RECOMMENDED CITY COUNCIL ACTION:
• Approval of the Resolution
ITEM SUMMARY:
• This Resolution authorizes the City Manager to enter into an Easement Agreement with Poguerosa Investments II, LP (Poguerosa), wherein Poguerosa has agreed to dedicate an approximate 1.142 acres Sanitary Sewer Easement and associated Temporary Construction Easements in exchange for the waiver of future applicable pro rata sanitary sewer charges associated with the City’s construction of the Bloomdale Sanitary Sewer Line Project (Project).
BACKGROUND INFORMATION:
• On December 1, 2014, Council approved a supplemental agreement with Kimley-Horn Associates, Inc., to provide for the alignment, surveying and design of the Project to the area north of Bloomdale Road.
• The Project includes approximately 1,900 linear feet of 8 inch sanitary sewer trunk line and 1,700 linear feet of 12 inch sanitary sewer trunk line.
• The sanitary sewer line will provide service to the sewer basin that includes service for the future Fire Training Facility to be located on City property south of Bloomdale Road.
• The Project is scheduled to commence construction this upcoming October and take approximately seven months to complete.
• Staff contacted Poguerosa regarding the proposed easement. Poguerosa has agreed to dedicate the necessary easements in exchange for the waiver of any future applicable pro rata sewer charges arising out of the City’s construction of the Bloomdale SS within the dedicated easement for the approximately 85-acre tract over which the utility easement is granted.
• Staff recommends authorization of the subject easement agreement, in that the estimated fair market value of the dedicated easements is roughly proportional to the estimated applicable future pro rata sewer charges.
FINANCIAL SUMMARY:
• Funding for this project is included in the Capital Improvements Program WW4366. This is a non-expenditure item.
BOARD OR COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION:
