1 1I MEMO TO: MAYOR AND CITY COUNC FROM: CLERK-ADMINISTRATO DATE: FEBRUARY 23, 1987 SUBJECT: KNOLLWOOD DRIVE EXTENSION The City has once again received a petition, copy attached, from property owners along Spring Lake and Groveland Road for public improvements in the area of what has become known as the Knoll - wood Drive Extension. Prior to responding to this petition, Staff wishes to determine the position of the City Council regarding the conditions under which public improvements would be undertaken by the City for the extension of Knollwood Drive. The last time this issue came before the City Council was in September of 1985 when the Council determined that the Knollwood Drive extension road pattern would be as shown in the attachment to the petition. This decision was made on the basis of an engineering evaluation performed by Steve Thatcher which determined that water and sanitary sewer looping would best be accomplished by connection to Sherwood Road at the intersection with Groveland Road and that an extension of Knollwood Road onto Spring Lake Road near Highway 10 would be unacceptable due to the proximity of the intersection to Highway 10. Council concurred with the recommendations of Mr. Thatcher at that time and further directed Staff, and advised the residents of the area, that public improvements would not be authorized by the City until such time as their petition was received by the City with 100% of the property owners involved requesting the improvements and agreeing to assessment for said improvements. Due to the fact that the petition currently before the City is not signed by 100% of the property owners impacted by this proposed project, Staff is bringing it before you once again to determine whether you still hold to the direction given in 1985 or wish to take a different position at this time. Your direction in this matter would be greatly appreciated. DFP/mjs Attachments:
