S 9. August 2, 2006 Tiffin City Council and Planning and Zoning The school has agreed to this cooperative arrangement if they can be assured by the city that they will not have to pay any of the costs connected to installation of the water mains across the north boundary of the school. Greenleaf explained that although all school' plans include an Ireland Avenue extension, he would predict that the present time could probably be a difficult one for coming to an agreement on this matter. Attorney Greenleaf provided the most recent paper copy of the current draft during the meeting for consideration of subdivider' s agreement between Deer View and the City. The agreement considered would relieve Deer View and Glasgow from any recoupment charges for sewer costs, in recognition of sewer project costs to be borne by Deer View w and Glasgow in this agreement. Approximations on sewer costs nears $ 500,000 to 600, 000 with $ 390, 000 of these total approved costs proposed to be split and provided by the City of Tiffin, the Clear Creek Amana School, and developer Jim Glasgow. Costs to be reviewed and approved by the city engineer as reasonable, and any costs in excess of$ 390, 000 to be paid by developers of Deer View. Section 3. 2 to include " conveyance of permanent utility easements and access" as regulated under city ordinances. Section 3. 5 Subdivider agrees to install at his cost an 18 inch sewer line from the point of connection near the Tiffin Sewage Treatment Plant to the south- west corner of the property currently owned by the Clear Creek School District,.... further agrees to install a 10 inch sewer line at his expense from the south- west corner of the Clear Creek School District property to the subdivision. Section 3. 5 interest rate of 7: 45% per annum was considered with no change., Section 3. 6 Clerk Reihman noted that Mr. Portwood and Mr. Rogers had been at the Public Meeting of the Clear Creek Amana School commencing at 4: 30 p.m. earlier in the day and they had each indicated that they would pay the cost of the needed water line from the Echo Building hydrant to the west side of the school property in an effort to bring the school into the multi- party agreement to get sewer and water across the school campus and thus provide utility connection for their proposed Deer View Subdivision directly north of Highway# 6. Reihman noted that the line requesting 100% of these costs to be paid by the city should be deleted from the draft agreement in consideration of these comments from Portwood and Rogers in public forum. . Rogers said that yes that these comments had been made, but there had been another meeting before this meeting and he was asking for a negotiation with the city. The cost for running the water mains on school property is approximated at$ 65, 000. The cost with also including water boring under Highway 6 was estimated at $ 91, 000. Petersen said the line should be deleted. Motion Dils to move that the line demanding 100% of water main costs from the Echo school building to the west end of the property be paid by the city be deleted from the draft agreement. Motion died for lack of a second. 2
