SUBJECT: Acceptance of Public Improvements in Cedar Ridge Farm Place
No. 7
INTRODUCTION
The enclosed material provides for City Council acceptance of the public
improvements which the developer, Nemmers Cedar Ridge Farm, LP, has
recently completed in Cedar Ridge Farm Place No. 7.
BACKGROUND
As a condition of subdivision plat approval through Resolution No. 489-04, the
developer of Cedar Ridge Farm Place No. 7 was required to install certain
improvements including street paving with curb, sanitary sewer main, watermain,
storm sewers and catch basins, boulevard street lighting, and a stormwater
detention facility 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.
Nemmers Cedar Ridge Farm, LP has requested City's acceptance of the
improvements in Cedar Ridge Farm Place No. 7. Upon inspection by the City, it
has been determined that all of the public improvements required by Resolution
No. 489-04 have been completed in accordance with plans approved by the City
Council and in conformance with City specifications, except for the installation of
one streetlight. Since the location of this light cannot be determined until
additional electrical distribution and lots are laid out, Nemmers Cedar Ridge
Farm, LP, has provided additional securities to cover this cost.
RECOMMENDATION
I would, therefore, recommend that the City Council accept the improvements.
Maintenance of said improvements shall be the responsibility of the contractors,
Connolly Construction, Inc. and River City Paving, and the owner, Nemmers
Cedar Ridge Farm, LP, for a period of two (2) years from the date of acceptance
by the City Council.
ACTION TO BE TAKEN
The City Council is requested to adopt the attached resolution accepting the
improvements.
