INTRODUCTION
The enclosed material provides for City Council acceptance of the public improvements
that the developer, Seippel Road LLC, has recently completed in Seippel Road
Commercial Park Subdivision.
BACKGROUND
As a condition of subdivision plat approval through Resolution No. 473 -05, the
developer of Seippel Road Commercial Park Subdivision was required to install certain
improvements including street paving with curb, sanitary sewer main, watermain, storm
sewers and catch basins, detention facilities, and street lighting and to dedicate these
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 3, 2013, Seippel Road LLC requested City's acceptance of the
improvements in Seippel Road Commercial Park Subdivision. Upon inspection by the
City, it has been determined that the public improvements required by Resolution 473-
05 have been completed, with the exception of the storm water detention facilities and
sanitary sewer main, 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
with the exception of the storm water detention facilities and sanitary sewer main.
Maintenance of said public improvements shall be the responsibility of the owner,
Seippel Road LLC, for a period of two (2) years from the date of acceptance by City
Council. The storm water detention facilities may be accepted after 80 percent of the
lots in the Seippel Road Commercial Park Subdivision are developed and adequate
erosion control measures are installed on the remaining 20 percent of the lots.
ACTION TO BE TAKEN
The City Council is requested to adopt the attached resolution accepting the public
improvements, with the exception of storm water detention facilities and sanitary sewer,
in Seippel Road Commercial Park Subdivision.
