_ Pred Celia October 18, 1978 � � � Page Two (C�cle Shop) Also discusse3 at the meeting was the need for the drainage pians, Those plans were received October 5 and approved caith minor corrections on October 9, That approval �aas verbally passed on to the Building Department October 10, During one of three short meetinys with t•fel Hoezle, I received a package from him containing Building Department papers that were returned to the Buildinq Department. [dr, Hoezle also discussed the posaibi ty of putting up a bond for the Evergreen Way Improvement rather than doing the improvement immediately. The disadvantages wEre discussed which i.ncluded: l. 4ihatever wa;: done to improve the frontage erould need to be redone in the future, 2, Bxtra cost due to installing ext.ruded curb now and replacing it later, and 3. That the possibility of posting a bond did not fit with Council's direction of April 12, 1978, whi.ch was to require all new development; �o install t}:e improvement. (This has been previously checked with Joe K, to verify that specific point, �urther.; fa:lcre to enforce that direction orill expose the �ity to litigation from developers that were requi=ed to put in the i.mprovement immediately. I have rec.:ived 7 previous "threats" on this point� i.e, "[Se'll do it but x•e bet*..er not see any new improveraents yoing in without it or ..." Or. October 10 the Building Department w,�s verbally advised t}iat Public i•lorl;s review was complete and that tY�e only special requirement was compl_.ance with Evergreen [vay Improvement. Octot�er 11, .Art Sl;otdahl, owner of the Cycle Shop development and member of the New Frontier Bank Board, aFpeared before City Council and testified on an or.dinan�e which puts many oi the same Ev2rgreen Way type requirements on all new developments. He used the Cycle Shop developmer.t as an example and stated that �e should be allowed to put up a bond because the City didn't knew �ohst they were going to do on Evergreen Way, The ordinance for other streets does have a�rovision for putting up a bond, Judy Baker commented in facor but no other mention was made, Contrarv to Skotdahl's statement; EVergreen Way Street Improvement is definite and has been adopted ny Council. Any drainage put in will not interfere with the �idewalks,Curbs and gutters required of present developers. If there were any damages to those improvelnents, the correction �oocild be the responsibility of the City or conYsactor, not back to the landowne�:. An L.I.D, for sidewalk�; would not include property oomers wiLh exisYing sidewalks because State law requires specific ber,efit before properties couid be assessed,
