In exchange for the <br />completion, and acceptance by the City of Arden Hills, of these road improvements by this date, <br />encumbrances of the westerly two lots over the easterly two lots go away, allowing construction <br />to begin on the easterly two lots. <br /> <br />Issne <br /> <br />A letter from City Engineer Brown to City Administrator Lynch recommends that the City not <br />accept road improvements by the developer in their current condition. <br /> <br />Discussion <br /> <br />City Attorney Filla has been briefed on this situation. Mr. Rekuski, representing the developer is <br />anxious to proceed with construction on the two easterly (Lexington Avenue) lots. Both Mr. <br />Rekuski and Mr. Pilla are expected to be available for Council comments or questions. One <br />possible option is to require the developer to post a $10,000 performance bond in favor of the <br />City of Arden Hills to ensure completion ofthe road improvements. The developer would then <br />be allowed to begin construction activities on the easterly two lots. <br /> <br />Other Concerns <br /> <br />City Attorney Pilla has raised the issue of traffic coming from north of the new cul-de-sac and <br />the City's intent to not maintain this access (e.g., during the snow season). Such access is <br />currently over private property. <br />
