SUBJECT:
A Resolution to accept the public improvements and waive the maintenance security for the completed Loading Dock Addition, 2024.470, 948 Meridian Lake Dr., in Aurora, Illinois Ward 10.
PURPOSE:
To accept the public improvements installed by the Developer of this project and to waive the normally required, one year maintenance security for these improvements.
BACKGROUND:
This is a commercial development that added a loading dock addition with very minimal public improvements constructed. In accordance with Section 43-55(a)(3) of Aurora's Municipal Code, the Developer of the Project posted a security to ensure completion of these improvements including, erosion control measures were met.
DISCUSSION:
This development has now completed all installations, inspections and submissions that make it eligible to be recommended by the Engineering Division for final acceptance of these improvements. As required by Section 43-103(c) of the Municipal Code, the Engineering Division has reviewed, approved and filed as-constructed record plans for the development which depict these limited public improvements and has completed and approved a final site inspection of said improvements via our onsite consultant. Based on our review and approved site inspection, it is recommended by the Engineering Division, that City Council accept the public improvements. There are no public improvements to be accepted and all improvements have been in place for more than 1 year and the length of time that has passed since these overall improvements were completed we also recommend that the normally required one year maintenance security be waived, and the original security posted for the site be returned.
IMPACT STATEMENT:
This action adds or replaces no public infrastructure.
RECOMMENDATIONS:
Approve the acceptance of improvements and waiving the one-year maintenance security for Loading Dock Addition.
