Hardy Mayor and council Communication DATE REFERENNUMBER CE SUBJECT: Proposed Developer's Contract - PACE 11/11/63 C-188 Ryanwood Addition, Blocks .l, 14, 15 and I of 2 E. F. Beaty and W. B. Grove, partners, have signed a proposed developer's con- tract for sanitar7,r sewers, street improvements, storm drains and street lights to serve Blocks 1, 14, 15 and 16, Ryanwood Addition. The estimated costs of these facilities are as follows: TOTAL DEVELOPER CITY Street Improvements: Construction $20,000.00 $20,000.00 $ -0- Engineering 2,000.00 -0- 2,000.00 Storm Drains 7,000.00 7,000.00 -0- Street Lights 1,353.00 1,353000 -0- Sanitary Sewers 11,153.24" 8.960.15* 2.193.09 Total $41,506.24 $37,313.15 $4,193.09 *Includes $1,720.00 for Ott service lines. Yolanda Drive, the northern border street of the area to be developed, is to be improved on the assessment basis. The City Master Thoroughfare Plan establishes Sandy Lane between Meadowbrook and Randol Mill Road as a 60-foot roadway on an 80-foot right-of-way. The present right-of-way of Sandy Lane is less than 80 feet. The Ryanwood Addition developers have dedicated a 20-foot strip on the west side of Sandy Lane, which is a border street to this addition. For these reasons City Council action on July 9, 1962 (M&C PK-1116), approved the initial Ryanwood developer's contract (Developers Contract No. 4606), which stipulated that Beaty and Grove, the developers, would construct the west 40-feet of the roadway, including curb and gutter, to arterial street standards. This was done to permit construction of permanent paving at that time to serve current needs without purchasing a 20-foot strip on the east side of Sandy Lane needed to com- plete the 80-foot right-of-way for a 60-foot roadway. The developers at that time, agreed to install this pavement from the southern limit of the development to Yolanda Lane, the northern limit of the development. Although the initial contract provided for the paving of that portion of Sandy Lane adjacent to the area included in the developer's contract which is proposed at this time, the proposed developers contract again provides for Sandy Lane improvements. The developer is to be reimbursed all costs in excess of a 20-foot residential pave- ment, which will amount to approximately $15,600.00; however, funds were set aside when the initial developer's contract for the addition was approved and the reimbursement will be made when the developeseg have, satisfactorily completed,;, Sandy Lane. The remaining 20 feet of pavement on the east side, including curb and gutter, will be added at the time of the development of the adjacent property lying east of Sandy Lane at the expense of such potential developer. On September 23, 1963, the City Council authorized the City Staff to accept a deposit of funds from the Carter Foundation Production Company in the amount of the performance bonds required by the ttPolicies for Installatio "t Facilities" in lieu of those bonds usually required in the amou tI �� �) cost of storm drains and street lights and 20% of street improv f(O & CITY SECRETARY REFEREN DATE NUMBER CE SUBJECT: Proposed Deve7oper'ts Contra^.'.- - PAGE 11/11/63 C-188 Ryanwood Addition., Blocks 1, 14, 1 and 2 ? Of The Public Works Department recommended such action because allowing a developer the alternative of depositing funds with the City in lieu of performance bonds assures the desired performance, and, most of the time, is financially desirable to the developer. In this case, Beaty and Grove, the developers, have deposited a performance bond in, the amount of 20% of the estimated costs of street improve- ments in the development and funds in the amount of 1.00% of the estimated costs of storm drains and street lights. Because the sanitary sewer to be constructed on Yolanda Drive and Janice Lane constitutes an approach main, it is necessary that an ordinance be passed estab- lishing a uniform sanitary sewer connection charge of $13.78 for all or part of Blocks 1, 14, 15, and 16, Ryanwood Addition and the drainage area of approxi- mately 64 acres north of Yolanda Drive and adjacent to said portion of Ryanwood Addition. The City?s street engineering costs will be charged to Project 097-35000-501, Street Engineering and Miscellaneous Expenditures. Recommendations for financing the City?s sanitary sewer cost will be made when the construction contract is awarded. RECOMMENDED COUNCIL ACTION: (1 That the City Manager be authorized to execute the proposed contract on behalf of the City and that the financing be approved as recommended above. (2 That an ordinance be passed establishing a uniform sanitary sewer connection charge for the area described above. (3 That the standard developers"s policy as expressed in "Policies for Installation of Community Facilities" be amended to provide that funds may be deposited and held in the same amount and manner, and in lieu of the performance bonds now required, for the installation of street lights, storm drains and street improvements. (4 That, wherever applicable and upon request of the developer involved, -the appropriate Department, Head may authorize a substitution of funds for performance bonds deposit-ed with developer?s contracts already executed when it is felt that such substitution wi 11 guarantee the perforin-anoe of the developer.
