COUNCIL MEETING MARCH 26, 1990 providing the developer pay the cost of the feasibility report prior to the study being started. This means that if the preliminary plat is not approved by the City the cost of the feasibility report will still be covered. Council Member Neal moved to approve Resolution No. 12 - 90 ordering a feasibility report for PineRidge, contingent upon the escrow being paid prior to the start of the feasibility report and with the understanding that by taking this action of authorizing the feasibility report prior to the reviewing of the preliminary plat in no way binds the Council to a preliminary plat approval. Council Member Kuether seconded the motion. On roll call vote, motion carried unanimously. Resolution No. 12 - 90 can be found at the end of these minutes. Resolution No. 13 - 90 Ordering Feasibility Report for Pheasant Hills and Resolution No. 14 - 90 Ordering Feasibility Report or Brandywood Estates, Dan Boxrud -Mr. Boxrud explained that Mr. Vaughn and Mr. Erickson have waited until the Metropolitan Council approved the Comprehensive Sewer Plan Amendment before moving further with their preliminary plats. The approval has come from the Metropolitan Council and Mr Vaughn and Mr. Erickson will be seeking preliminary plat approval from the Design Review Board. They are requesting that the Council order a feasibility study for their subdivisions at this time to help speed the process. Here again Mr. Boxrud recommended approval of the resolution contingent upon receipt of escrow to cover the cost of the study. Council Member Reinert noted that this is not the normal procedure and asked if there was anything in the City Charter or State Law that would prohibit Council action. There is nothing. However, Mr. Schumacher wanted to be sure that the developers understand that by taking action authorizing the feasibility studies prior to reviewing the preliminary plat does not bind the Council to an automatic approval. Council Member Neal moved to authorize the feasibility report study for Brandywood Estates and Pheasant Hills contingent upon proper escrow being provided to the City. Mayor Bisel seconded the motion. On a roll call vote, motion carried with Council Member Kuether abstaining. Resolution No. 13 - 90 and Resolution No. 14 - 90 can be found at the end of these minutes.
