Grading Permit Brent said he talked with Steve Holloway with MoDot regarding
Discussion for permitting and said an actual pemvt was not needed. They would
Briarcliff Development rely heavily on their field observation people and look at the condition
of the road, Riverway and Tullison which is under MoDot's purview and contact
would be made if there were any issues.
Brent said the other issue was a Letter of Credit for Riverside Street and all
agreed Briazcliff Development Company would be responsible to rebuild
Riverside Street in its entirety after the project is complete.
Brent said the next issue was the impact on West Platte Road. Staff
level doesn't believe the impact on West Platte Road would be limited,
the amount of truck traffic will have an impact on W. Platte Road and
the staff would like to lump that impact fee into the letter of credit that
would be entered into with Briarcliff Development Company. The
other was the City requested a $100,000.00 escrow to be pulled upon
by the City to do minor repairs for Riverside Avenue or for any other
street affected. Briarcliff requested a stipulation be put in the letter of
credit as to when the City can pull upon the escrow. There was a
question on who determines the repair and what that means. An
agreement like a Public Elements Agreement would be entered into
with Briarcliff Development agreement and the City would "tweak"
the agreement to reflect the stipulations and requirements talked about
here tonight.
Briarcliff Development would clean all the roads at the City Engineer's
discretion at their own cost. If the City Engineer finds repair/clean-up
needs to be done notice will be given to be done within one week and if
the work is not completed within one week, the permit will be suspended until
the work is complete. If the work is not done in a specified time period, then
the City would go to the Letter of Credit/Bond. The agreement would state to
replace Riverway Blvd/Riverside Aveaue and the estimate for that is $180,000
and the staff recommends a permit expiration for renewal to come back to the
boazd for permit renewal to discuss. With the $180,000. the staff also would
like to include a $100,000 for the escrow to do the repair plus another fee for
erosion, clean up emergency, work that needs to be done for sloughing and if a
down pour occurs and an mount to replace W. Platte Road for any damage
occurring and the staff believes to set the fee at $350,000.
Brent said to rebuild Riverside Avenue there would be an asphalt base
plus a 2" surface coat. Mayor Rose asked, "When all hauling is
complete, won't Riverside Avenue have to be the major access for the
property as it developments and dependent upon Briazcliff
Development for the condition of the street.
Ritchie with Briazcliff Development said, "Yes" and it is their intention
to develop that site and eventually, route a road up through there and
an objective is to buy the trailer park and work with the City. Ritchie
says they don't want to be put back in a comer that every little thing
that pops up on the street is their fault.
Alderman Bruns asked if the City Engineer detemvnes if damage is
done to Riverside Avenue. Brent said we do traffic counts and it could
be deternuned by the City Engineer and a independent third party.
Minn. 5/16/06
Alderman Beazd said the contractor that rebuilt Gateway has a one
year maintenance contract and they will not take care of it if the road
fails due to hauling damage.
John McClelland said this is the City Engineers call and sees no reason
to question the City Staff's competence to determine the damage.
A letter of credit is easier and cheaper to obtain than a bond.
The boazd was polled and all agreed to enter into an agreement with
Briarcliff Development and the City for this project.
Request for Approval Pat Casey, Premier Coach, 4301 NW 'Itiillison Road requested approval
of a Preliminary Site of a Preliminary Site Plan review for a new development, construction
Plan for Premier Coach of a 9,600 square foot building. The proposal use would be for a
Discussion combination of "Uses" and would like considered the use to be "Motor
Vehicle Repair Services." Some of the issues is there is already an
existing storm water problem and for the parking there is crush and run.
For wear and teaz by the coaches on asphalt, it is detrimental to their
budget. There is now 40 or so coaches on the site and Mr. Casey wants
to increase by 60 per cent.
The preference is hard-surface on all areas, but with the water run-ofY
problem only 40% is practical.
Brent said Aylett Flowers Surveyors needs to give the City
a "Storm Water Calculation Plan" existing conditions, (numbers)
Porous asphalt is a possibility.
Alderman Beard said his concern is we don't allow anyone else to park
on non-paved surfaces, we require asphalt surfaces. Alderman Beard
asked if there was a grading plan, Brent said, "No."
Alderman Bruns asked about the Special Use Permit in place now. Brent said
they aze parking on gravel because of the storm water problem.
The other option maybe porous asphalt and this would have to be
explored. Mayor Rose asked if the water on Tullison Road is to be
addressed. Brent said it's a levee problem, first of all Tttllison Road
is MoDot owned and it's not really a City issue. Brent said whatever
the boazd decides, it would be put in the GP plan.
Mr. Casey said if the board decision is negative, he will not pursue the
request. Brent thinks because it is the GP District, exceptions could be
made.
Alderman Super said the boazd needs to see the drainage calculations from the
engineers.
Request for consider- Alderman Bruns moved to table the request for consideration for approval of a
ation of a Preliminary Preliminary site Plan for Premier Coach until the drainage study is complete,
Site Plan for Premier seconded by Alderman Super, the vote was:
Coach, Tabled
Aye: Aldermen Dazata, Super, Hurt, Beazd, Bruns and Jones.

West Platte Bridge Mike Duffy and Gary Strack, Sharer, Kline & Warren gave an update to the
Discussion board regarding the West Platte Bridge. The bridge is still in the design stage
but requested a decision from the board as to an additional span and widening
the sidewalk. Mike said while designing the bridge, the City had intended to
build the road up to the bridge, but the fill required near the levee concerned
the levee district. It would be too much strain on the storm water structures in
that azea. Mike presented an alternative of creating a span over that azea,
creating a two span bridge. The new design, with the second span would cost
an estimated $3.8 million.
Mike also presented the option of widening the 4 foot sidewalk to 10 feet, in
anticipation of the trail that would run near the completed bridge. The sidewalk
would allow for bikers and walkers, without holding up traffic on either side. The
extra steel involved with widening the sidewalk will cause the cost to rise to
approximately $4 million, with the second span. Mike said the plans are pretty
well along. New geo-tech information is needed and redesigning back to Cliff-
view and is asking for change orders to the original agreement.
Mayor Rose said the boazd would lake into consideration the 10 foot sidewalk and
feels more information is needed. Some of the Alderman felt the 10 foot sidewalk
was excessive.
Brent said the citizens have identified the trails as an important priority. Brent said
the cost of both additions is small relative to the cost of the entire project.
Brent said the congestion could be heavy, if the trail is heavily used.
Brent said the work will begin on the additional span and the Change Order with
the sidewalk widening and one without changing the Line Creek Bridge.
Mayor Pro Tem The board was The board was polled and agreed to table choosing an
choice, Tabled "Acting President" (Mayor Pro Tem) until the June 3rd meeting.
