The purpose of this agenda item is for City Council to accept and approve and to authorize the appropriate City officials to execute the agreement for the special assessments and other related matters associated with the Kelley Fuel parcel on this project. BACKGROUND: On May 6, 2003, a public hearing was held on the 2003 Reconstruction Project No. 2003-3, and Council ordered the improvement project to be designed on Fourth A venue, from Naumkeag Street to Shenandoah Drive; Viking Steel Road, from Fourth Avenue to C.R. 101; and Cavanaugh Drive, from Viking Steel Road to the Union Pacific Railroad crossing. Also included in the actions for ordering the improvement and preparation of plans and specifications, was for staff to prepare a benefit appraisal for the Kelley Fuel parcel along Viking Steel Road, from Fourth Avenue to the Union Pacific Railroad crossing. Attached to this memorandum is a summary letter from Patchin Messner Appraisers on the benefit appraisal that was done for the Kelly Fuel parcel. The conclusion of the appraisers on the special benefit received by the Kelley Fuel parcel for the improvements on Fourth Avenue and Viking Steel Road is a benefit of $250,000.00. In the feasibility study, the proposed assessment for both Fourth Avenue and Viking Steel Road totaled $359,000.00. Staffhad previously sent this letter to the Council to indicate what the special benefit would be and has been negotiating with the property owner and his attorney for an agreement for special assessments and other related matters. Attached to this memorandum is an agreement prepared by Kennedy & Graven and as part of negotiations with the property owner for the special assessments and other related matters with their parcel. An agreement has the following items for Council consideration and reVIew: . The special assessment will be reduced to $225,000.00 with no reduction in interest rate and $125,000.00 of the assessment will be current with the remaining $100,000.00 to be paid among the other lots that are created from platting in the future as a hook up charge. There is also a ten-year sunset clause on the payment on the remaining $100,000.00. . The City will pay $6,500.00 for easements necessary for the Fourth Avenue improvements and will pay an additional $9,000.00 in easement costs for the easements associated with sanitary sewer, storm sewer and watermain through the Kelley Fuel parcel. . No stormwater trunk charges will be charged on land north of the watermain easement to the railroad crossing. However, all stormwater trunk charges and ponding charges will apply to the lots created south of the watermain easement, as shown on the exhibit to the agreement. . Sanitary sewer service lines will be installed as part ofthe project. . All areas disturbed in construction with this project will be restored to its existing condition. Attached to the agreement is an exhibit which shows the amount of easements which are necessary for the City to construct the improvements on and by the Kelley Fuel parcel. In previous special assessment agreements on Valley View Road, the City did give a 10% reduction in the assessment in order to avoid appealing of the special assessment by the property owner. The other dollar amounts that have been negotiated, will provide the City with all the easements necessary to bring the watermain, sanitary sewer and storm drainage systems in order to construct Viking Steel Road and provide utilities to the SPUC service building. Assessments that cannot be covered on this parcel will be included with other benefiting property owners on this project, unless Council directs otherwise. City staff and the City Attorney's office have worked with the property owner and his attorney to prepare this agreement, and staff would recommend that this agreement be entered into in order to obtain the easements and resolve the issue with the assessment on the Kelley Fuel parcel. City Council would need to authorize the appropriate City officials to enter into this agreement. This agreement has been sent to the attorney for Kelley Fuels, Inc. and it is anticipated that an executed agreement will be placed on the table for the November 18, 2003 Council meeting. ALTERNATIVES: 1. Authorize the appropriate City officials to execute an agreement regarding the payment of special assessments and other related matters between the City of Shakopee and Kelley Fuels. 2. Do not execute the agreement regarding special assessments and other related matters. 3. Table for additional information. RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends Alternative No.1, as the City Attorney and the property owner have come to an agreement on the right-of-way acquisition and in regard to special assessments on this parcel, and would end any condemnation action or appeal of special assessments associated with the 2003 Street Reconstruction Project. ACTION REQUESTED: Authorize the appropriate City officials to execute an agreement regarding payment of special assessments and other related matters between the City of Shakopee and Kelley Fuels for the 2003 Street Reconstruction Project No. 2003-3. ~~~ ruce Loney Public Works irector BUpmp KELLEYFUELS-l1115/03 This space reserved for recording purposes AGREEMENT RE PAYMENT OF SPECIAL ASSESSMENTS This Agreement is entered into as of ,2003, by and between the City of Shako pee ("City"), and Kelley Fuels, Inc.
