. . . City Council Minutes March 3, 1993 Page 2 need to have more information in order to establish a policy on how to determine the value of park land that is dedicated to the City. The resolution for approval of the final plat indicates that park dedication fees will be paid for the 76 newly created lots minus the dollar amount credited for land for trails in an amount to be determined by the City Council. The City Council decided to wait until a future meeting to determine the amount to be credited for the trail land. Stephen Rohlf reviewed issues raised by the developer relating to up-front fees for the sealcoating and park dedication requirements and the City requirement for a 100% Letter of Credit for the public improvements. The Building and Zoning Administrator indicated that the resolution reflects current City policy, but includes a phrase that allows for an adjustment with this plat if the currently City policy is changed before the time of recording the plat. The issue of up-front fees and a 100% Letter of Credit are issues that relate to all City development projects and plats and not only to the Heritage Landing proposal. The City Council indicated no problems or concerns with the location of model homes within this plat and the timing of issuing building permits for these model homes as outlined in the 2/24/93 memo. Stephen indicated that the development plan would be required to be approved by staff prior to the issuance of any building permits. Also, it was indicated that the names of a few streets will be changed and that an easement on the southern boundary of the plat will be required and reflected on the final plat.

Consider Feasibility Study for Heritage Landing The City Engineer, Terry Maurer, reviewed the feasibility study for the Heritage Landing proposal dated February, 1993. It was indicated that the issue of providing sewer and water internally to this plat is relatively simple, but that the other issue of how to get the water and sewer to the plat is more complicated. In this regard, Terry indicated that it is his recommendation that the most appropriate alignment for providing sewer and water into this plat, from a purely engineering point-of-view, is down Fresno Street. Regarding the utilities alignment, Terry reviewed other options such as going down County Road 30 and going through the Lakoduk property. Water and sewer extensions need to be made from the trunk system that is currently in the southern part of the City Hall property. The council was in general agreement that Fresno Street was the best alignment for the extension of utilities to the Heritage Landing plat. The City Council reviewed the options for the property owners along Fresno Street in terms of what costs they would have to assume when this project takes place. Three options are laid out in the 2/19/93 memo from the City Engineer on this issue. The options include: 1)
