SUBMITTED BY: Jack Griffin, City Engineer REVIEWED BY: Kristina Handt, City Administrator Emily Becker, Planning Director Rob Weldon, Public Works Director
ISSUE BEFORE COUNCIL: Should the City Council accept the improvements for the Boulder Ponds 1st Addition? PROPOSAL DETAILS/ANALYSIS: The Boulder Ponds 1st Addition public improvements, including the sanitary sewer, watermain, street construction including concrete curb and gutter, storm sewer,
sidewalks, and trails have been completed in accordance with the Development Agreement dated May 26, 2015. Staff is therefore recommending acceptance of these improvements by the City. The improvements remain under warranty in accordance with the attached Certification of Completion form, and the Developer
will be required to make warranty corrections for any items identified prior to the warranty expiration. A security amount of 25% of the original security has been retained until the warranty period has expired. This acceptance does not apply to landscaping improvements including infiltration basin restoration.
Landscaping Improvements will be accepted separately and with different warranty dates. Per the development agreement, City payments for utility oversizing are due to be made within 30 days of the City's final acceptance. The development agreement dated May 26, 2015 identifies sanitary sewer oversizing payments in the amount of $20,633.55. Upon acceptance of the improvements, the sanitary sewer oversize payments will be processed.
FISCAL IMPACT: Payment of $20,633.55 will be made from the Sanitary Sewer fund for sanitary sewer pipe oversizing. RECOMMENDATION: Staff is recommending that the City Council, as part of the Consent Agenda, accept the improvements for the Boulder Ponds 1st Addition. If removed from the consent agenda, the recommended motion for the action is as follows:
“Move to accept the improvements for the Boulder Ponds 1st Addition”. ATTACHMENTS:
