BACKGROUND As a condition of subdivision plat approval through Resolution No. 546-01, the developer of Jaeger Heights Subdivision No. 2 - Phase 3 was required to install certain improvements including street paving, storm sewer, sanitary sewer, watermain and street lighting, and to dedicate the improvements to the City upon completion. The developer of Jaeger Heights Subdivision No. 2 - Phase 3, Lloyd S.

DISCUSSION The Subdivision Ordinance requires that upon completion of all the required public improvements, the subdivider shall notify the City in writing of the completion of the improvements, requesting that the City either approve or reject the acceptance of the improvements, together with a statement of reasons for any rejection.

Upon a recent inspection by the City, it has been determined that all of the public improvements required by Resolution No. 546-01 have been completed in accordance with plans approved by the City Council and in conformance with City specifications. RECOMMENDATION I would therefore recommend that the City Council accept the improvements. Maintenance of said improvements shall be the responsibility of the contractor, Horsfield Construction, and owner, Lloyd S. Gudenkauf, for a period of two years from the date of acceptance by the City Council. The amount of the inspection fee refund would total $5,692.95.
