CC Meeting Minutes Page two September 28, 1988 special use permit that would be required with the above amendment. Discussion of proposed Hardwood Pond Estates development. Discussion of over sizing of streets. Brian Drive is proposed to be a 9 ton versus a 7 ton street. Per City Planner, Andrew Mack, the street is classified as a minor arterial. City Engineer, John Stewart, advised that the estimated extra cost for the over sizing of the street is $9,520. He also advised that the estimated extra cost for over sizing of watermains is $11,700. Stewart and Mack agreed that a 9 ton design would be necessary on Brian Drive in this development, as proposed development from the north is expected to filter down to this street. This traffic would include heavier vehicles, such as school buses, garbage trucks, etc. Council discussed City ability to finance over sizing cost absorbtion. Clerk noted that no City funds were available at this time. She also noted that the Tax Increment Financing (TIF) monies from the Center Oaks II development would not be available until 1989, and those monies could only be used in connection with the municipal water system. The TIF monies from the L'Allier Estates II development would not be available until 1990, Clerk noted that these monies could be used for projects such as over sizing of streets and watermains, and possibly for sidewalks. Gerry Rehbein felt the City should take monies from the Sanitary Sewer fund and the Municipal Water fund to finance over sizing of the street. Clerk advised that the Sanitary Sewer fund is for sanitary sewer projects, and that currently a large amount of funds are not available in this account. Clerk also noted that all monies collected for the Municipal Water fund, from the developer, currently goes to making bond payments for the start up of the system. Motion by Burgstahler, second by Fritchie to adopt Resolution #88-58 adopting the City policy that all costs associated with collector streets or minor collector/arterial streets that are to run through a new development shall be the responsibility of the developer, motion carried unanimously. Motion by Burgstahler, second by Fritchie to adopt Resolution #88-59 adopting the City Policy that the materials cost differential between a six inch pipe and an eight inch pipe, with regard to an oversized watermain, shall be funded by the City through the municipal water improvement accounts, motion carried unanimously.
