dOl:umonlS wm ll> r,f1~llanguag, ShOWing that monlos would bo
paid up tronlto th, city tor th, InslallJUon of a sldowalk along Rohrot
Road And tho dlffmnc, M~n up fronting thost funds and
pUlting thost funds In tSCrow, WhiCh Is a pra<UCt thal Wf have also
Utill:td, was that Il did nol afft<ltht sal, of lots WIthin tht
dmlopmtnlon tht ~nd.1ry mortgagt marktt And this particular
accommodation was mado at tho roquO$lof tho dovtlof*r and th, P/Z
CommiSSion conceded to that particular accommodation but felt
strongly about the nW<! tor a sldowall: along Rohrot Road. PartiCUlarly
In anticipation that Rohrot Road was gOing to bo Improvt<! p'rhap5 In
th, noar futuro. This particular provision would also ,>>:USt pooontial
proptrty ownm In that area from tholnslallation of that sidewalk
With tht undmlandlng that the legal documents Wfro roflt<ting thal
partiCUlar proVision but we understand that negotiations have brokon
down With regard to that As a result It Is tho slaff's recommendation
that this parUcUlJr loom bo deferred to tho August 20 mttUng In
order to allow rtsOlution of that parUcular dlffmnco,
McO/ Okay. Did somtono want to respond to that request
Chuck MUII,n/! would tak,lssue With a COupl, of things that Monica said.
But maybo ! would trame the Issue a UtUo dlfferenuy, Typically, as
you know, your tnforctmtnt mt<hanlsm for sldowalks Is tho
o<<upancy ptrml~ tho subdividers agrttmtnt crta~ a Uon on tho
proptrUts and at such timo that tho homots bull~ tho sldowalk Is
typically Installid and tIlat Is Whon it Is Inspectod and thosldowalk

Road. Tht gradt for Which has boon anticlpatod toro! know ttn yoars,

With tho advent of utilization of socondary mortgago mOMY that we
can't roly on tho ffirow that tho city hold bocau$O It won't produco a
rolea$O from tho City, Mr, Brmrman did, In fact, agr.. WIth a

estimaOOd that cost at roughly ",60a squaro loot Itls my
understanding that thO englnetrS will tell you that It may very ~II
cost the city $4,00 a square loot \l you Install It sometime In the
future. It wouldn't cost us that today. We know what It would cost us
today but we can't put It In today oocauso you haven't established
your grade. You lace this same Issue on Gallway Hills, There, as I
rocall, the Interchange that took place, you docldtd not to require the
developer to Install the sidewall:. oocau~ you couldn't tell the
developer when the sidewall:. would be put In, I don't think you can
toll the developer here when It will be put In, Everybody agretS that
Rohret Road Is going to be upgradtd at some point In time. I don't
know whether It Is In the budget In the Immediate future. There Is
some risk to simply giving the money to the city now. I am not sure
the city can sign an agretment that would bind future councils not to
come back I1nd aS5&S' this cost against the lot owners that have bOught
this Improvement In the future, It ~ms to me that the city always
has that rlghl SO our suggesUon, I gUes1,ls that either as the
documents now refloct that you simply waive the requirement that
we put the sidewalk In on Rohret Road, Dtal with the Issue pollUcally
when you are prepartd to deal with Il That's when the grade Is
. establlshtd or, In the alOOrnaUve, allow us to put up what It would cost
us to build the sidewall:. today, Which we are prepartd to dO,
courtney I Tell me one more-what Is the problem with the escrows now,
Mullenl The escrow Is fine If you could put the sidewalk In, These lots will
be ready for development lor sale next year, A houso gets built along
Rohret Road next year, the grade sUIl hasn't betn established, the
\ agr*ment creat09 a Ilen for the sidewalk which the city will not
releasHv&n If the escrow Is put up, SO that Is a proporty that can't
be flnanctd to the S&Condary mortgage market because It's got that
technical city lion on It
Larson/ Why Is the city not able to release the lien \l we have the money,
Gentry/In this case, the homeownef5 have the money.
Mullenl Randy's quesUon Is a general one, It Is city pollcy, Randy, that the
city simply will not releaso the lien,
Courtney II thought we did release some.
Gentry / We have released Ilens on storm waOOr management We transler
the lien to the escrow, Sidewalks we have not I have never.w& have
never been asked,

th~ domands como ~fore you, Who IS gOing to pay for It Should
the genml tax payers or tho dmlo~r, That's tM baSIC question
Larson/Isn't Chuck S3ylng that tho propYrty ownor adlacont to tho
sidewalks or the dmlo~r Is the Issue,
Franklin/ That comes back to an as*ssment which then you have an
as~ment Maring and ~ple obje<t and typically tM council has
sald-okay, ~ will pay part of It So It Is tile general tax payors,
Larson/It doesn't come up very often for obvious pollUcal reasons,
Franklin/ You have had sld&walk as~monts that have fall~ enUrely
be<au,. ~ple have obje<OO<! to tho fact that they WIlro going to bIl
as~,
Larson! Thoy were either gOing to pay for price of the sidewalk In tholr lot
expen,. or they are gOing to pay for It through their asstSSmenl
They're paying for It either up front or the end, either way,
Franklin! Presumably, yes,
Larson! Unless ~ de<lde just to have the general taxpayers pay for It
which. I won't mako any pr~lcUons about futuro bravery of councils.
Franklin! No, And I don't think as ChUCk has IndlcaOO<! that you can put In
within thelogal papers that that Is going to.wllI definitely bind the
future as far as an asmsment goos be<au,. of tho pollUcal naturo of
an assossment procHdlng.
Larson! And you are dlsUngulshlng Gallway Hili by the usage or the demand
of the sidewalks and the umlng.
Franklin! I think, ~rsonally.m I think the same thing should havo hap~ned
on Gallway 1ll1I. The provision should havelmn made for sidewalks
at that Ume, It was a decision not to. I think with Rohret Road, given
tho demands that you aro hearing for Southwest Estat&s and Hunter
Run residents, that ~ are going to have more of an ImperaUve to
Improve Rohret Road sooner than maybllthe Melrose Ave. expansion.
Larson! Doos anyone remembllr Gallway Hills as oolng this big of an Issue, I
don't remembor this bolng a broadly discussed Issue,
Kubby! We talked about It a lot About how ~ could get the Realtors to
make sure property owners who are buying whero ~ would bo
putUng sidewalks on would know that that was going to hap~n,
Moon! That was that discussIon, There was discussion about the nHd
to put the sidewalks Immediately and I think there was some
senUment toward that or at least escrowing the funds, What actually
r.ame about was that there was an agreement within the legal
documents Ulat at a minimum the property owners within that area

would agr~ not to 00 concernl!d or thty would waive Utelr right to
obl~ting to a posSible as~menl
Larson! That Is a litUe different ketUe of fish Uten, If Ute pro~rty ownors
Involved agret not 0 pro~st Ute a$~monl
Moen! From a practical point of view, Utat Is prObably not a reasonablo
al~rnative,
Larson! Dotsn't bind Utem on how Utey vo~ on future council elKtions
Moen! That ~ distinguish Utls particular subdivision from Gallway Hills and
Utat there Is already existing development to the \iHSt that would bt
reliant on tha~
Nov! The way I understand this. the offer to deposit a certain amount ot
money Is not acceptable to somebody on the staff,
Moen! The Is corr~t The city originally suggost(od that $3,00 a square foot
be chargtd for this particular sidewalk. At a minimum tho city \l,\)uld
accept no 1m Utan $2,25 at Utls particular Ume.
Larson/ What do ~ Utlnk Ute current cost Is, Do ~ agr~ with Chuck
Mullen as to what the current cost Is,
Fosse/ No, We have nover seen sldowalk In city prol~ts that low of price.
TM last sidewalk ~ put In on a project of this siZe was on the stWtr
projects In 1939 and Utat came In at $2.50 per square fool And ~
are hoping It ~ get $2,25 per square foot Wt will earn somo In~rost
on It and have enough to do It when Ute Ume comos,
Kubby / Did you come In at the beginning, Chuck, at lo~r Utan $1.65 We
have already come down from $3.00 to $2.25.
MUllen/ We came In at what It cost us the last Umo ~ did sidewalks.
Courtnoy / You nood to got tho nama of his contractor.
Fosst/ Part of the duroronce.~ require Insurance, qul~ a bit ot Insurance,
We require bonding. Wo also require guarant&t on tho product
McD/ So that automaUcally cost us more than with someono elso,
Fosse/It Is sUII cMaper for Uto property owner than It ~ ~relO a~s It
at a la~r da~ as assossment charges pile up qUICkly.
Kubby! What doos Ute staff Utlnlt will happen in thr~ ~ks, What kind of
negoUaUon can go on. Can Wt sUck to our 12,25 and.
Nov /1 think we ought to go for 12.50,
Franklin/ We have to get the legal papers In order,
Larson/I don't think this Is necessarily Ute way It should be handltd Is tor
councils to sit up Mre and deba~.to negoUa~ the thing.
Franklin/ That Is why ~ suggost(od deterral to ~ It we couldn't negoUa~
turther.
Kubby / Lot's do that

1I0rowII Will Withdraw my ~ond
Ambr II Will Withdraw tho motion,
Horowl Mm for doferral until Aug, 20
1I0vl s.cond tho motion todofor,
Maco Bravermanl My main objecUon Is that mryono h~ro trl&S to hold
doWll prtcos, Evory damn Ume ~ do I~ It doesn't ~m Uke much
This Is only gOing to add another S 1.50 to the lol Where Is the
cooperation of trying to k~p th~ costs In 11M. It Isn't this, It Is the
comblnaUon of wlIat ~ have had to do In this particular subdivision.
And It lust adds up, If ~ don't got any cooperation or understanding
from staff and you then ~ havo no one to blamo oxcopt tho
admlnlstration....to k~p th&so costs dOWll, The difference that ~ are
biking about Is s.65, Is worth IItUe, It doesn't mean a damn thing. But
wlI~re Is this f~lIng of cooperaUon In trying to k~p th&se costs doWll.
You talk a good game but wlIat m you as memoors repr&Senting this
community doing to try to help k~p the costs doWll.
Kubby I Gone from S3,00 to S2.25.
Bravermanl No, That Is not the qu&sUon, It Is like my Wife going to a sale
and saying SOmething costs $4.50 and gets It for $2,25 wlIen she could
hm gottfn It for $ 1,60. What kind of argument Is thal Hore I am
giving you costs that ~re done Within the last 30 days and I am
WilUng to put them In ba~ upon this.
Kubbyl Btcauso It would be silly to put up sidewalks, It Is like thoarmy.
They do that They put In a sidewalk and In thr~ weoks latfr or two
years latfr thoy tfar It up and there Is all that oMrgy and time and
dlsrupUon of peoplo's yards tWico Instfad of onco. It doesn't mako
Itnso,
BraYirmanl That makes Itnlt, rlghl Excopt you don't know the full
background of this. I also had to put In a thirty foot extra construction
oasement that Implngts on Individuals there unUI you got that
sidewalk or the road done,
Kubby I So they are nor planUng you mean,
Bravermanl You also got a cloud on those lots becauso you art' saying you
need another U1lrty foot to oxpand to wlIatfver you want to do out
U1oro, You know It Is not lust U1at Issuo. It IsUle combination of

undorstand that smral 0/ the poople that arelntmstod In

Ambr/ The Investors are poople that art gOing to live there eventually,
Moonl Thalls Simply hearsay.
Courtney I Thero are some hOme bUlldm WIlo wore part 01 that partnership

aroas are In terms 01 grades or ravines or wooded areas,..and here Is a

I 1001 real uncomlortable that we are continuing to SOt more
developments Without those environmental regulations on our
pending IIsl
Horow/l normally would han agreed With you except In this cast I think It
Is all relevant bocauso we didn't get the road put through Irom Flrsl
Ave to Seventh Ave WIllch would have really degrodatod the area. I
guess I have lust kind 01 compromlsod. Mr. Mayor I would like to ask
Karin one point on thiS that Is relative, That Is. I think tho Idea IS
very creative In terms 01 trading storm water areas. I am stili
concerned about area storm water management and not this two acre
triggering this storm water management Is this a concept that you
are working up In terms 01 ar&a.looklng at WIlole area In terms 01
storm water managemenl
Frankllnl The public works depl was looking at the storm water
management ordinance and revisions to that No-our deptls not But
It Is not to say that It Is not something that we could work With pUblic
works on It You have done some work already haven't you, An
evaluation 01 our system as It Is now

Horowl Yos, I ~ndmd, The memo rrom Ms, Gentry, July 25th, the
rormula that ~ charge ror hours In exctss or the num~r, In other
~rds, I was Interosted In th~ rormula and WIly ~ put a 99 ym
terms or y~ars In th~ agr*mtnt Do wt hm any say In this or was
this som~thlng that th~ Holiday Inn gm us,
Gtntry I W. ntgoUated It I think a term or years Is much ~lter than
compl~tely optn ended as It was btror~. RTC was looking down th~
road, obviously a long W3ya, and It Is a standard term or Ita~. this
pracUcally turns It Into a Ita~, I think, Thtrt Is a provision to
protect th~ city In th~ ~v~nt or d~rault W~ can terminate, And th~
prior agr*m~nt th~rt was no provision WIlat so mr ror any pilrty to
terminate, I mean It lust wtnt on ad InClnltum WIllch Is wor~ than
this,
1I0rowl They hav~ agr*<! to this ror good and reasonabl~ cau~.th~
termlnaUon claust,
Gtntry I Yos they did, The rormula ror the om 720,000 hours.they pily the
rogular rate, Isn't that rlgh~ Don,
They pily tho rogular rate that any other customer pilYs once they
hm r~ached their malt num~r,
Horow/Okay, Thank you v~ry much,
Kubbyll was wondering about tho nln~ c~nts an hOur, That s*ms IIk~ a
r~ally good d~al. And that Is WIlat It was btror~,
a~ntry I That Is WIlat It Is now.
Courtney I Undmtand that they pay that 24 hours a day WIlothor they u~
them or nol
Nov I as any othor ptrmlt holder.
a~ntry I W~ ar~ obviously giving them a S\'JOet deal, Th~y can't runcUon
Without parking,
Ambr I Th~r~ Is an av~, tr you ar~ In th~r~ 24 hours a day, A monthly
sUcker Is thlrtHn c~nls an hour,
a~ntry I Yos, It Is $40 a month, $50 ror th~ oth~r ramp, TM RTC InlUally
started out wanUng to get rid or that In oxcoss or 720,000 hour
provision and wt said no, It W3S not ntgoUable.
Kubby I PutUng the clause In about tr wt tear down the ramps, ~lImlnate the
