. The following is a transcript of the minutes from August 16, 2001 dealing with the Indian Hills Developers Agreement. John Meyer and
Dorian Davidson were present to discuss the agreement.
Weyrens: Maybe I can say, we've been working with John and Dorian and Joe and John to get the developers agreement and to
work out the issues worked that we talked about. The easement for the east west road connecting. We've got a lot of
that language together. We don't have it all finalized yet. John and Dorian had a chance to review the developer
agreement. Joe just got it late this afternoon, some of their corrections. So any action that you take tonight, we would
just ask that it would be contingent upon final approval from Joe and John.
Weyrens: We are not going to redraft that, and John if you want to address how we're going to do that road.
Meyer: As far as the agreement?
Weyrens: yeh
Meyer: Part of the development agreement, there is an attachment to it, that states that the city has an easement - 12 month
option to attach an easement to that property for a road and there is another 12 month period to get the road
constructed. Based upon the easement, it can be inacted on if that is actually the route coming off of Gumtree.
Hosch: And that easement is right between lots 1 and 2 correct?
Meyer: Yes.
Hosch: That's pretty much the same discussion that we had on the preliminary.
Meyer: It's exactly the same plans, there have been a few alterations, brought up to date on the plans we are in the middle of
the developers agreement, I would guess in the next day or two that would be finalized and agreed upon.
. Weyrens: It is a standard form that you've seen, the only difference is that because the form is for primarily for residential
therefore there are some changes or proposed changes for commercial.
Rassier: And then this letter that we talked about will be attached to the developers agreement?
Meyer: It's actually part of the developer agreement.
Rassier: OK
Loso: I move for approval of final plat, and then at our next meeting or whenever we meet about this again, we will deal
with the developer agreement. OK? Does that sound fair?
Meyer: Yeh.
Rassier: Second
Meyer: The plat will be finalized and the developers agreement will be approved at a .....
Weyrens: We can't file the final plat though until the developers agreement is ready to be signed. So, is that going to hold you
up at all?
Meyer: That would hold us up. We want to get sewer and water going
Weyrens: If we can get it worked out by the 29th of August, the developer agreement?
Hosch: That's thirteen days.
Weyrens: Is that going to be a problem?
Meyer: Is there a reason that there has to be a comment, or comments on the developer agreement? I mean if it's with the
. attorney and with the city engineer and city staff and developer, if it's all agreed upon, in the developers agreement,
would that not be acceptable?
Hosch: I think that is something the council needs to see and approve. And a motion needs to be made on that.
Meyer: OK
Hosch: I mean, we do meet on the 29th where we can have a chance to review it .
Weyrells: We also meet on the 22nd too if we can get it turned around. That would be next Wednesday.
Russier: We also meet on the 20th.
Hosch: The 220d would allow us, I think, to have some better dialogue too. We're going to be pretty filled on the 29th,
Weyrells: Is that feasible do you think John?
Iff eyer: I haven't seen the letter yet so...But yeh
Weyrells: OK
llf eyer: So we're shooting for the 22nd?
Russier: What time?
Weyrells: Well, we have a meeting at 5:30 that day, so we could do it after the budget portion, or before, Whichever way you
want to do it.
Russier: Well, that's why I'm asking
Hosch: Probably before.
Weyrells: OK then, right away at 5 :30.
¡Heyer: You brought up the 20th Is there an opportunity of doing it on the 20th? .
Weyrells: There is no way we'd be able to because, (Rassier breaks in, I've got something at 4:30, I can't remember where it
was) John's not even in the office.
Meyer: Pardon Me?
Weyrells: John Scherer wasn't in the office today.
Ehlert: Did we..,.I don't believe we had the developer agreement when we approved the Northland Addition.
Weyrells: You haven't, you've always, what we've done before is, authorize the Hosch and clerk to execute it upon all your
contingencies and motions that you have made. So, as long as we make sure we get all the road easement taken care
of, you know, and we get the engineering and legal requirements made up, it is what's in your ordinance book to the
canned the developers agreement, but if you want to see it's fine, there's not a problem with that.
Ehlert: So did we see Northland Addition's
JJleyre/ls: No
Ehlert: The road easement is what we've talked about.
Af eyer: Yes
Ehlert: The attachment is on Block I, Correct?
iH eyer: Block 1. Yes
Ehlert: So, Block 2 will remain with a culdesac in it.
Meyer: Yes. .
Hosch: Would you consider amending the motion Bob to, for the clerk and Hosch to execute that, V'lith all contingencies
met" Approved by our city engineer and attorney?
Loso: Well, ya, fine, that's fine.
. Hosch: I mean, I don't have a problem with the council addressing it on the 22nd either.
Rassier: We're only talking a week away.
Hosch: Yes.
Meyer: A week, but, we've been doing this for......
Hosch: It probabJy won't happen for a week anyway, to tell you the truth. For our attorney and engineer to go over it and get
all, everything done with it. I mean, weather it's the council or myself.
Bettendorf How much in advance ofa meeting do you need for review so you're all comfortable with it?
Hosch: Just enough time to go over and read it. And then, address any concerns.
Rassier: It only takes 10 minutes to read it.
Bettendorf I haven't seen all your comments, but there is quite a list, as I Understand.
Meyer: Well, you took a residential development agreement and tried to incorporate it into a business development. And
they are like white and black different.
Bettendorf There really wasn't that many changes that were made though.
Unless there is something you need, I can get at it Monday and Tuesday. You know I need those two days.
Hosch: So you mean, it doesn't... I think it would be better just to go in front of the council anyway.
Rassier: It's going to take you (Joe) two days and I'm sure it's going to take John at least one day.
. Hosch: So, it probably won't be executed till Wednesday anyways.
Rassier: Even ifthe Hosch and the engineer did it, I mean your talking that kind of time line to get everybody together
anyway.
Ehlert: Joe, your recommendation would be what then? You want a chance to review all their questions and address them?
Bettendorf Well I think we should do that before the agreement is signed. And I'd assume some of them would be for John
Scherer.
Meyer: Uhhh, not really.
Bettendorf They are all related to engineering issues?
Meyer: Yeh.
Bettendorf OK
Davidson: Those issues Joe that you already addressed in your letter. He didn't take your letter, he didn't have the privilege of
having your letter before him when drafted it. He didn't see your language.
Bettendorf OK
Meyer: There was a whole section that we wanted to eliminate because it had to do with residential. There was a whole like
section 3.1 and there was probab]y A through E that had all everything to do with housing, housing, housing. And
we wanted to wipe that pretty much that whole section out.
Bettendorf I don't see that being an issue if John is going to be around on Monday and Tuesday, between to two of us we should
be able to get that fixed and out here for us, so.
. Russier: Well, either way that about the time it's going to take.
Meyer: Wednesday. Yes.
Rassier: No matter what So, I mean, we might as wel1 as look at it as a council, if it's going to take that kinda of time anyway.
Hosch: Would you like to restate your motion Bob, for the record? .
Loso: Original motion for approval of the final plat, and to look at the developer agreement on the 22nd.
Hosch: That was seconded by councilor Rassier. There is a motion and a second on the floor, is there any further discussion.
None being so, all those in favor signify by aye, The motion carried unanimously.
Note: The developer's agreement was approved under the September 6, 2001 consent agenda without discussion.
