HomeMy WebLinkAbout7B, Approval of Resolution 2008-021 ~ ~~HILLS MEMORANDUM DATE: March 10, 2008 TO: Mayor and City Council Jim Willis, Interim City Administrator FROM: Stacie Kvilvang, Project Manager SUBJECT: Approval of Resolution No. 2008-02l, Approving Second Amendment to the Preliminary Development Agreement with RRLD, LLC. BACKGROUND On March 30, 2007, the City and RRLD entered into a Preliminary Development Agreement (PDA) outlining the terms and conditions related to the acquisition and redevelopment of a portion of the TCAAP site. The term of the PDA was for one year and will expire on March 30, 2008. DISCUSSION It was anticipated that the City and RRLD would work towards a Master Development Agreement (MDA) during this time frame and that the PDA would be terminated if a MDA was approved, or extended if an MDA was not approved. Since April of 2007, the City and RRLD have been working on various aspects of the project including master planning, infrastructure planning, financial analysis, etc. Over the past eleven (II) months, these aspects have not advanced to the level necessary to begin drafting terms of an MDA and therefore, an extension is needed. Currently, neither party is in default of the PDA and the original budget is still deemed adequate at this time (original budget was $980,000 approximately halfhas been expended to date).
