COUNCIL MINUTES APRIL 24, 2000 Project Update, Otter Lake Service Road, John Powell — Staff advised the Otter Lake Service Road project was initiated by the City Council in 1996. The proposed roadway connects the previous Otter Lake Road alignment with the new alignment. The proposed improvements include sanitary sewer, watermain, storm sewer, and roadway construction. This project would provide traffic circulation and utility access for the properties located to the southwest of the new Otter Lake Road/Main Street intersection. Access to the property on the south side of Main Street will be provided by this service road. The property owner in this area, Mr. Richard Schreier, objected to this project including the alignment, proposed assessments, and property acquisition. After the city initiated eminent domain proceedings to acquire access to the property, discussions were held between the City, Mr. Schreier, and his attorney. As a result of these discussions, the City agreed to delay construction of the proposed improvements. This would allow Mr. Schreier time to prepare a development concept, including proposed roadways, consistent with his needs and priorities. The City has yet to receive an alternative roadway and development concept from the property owner. The City Attorney has stated the delay agreement has expired and that the city has possession of this property. The City also has a need to construct the improvements in order to provide infrastructure for the proposed bank on the southwest corner of Otter Lake Road and the service road. The plans and specifications will be prepared and submitted to the City Couhc I for consideration on May 22, 2000.
