subdivisions is <br />that the City requires the dedication of drainage and <br />utility easements along lot lines. The City's <br />consultants highly recommend the dedication of these <br />easements, and it is a standard requirement in most <br />surrounding cities. <br />Mrs. Scalze introduced the following resolution and <br />moved its adoption: <br />RESOLUTION N0. 93-5-153 - APPROVING THE INCREASE IN <br />DEVELOPER DEPOSIT FEE FOR SUBDIVISION REQUESTS AS <br />RECOMMENDED BY CITY STAFF <br />The foregoing resolution was duly seconded by LaValle. <br />Ayes (5) Scalze, LaValle, Hanson, Pedersen, Morelan. <br />Nays (0). Resolution declared adopted. <br />SWIMMING Council reviewed the information provided by City staff <br />POOL regarding fencing requirements around swimming pools. <br />FENCING <br />The City Planner agreed with the results of the survey <br />and reported that the Metro average requirement for <br />fencing height around swimming pools is from 4 to 6 <br />feet. <br />Morelan felt that the impact might be minimal at this <br />point if the City increased its fencing height <br />requirement from 4 to 6 feet since the change would <br />apply to fencing around new swimming pools, with <br />existing fencing being grandfathered in. However, <br />Morelan suggested the possibility of holding a public <br />hearing to determine the public's reaction to <br />increasing the height requirement. <br />Council discussed the fact that an increased height <br />requirement would apply only to new fencing, and the <br />fact that the City was nearly completely developed. <br />Therefore, the Council made no proposal for change at <br />this time. <br />PRESBYTERIAN Hanson reported that residents have begun moving into <br />HOMES Presbyterian Homes new senior complex "The Mayfield". <br />Page 23 <br />
