January 2, 1987 as submitted. Motion carried unanimously. (4-0) <br /> Business from 'Floor <br /> None. <br /> EdRewater Estates - Request to Allow Occupancy Prior to ReceivinR FlowaRe <br /> Easement <br /> Council was referred to memorandum from Planner Miller (1-8-87), explaining the <br /> certificate of occupancy for the apartment building under construction at <br /> Edgewater Estates should not be issued until a recordable consent agreement is <br /> obtained from the US Fish and Wildlife Service to allow construction on the <br /> flowage easement which encumbers lots 6, 7 and 8 of block 1. <br /> Gerald McGuire, owner of the development and his attorney, Tom Zappia, were <br /> present to answer any questions from Council. <br /> Mayor Woodburn reviewed the City's concerns relative to Lot 7; assurance that <br /> the special assessments for lot 7 may be spread to the other lots in the <br /> subdivision if the consent agreement is not received by the date of the <br /> assessment hearing, and, assurance that lot 7, if not buildable, will be <br /> maintained ,by the property owner in the future. <br /> Hicks noted that McGuire had shown a preference for the Planner's first <br /> alternative, in the event the consent agreement is not obtained, of <br /> consolidating lot 7 with lot 9 of block 1 (townhouse development lot) and <br /> having it remain as permanent open space. He suggested the second alternative <br />. of withholding the sale of lots 6 and 8 until consent agreement is received and <br /> if the agreement cannot be obtained, lot 7 could be split and consolidated with <br /> adjacent lots 6 and 8. Hicks stated the second alternative appears to be better <br /> for maintenance purposes and would be more attractive in the development. <br /> McGuire, after discussion with Zappia, agreed with Hicks that the second <br /> alternative would be preferable if the consent agreement is not obtained. <br /> Hicks asked if lots 6 and 8 had been sold, and if development of those lots <br /> would precede the townhouse development. He suggested the lot split could be <br /> attached as a requirement upon sale of lots 6 and 8 if the developer bas the <br /> opportunity to sell them before obtaining the consent agreement. <br /> Zappia stated they have not been sold, but could be prior to development of the <br /> townhouses. He agreed with Hick's suggestion and questioned if the <br />. consolidation/split could be tied to the sale of the latter lot, being either 6 <br /> or 8, imposing less restriction on the sale of the lots. <br /> Mayor Woodburn questioned if that would require an agreement to be drafted by <br /> Zappia. <br /> _L. <br />
