Van Milligen, City Manager FROM: Gus Psihoyos, City Engineer SUBJECT: Acceptance of Stormwater Detention Facilities in Eagle Valley Subdivision DATE: July 8, 2012 INTRODUCTION The enclosed material provides for City Council acceptance of the detention facilities that the developer, Fondell Excavating, Inc., has completed in Eagle Valley Subdivision in the City of Dubuque, Iowa. BACKGROUND As a condition of subdivision plat approval through Resolution Nos. 434 -05, 479 -04, and 293- 03, the developer of Eagle Valley Subdivision was required to install certain improvements including street paving with curb, sanitary sewer main, watermain, storm sewer and catch basins, boulevard street lighting, and storm water detention facilities, and to dedicate these improvements to the City upon completion. All public improvements, except the detention facilities, were accepted on December 15, 2008 by Resolution No. 437 -08. The detention facilities were designed to capture runoff from abutting property to the north, now being developed as Sky Blue Estates. DISCUSSION The Subdivision Ordinance requires that upon completion of 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. In June, 2012, Fondell Excavating, Inc. requested the City's acceptance of the detention facilities in Eagle Valley Subdivision. Upon inspection by the City, it has been determined that all the detention facilities required by Resolution Nos. 434 -05, 479 -04, and 293 -03 have been completed in accordance with plans approved by the City Council and in conformance with City specifications. Maintenance of the detention facility would become the responsibility of the City with the costs for same being assessed to the property owners within Eagle Valley Subdivision and Sky Blue Estates, an abutting development to the north, since a portion of Sky Blue Estates will drain to the detention facilities. The stormwater detention facilities were constructed on Lot G of Eagle Valley Subdivision and dedicated on the Final Plat thereof. RECOMMENDATION I would, therefore, recommend that the City Council accept the stormwater detention facilities and Lot G of Eagle Valley Subdivision. Maintenance of the facilities will be the responsibility of the City which will assess said costs to the property owners in Eagle Valley Subdivision and a portion of Sky Blue Estates. ACTION TO BE TAKEN The City Council is requested to adopt the attached resolution accepting the stormwater detention facilities in Eagle Valley Subdivision and accept the dedication of Lot G Eagle Valley Subdivision.
