City Council Meeting [Consent Agenda Item]
December 1, 2015
-- page 2 --
“Move to approve the driveway encroachment and maintenance agreement for Jeerasak
Poophakumpanart to install a driveway within an unimproved portion of the public right-of-
way owned by the City.”
LEGISLATIVE HISTORY: The Driveway Encroachment and Maintenance Agreement that
has been submitted for Council consideration is for a driveway and has been reviewed by
planning and engineering staff. The proposed driveway meets all city code requirements and Staff would have otherwise authorized construction of the driveway if it did not encroach into
the unimproved portion of the public right-of-way owned by the City.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION (SWOT):
Strengths: The Driveway encroachment and maintenance agreement is a legal document that all property owners seeking to install driveways within unimproved portions of
public right-of-way owned by the City are required to sign. The document, among other
things, indemnifies the city from responsibility if damage occurs to the improvement or if
it needs to be removed at some point in the future.
Weaknesses: None
Opportunities: None
Threats: None
RECOMMENDATION:
Based on the aforementioned, Staff is recommending that the City Council approve the driveway encroachment and maintenance agreement as part of the Consent Agenda. If the City Council
removes the item from the Consent Agenda, the recommended action can be completed through
the following motion:
“Move to approve the driveway encroachment and maintenance agreement for Jeerasak Poophakumpanart to install a driveway within an unimproved portion of the public right-of-way owned by the City.”
