TO:      Mayor Thomas J. Weisner
 
FROM:      Stephen K. Andras, P.E., CFM, Assistant City Engineer
 
DATE:      July 21st, 2014
 
SUBJECT:
A Resolution for Waiving the Maintenance Period for Supreme Courts L.L.C. - 12.021
 
PURPOSE:
To waive the required maintenance period for Supreme Courts L.L.C. - 12.021 .
 
BACKGROUND:
This development has completed all installations, inspections and submissions of the public improvements that make it eligible to be recommended for final acceptance of those improvements. It was recently approved by City Council for final acceptance under Legistar document 14-383. At the time of this approval, waiving the maintenance period was not being considered. Engineering has reconsidered this option and the specific circumstances surrounding the request to waive and concur that there is sufficient reason to recommend that the required maintenance period be waived.
 
DISCUSSION:
Watermain improvements that have been in place for years are the only significant public improvement that could require a maintenance period. Since these improvements have been in place for longer than the required maintenance period with no problems, it is our recommendation that the required maintenance period be waived.
 
IMPACT STATEMENT:
This action may add new public infrastructure /utilities to various divisions for maintenance, including streets, water, storm, sanitary, electrical, storm water management, fiber optic..
 
RECOMMENDATIONS:
Due to project specific circumstances, the City Engineer recommends waiving of the maintenance period.
