Old Mill Estates <br /> <br />Administrator Statz stated that three different developers are requesting some level of reduction in their <br />securities. He stated that Rehbein Commercial installed Michaud Way near NorBella Senior Living and <br />Kwik Trip. He also stated that all punch list items have been addressed, that they have received a full <br />release of escrow from Rice Creek Watershed District and the two-year warranty on the project was to <br />expire on July 12, 2024, with no warranty issues being identified and staff would be recommending a full <br />release of the escrow. <br /> <br />Administrator Statz stated the same existed for the Rehbein Industrial/Sutton Transport project in that they <br />st <br />have completed an extension of Fairview Street from a cul de sac to being connected to 21 Avenue. He <br />also stated that utility improvements were made associated with both Sutton Transport and Amazon <br />developments. He also stated that all punch list items had been addressed along with Rice Creek <br />Watershed District releasing their escrow along with the two-year warranty on the project was to also <br />expire on July 12, 2024, with no warranty issues being identified and staff would be recommending a full <br />release of the escrow. <br /> <br />Administrator Statz stated that Old Mill Estates has been through several years of punch list items with <br />just a handful remaining along with ensuring that their other permits are finalized. He also stated that the <br />last permit is the RCWD permit which involves numerous items, but mainly checking of the stormwater <br />infrastructure ensuring that the pipes, catch basins and stormwater ponds were installed correctly. He <br />stated that they required a bathymetric survey to check depth, etc. and they all checked out. He stated that <br />it could cost thousands of dollars if it did not pass, and it would then need to be corrected by the developer <br />along with a large risk for them. He stated that the Wetland Permit is also a large issue, and it covers what <br />they said they were going to impact was really what they impacted, and he described wetland credits. <br />Administrator Statz stated that he has reviewed the data and that they are very close a few dozen square <br />feet costing just a few thousand in banked credit. He stated that staff would be recommending that their <br />current escrow be released to a level of $20,000 with the belief that the city would retain enough money <br />to allow for items no being completed pertaining to the Wetland Permit. He clarified that it would be <br />releasing the existing Letter of Credit, and the developer could either issue a new Letter of Credit in the <br />amount of $20,000 or provide a cash deposit. He stated that he contained the language of the proposed <br />motion in the Staff memorandum to allow Staff to release the remaining $20,000 escrow upon the release <br />of the Wetland Permit escrow by RCWD. <br /> <br />Council Member Mosher asked about the bike path and how it turned out. Administrator Statz stated that <br />it was moved approximately 4’ and paid for by the abutting property owner and in areas narrower than 6’. <br />Council Member Mosher asked how snow removal was completed, and Administrator Statz stated that <br />the trucks handled the clearing appropriately and without issues. <br /> <br />Page 4 of 6 <br /> <br /> <br />
