MEMO <br /> DATE : May 19, 1999 <br /> TO : Honorable Mayor and Council <br /> FROM : Jim March <br /> RE : Utility extension through the Industrial Park <br /> A request has been made to ask the City to place trunk utilities through the Industrial Park with <br /> the excess funds that were received from assessments on the 20th Avenue sewer and water <br /> project. After the assessments were certified, a number of field changes by HR Green were <br /> enacted that reduced the cost of the overall project. I have asked Tom Peterson to review these <br /> cost savings and report his findings at the Council meeting. • <br /> The request has been made to install trunk water and sewer utilities east of 20th Avenue into the <br /> Industrial Park north of the proposed Royal Oaks Industrial Park. This utility extension would <br /> benefit the three lots on the north end of the Royal Oaks Industrial Park as well as much of Gerald <br /> Rehbein's undeveloped property. No utility stubs would be proposed to be paid for by the City. <br /> Mr. Gerald Rehbein and the Royal Oaks developers have agreed to each pay 50% of the cost of <br /> street, storm sewer and curb and gutter construction on the proposed "street b" of the Royal Oaks <br /> Industrial Park. <br /> The City would be under no obligation to extend these utilities. The overall benefit to the City <br /> would be the immediate availability of additional areas of vacant industrial property that is served <br /> with water /sewer and road access. In the competitive reality of business recruitment, this would <br /> be an added enticement for potential new Centerville businesses. This item will be more fully <br /> explained through the use of visuals at the Council meeting. <br />
