MS (Hodges- Baumgartner) to adopt Resolution No. 918 approving the Northcrest Park
final plat and Resolution No. 919 authorizing execution of a development agreement
requiring payment of the park fund dedication of $53,000 in four equal installments,
commencing July 1, 1979 and each July 1 thereafter until fully paid, and that
financial security be posted to guarantee the payment of the first five annual
installments on the pending special assessments for Public Improvement Project
1978 -3.
Councilmember Baumgartner pointed out that the park fund dedication from Programmed
Land was in four equal installments and that he would like to see the same guidelines
followed.
Dan Boxrud of Short - Elliott - Hendrickson stated that the curb and gutter and side-
walks and blacktop would not be completed until July of 1979. Administration Achen
reported that Mr. Beim had inquired previously if it would be possible to start
development on the property before completion of the improvements, and that he had
told him the City would have to be assured the improvements would be paid for, and
would most likely be in favor of it since it would provide for more timely payment
of the assessments.
Councilmember Baumgartner replied that he would have a problem with that as he could
foresee the Fire Department not being able to get into the development in case of a
fire if the roads were not in.
Administrator Achen stated that he felt partial payment of the park dedication fee
should be required at the time the plat is filed, as is required of other developers.
MSP (Rowley- Baumgartner) to amend the motion to require that 25% of the park fund
dedication be paid by October 1, 1978 and the remainder in three equal installments
