COUNCIL ACTION FORM
Item #
Date: September 27L 8
SUBJECT: Dayton Road Development Subdivision, Final Plat
BACKGROUND:
The final platting documents for Dayton Road Development Subdivision, which
is located at the northwest corner of Dayton Avenue and Watt Street, have
been submitted for review. The subdivision is made up of three lots, two of
which are currently developed. Carriage House, and Des Moines Asphalt
occupy the developed properties.
The public improvements required of the developer involve extension of an
existing water main and improvement to Watt Street which borders the
development on the south. Past Council policy has provided that streets in
commercial/industrial subdivisions do not need to be paved until such time
as development occurs. Since the Des Moines Asphalt lot is improved, they
have submitted a request for street assessment program and a waiver of
deficiencies to implement a project to pave Watt Street to their west lot
line. The owner of the west lot of the subdivision has submitted a letter
stating that they will support a fair and equitable street assessment
program at the time development occurs on their lot. A bond is being
submitted for the construction of the water main extension within two years.
ALTERNATIVES:
1. Accept the final plat and public improvement documents for Dayton Road
Development Subdivision.
2. Reject the final plat.
MANAGER'S RECOMMENDED ACTION:
It is recommended by the City Manager that the City Council adopt
alternative number one above.
