#2372 - Haglund - Final Plat Approval June 24, 1999 Page 2 Park Dedication Fee The City Assessor in July 1998 established a valuation for Lot 1 at $64,000, which at 8% would yield a Park Dedication Fee of $5,120. However, this exceeds the maximum allowed park fee. Therefore, the park fee to be charged will be the maximum allowed by ordinance, $4900. North Arm Lane Acquisition At the time of preliminary plat approval in June 1998, Council established that the applicant need merely acquire an easement from the Armstrong's (who are fee owners of the 33' x 854.5' corridor in which North Arm Lane exists) from Lot 1 to the traveled and maintained portion of North Arm Lane. Council subsequently directed staff to pursue the acquisition of the entire 33' North Arm Lane corridor. In April 1999 after some months of discussion, an agreement was reached with the Armstrong family members, as follows: 1.The City will agree to pay $2,500 to the Armstrong family and the purchaser of the new Haglund lot, Dave Supprell, will pay an additional $2,500 plus Armstrong's legal fees incurred. 2.The City will agree to continue plowing the road all the way to the existing farmhouse without cost to the Armstrongs as it has in the past. i.The City will agree to dedicate (declare) the road as a public roadway. North Arm Lane will continue to be maintained by the City as a public road. No charges will be assessed against the Armstrong property for normal road maintenance or repair. In the event of -^^ecial assessment for improvements to North Arm Lane, the City would ds^ . a .^seisment on the Armstrong homestead property until such time as the property is subaivided or sold. 4. The City will accept deeds of conveyance from the Haglunds, Smiths and Sladeks for road access to North Arm Drive. The Haglund dedication will appear on the formal plat as a public road dedication. This agreement was brought to the Council's attention as an information item in the April 12 agenda packet, and should be formally ratified by Council action. The City Anomey has been working with the Armstrong’s attorney to formalize documents to complete this agreement.
