INTRODUCTION
The enclosed material provides for City Council acceptance of the public improvements
that the developers, E.K.M. LLC, have recently completed in Sky Blue Estates #2
Subdivision.
BACKGROUND
As a condition of subdivision plat approval through Resolution No. 61-18, the developer
of Sky Blue Estates #2 Subdivision was required to install certain public improvements
including street paving with curb, sanitary sewer main, watermain, storm sewers and
catch basins, street lighting, fiber optic conduit, and storm water detention facilities and
to dedicate said improvements to the City upon completion.
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.
On December 18, 2020, the owners requested City's acceptance of the improvements
in Sky Blue Estates #2 Subdivision. Upon inspection by the City, it has been determined
that the public improvements required by Resolution 61-18, except for storm water
detention facilities, 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 public improvements,
except for storm water detention facilities, as described above. Maintenance
guarantees for said public improvements shall be provided by the owners, E.K.M. LLC,
for a period of two (2) years from the date of acceptance by City Council.
ACTION TO BE TAKEN
The City Council is requested to adopt the attached resolution accepting the public
improvements in Sky Blue Estates #2 Subdivision.
