Hun asked what precedent this would set for the other two properties. Would they have to be <br />financed for seven years also? • <br />Moorse stated it would be possible and is considering whether this situation is unique enough <br />to set it apart. <br />Goetten feels there is a difference between established properties and new properties. <br />Kelley agreed that the distinction is very important and that requiring the full payment could <br />impose a hardship on the owner of an existing property whereas the fee could be <br />included in the financing of a new property. <br />Mayor Callahan stated that he is opposed to the request. <br />Hurr stated her concern about the precedent. <br />Mayor Callahan stated that a decision would have to be postponed until the full Council is <br />present since the issue is split evenly. <br />Mr. Nettles commented concerning the precedent, that there is a major difference between the <br />amount of money an individual has to come up with versus the money a developer would be <br />required to come up with and that it would be more difficult for an individual to obtain the <br />funds. <br />Mayor Callahan noted that there is not a purchase agreement signed by Mr. Melamed and that <br />if there is no purchase agreement by Friday, he would vote no on Monday because he felt it <br />was not worth it to make the arrangement for just one property. <br />( #20) ROAD MAINTENANCE POLICY <br />Moorse explained the information included in the packet describes what there is to consider if <br />the Council is going to move away from its current policy of leaving the private roadways on <br />their own in terms of maintenance. The information describes locations and conditions of <br />roads to be considered, along with an estimate of costs for maintenance. <br />Hun asked how many roads don't have cul -de -sacs and what would it cost to build that right <br />of way for each one. <br />Gerhardson noted that the costs listed do not include the acquisition of those rights of way. <br />Kelley asked how many of the roads wish to remain private. <br />Gerhardson said he believes he's had a call from every one of them indicating an interest in a <br />policy or procedure regarding the City providing maintenance. <br />Hun commented on Millston being called a private road because of the school bus using it. <br />Kelley explained that the buses do use the private roads to drop the children off at the door as <br />a matter of safety. <br />It was moved by Mayor Callahan, seconded by Hun, to recommend acceptance of the <br />information.
