The City’s current policy is that the first developer is responsible for a 15 ½ foot urban section on the developing side of the roadway and a 12 foot rural siding on the undeveloped side of the roady. In addition, it was not known back in 2004 that there would need to be significant grade changes to the roadbed to bring it up to R-22/6th Street which would be above and beyond what would typically be required of a developer. Based upon the approved construction drawings Hubbell has determined that the additional costs are approximately $350,000 greater than what was contemplated as their responsibility back in 2004. The proposed development agreement contemplates that Hubbell Realty will be responsible for paving a full urban section on the north side of the street and a rural section on the south side of the street from the eastern boundary of the Glynn Village Development to approximately Warrior Lane. The City will be responsible for paving from approximately Warrior Lane to the current City project that is under construction which is approximately 1,444 linear feet. This additional work contemplated by the City would be considered a change order to our current project under construction and would cost the City an additional $300,000 to complete. The proposed development agreement construct a full also includes an offer to purchase from the City the approximately 9 acre parcel owned by the City on the south side of Westown Parkway that was recently acquired by the School District. Pending approval of the development agreement, it is contemplated that the City would at a future date in the near future consider the offer to purchase the property from the City following publishing of appropriate notice and holding a public hearing.
