DISCUSSION:
This Mayor and Council Communication (M&C) is to authorize the establishment of a per acre charge for a developer initiated sewer main
extension (City Project No. 101118, X-24617). Forestar (USA) Real Estate Group, Inc. constructed 5,255 linear feet of 36-inch diameter pipe and
4,771 linear feet of 30-inch diameter pipe sewer main for the McKelvey -Cole Tract. The offsite sewer extension will serve a calculated basin area
of 5,009.46 acres.
The qualified costs used to establish this per acre charge are outlined below:
Engineering $241,960.00
Developer Construction Costs $2,714,908.20
Total $2,956,868.20
The net acreage of the calculated sewer basin is 5,009.46 acres, which is depicted on the drainage map attached to this communication. By
dividing the costs above by the number of acres in the sewer basin, the per -acre charge for the sewer extension for the McKelvey -Cole Tract is
$590.26 per acre.
Forestar (USA) Real Estate Group, Inc. is eligible to be reimbursed the total qualified costs identified in this communication. The collection period
for the developer shall be 20 years or until the maximal reimbursable amount has been received, whichever comes first.
A per acre charge shall be assessed on each acre within the calculated sewer basin area served by a sewer approach main or by a sewer main
constructed under a City initiated project, without exclusion or reduction
The wastewater collection main is located in the City's Extraterritorial Jurisdiction and Council District 7.
A Form 1295 is not required because: This M&C does not request approval of a contract with a business entity.
FISCAL INFORMATION / CERTIFICATION:
The Director of Finance certifies that upon approval of the above recommendation and establishment of the charge, funds will be deposited into
the Water & Sewer Fund. The Water Department (and Financial Management Services) is responsible for the collection and deposit of funds due
to the City.
