AGENDA ITEM 7C <br />• STAFF ORIGINATOR: John Powell, City Engineer <br />COUNCIL MEETING DATE: January 22, 2001 <br />TOPIC: PUBLIC HEARING, Bluebill Ponds Utility and Street Improvements <br />• <br />• <br />VOTE REQUIRED: 3/5 Vote required to close the hearing <br />BACKGROUND: <br />This public hearing was continued from the November 13, 2000, City Council <br />meeting. The Feasibility Report for this project assumed Bluebill Ponds would <br />be responsible for all street construction costs, including those for the roadway <br />abutting the Mar Don Acres lots. The developer, Heritage Development, has <br />objected to this approach. <br />The City Attorney has indicated that the City would not be able to assess street <br />construction costs upon subdivision of the Mar Don Acres lots unless we had <br />prior approval from the effected property owners. This prior approval is not <br />required for the City to assess utility costs. <br />Based on the neighborhood meeting which was held Thursday, January 11, <br />2001 and other conversations with Mar Don Acres residents, the City is not able <br />to secure prior approval from these residents for street assessments. Therefore, <br />the proposed assessments to Bluebill Ponds as indicated in the original <br />Feasibility Study, remain unchanged. <br />OPTIONS: <br />1. Close the public hearing. <br />2. Continue the public hearing to February 12, 2001. <br />RECOMMENDATION: <br />Option No. 1 - Staff recommends closing the public hearing. <br />
