011ON was made by Councllmember Threinen, seconded by
Counclimeember Nelis, to accept the petition and place It on
file.
Ration carried, five ayes.
William Schratder, 4920 Quaker Lane, asked if the placement of
stop s gns lit the City is periodically reviewed or whether the
City waits for residents to petition for placement or removal.
Engineer ftere answered thdt he has recommended the removal or
placement of signs In response to changing traffic patterns and
const rust laic of new streets.
Manager Willis stated that the petitioner, Stobbe Development,
len;., Olds declined to sign the de:velopm eint contr-ict because It
called for him to install and pay for d paved street.
krwlr Stobbe, 315 Plneview, stated that he understdnds that the
cu - e -sac ln,q recommended would be cunstructed beyond his
pruperty. He can't justify the cost and doesn't believe it is
fair that he should have to pay for the a;hire stretL ulnar there
are other property owners to the north of the proposed street
who should also pay.
That Mdyur noted that street lr stdllatlur is d requirement of
dll developers. A public Improvement hCdrinq could br; cal led oil
the project with the other property owners being notified. It
they benefit, they should take pdrt in the assessment.
Mr. Stobbe asked why d cul-de-sdC was needed. Er glneer Moore
answered that In 1966 when this street was linstalled, there were:
nto requirements for d cul-de-sac. It has been City policy for
several years now that cul-de-sacs be lnstdlled ori all permanent
dead end reads for s11owplows and trdfflc to turn around without
having I u 1 itu someone's drlvewtay.
MOUION ads made by Cou el lmember lhrelrtell, seconded by Mayor
Davenport, that the Cuutell, In order to resolve this, order d

Lngleteer Moore stated that the: City duesn°t hdvV d petition from
anybody asking that the street be Installed. Normally la the
pe:titlwt process, the City Is guaranteed they will be reimbursed
for any costs involved in the hedrtnq. Before a hedrinq could

costs.

Manager Willis stated that the 1.041115 to Lenders prugrdm is an
effort to use the state and federal stdtu:es to enable the
developers of multi-Idwily dwellinq units the opportunity of
working with a m1,111iCipallty through d program which provides tdx
c+cempt f lnaiiclrig to the developer In order that the: dost of a
project cart be lowered to ultimately benefit the consumer in
lower prices housl+tg. the owner of the property must provide
20% of the units to low to middle Income families. Further,
that gudrdrltee must remdirl let effect with the project for tern
years at which time this will be voided. Also, after ten years
the; project could be cur%verted from apartme+ets to condumWIums.

from Other developers which the City may recet*e.

to bee dduptud.
Cuuitel lmumber Neils asked what the actual d0ldr bent•f it would
