<br />. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />2006 PMP Update <br />4/J 3/2006 <br />Page 3 <br /> <br />. The Beach Club is a non-profit organization with a minimal operating budget. <br />· The Beach Club property was purchased as two parcels frolll the previous Jandowner(s). <br />. TIlCre are 60-70 parties who are eligible to be members; however, there are currently only <br />about 50 members in the Beach Club. Eligible members are essentially residents ofthe <br />2006 PMP neighborhood, along with a few homes along Old Snelling. <br /> <br />One of the parcels owned by the Beach Club is predominantly a wetland area. A City owned <br />and operated Lift Station (#4) is currently locatcd within this area, and two sedimentation <br />ponds are proposed for this area in conjunction with the project. Once land has been <br />delineated as a wetland area, restrictions are imposed and uses of the area become limited. <br /> <br />The second parcel owned by the Beach Club is the island. While this parcel has not been <br />delineated as wetland, there is uncertainty whether the area is developable. Based on the <br />City's shoreline setback requiremcnt it appears there would be area on which to develop, <br />however, the DNR or othcr govell1ing agencies may have stricter rcquirements. Also, the <br />soils have not been evaluated for constructability. <br /> <br />While the Beach Club owned parcels may not be developable, staff does feel that the <br />improvement project does benefit their property. The island parcel has a paved access to <br />Arden Place, and the island is used for rcneational purposes by members. Staff suggests that <br />Council consider assessing thc Beach Club an equivalent of one or two units. <br /> <br />Citv owned parcel <br />The City owns one parccl in the Ridgewood Neighborhood, along Ridgewood Road. In the <br />past, City owned parcels have been included when calculating the assessment rate. <br /> <br />CONCLUSION <br /> <br />TIle following lists the assessment rates per unit based on the updated cost estimate and the <br />number of units assessed. <br /> <br />Numpcr of assessed units <br />62 <br />63 <br />64 <br />65 <br /> <br />AssCs.sJIlcJ1lP..crunit <br />$9,215.64 <br />$9,069,36 <br />$8,927.65 <br />$8,790.30 <br /> <br />In the feasibility report, the assessment ratc f,x 62 assessed units was approximately $8,800. <br /> <br />Staff is requesting guidance from Council as to how the above mentioned parcels should be <br />incorporated into the final assessment rolL <br />
