The systems on the development's site are being extended to its south property line, the north right-of-way line of Hughes Road. 0:\agenda\2006\12-19-06\Hughes Rd Utilities Dev Contract Memo To serve the properties on the south side of Hughes, both systems must be extended across the roadway and to the west to reach the low point in the area. This extension is solely the cost of the City and not of the developer. The City Staff has proposed to the developer to combine the projects to better coordinate the two construction efforts with a single contractor. The developer cost for the onsite improvements are estimated to be $170,351.00. The City costs for the offsite improvements in the Hughes Road right-of-way are estimated to be $46,365.85. The total project will be undertaken by the developer and his contractor and inspected by the City. Payment of the City's share of the total project cost will be made at the completion and acceptance of the project. Staff recommends approval.
