GENERAL DISCUSSION -
1. Mayor Cotant said about a year ago the Crestfield Subdivision started developing. The
street on the north end off Galena was completed by Bannock Paving for the City, the
agreement was the City would go 50% on the cost, which we did last summer. Mayor
Cotant said Stanley Street was not constructed as required by the developer. The residents
in the area are complaining because the developer's portion of the street is not completed
Sean Harris got a quote from Bannock Paving to complete the requirement, the amount is
$4,976.20. Mayor Cotant said the City is supposed to know tomorrow if the developer is
going to be able get funds to complete the street improvements. Mayor Cotant said the
developer did get a bond as required, if the developer cannot get the funds the City will
act on the bond. If the developer cannot get the funds Mayor Cotant suggested the City
complete the street, then get the money from the bond. Attorney Holmes suggested the
City do nothing until we find out where the bonding company is. Discussion about
amending the ordinance requiring bonding or construction before any building permit is
issued. PWD Smart and Attorney Holmes will work on amending the ordinance.
Councilman England said he would like include the item on future council agendas until
there is a resolution.
2. Councilman Quick asked what the status is on the bridge over canal between Kasiska
Subdivision and Cotant Park. Mayor Cotant stated when the subdivision develops to the
west of the canal a street and bridge will be required. Mayor Cotant expressed concern
about the developer selling the property to the west of canal to another developer. Wayne
Webb expressed concern about size of road required. After discussion, it was decided
there is plenty of easement required. Councilman England suggested the City make sure
the developer purchasing the property knows all of his requirement pertaining to building
bridge and streets. Councilman Gunter expressed concern about the new developer not
developing the property for several years, we do not know when the bridge will be
constructed. Councilman Gunter felt there should be some time line on when the bridge
should be constructed. Councilman Gunter felt the City should not let Marshall's off the
hook on constructing the bridge. Mayor Cotant said he will talk to Marshall's about
maybe having, the City building the street in exchange for lots for a park that will serve
both subdivisions.
