Item: Consideration of oversize participation in the amount of $7,874.40 for a
waterline associated with the LaCour Subdivision -Phase I, located in the
Wolf Pen Creek District along the south side of SH 30 (Harvey Road), just east
of the existing Taco Bell.(96-209)
Item Summary: This plat was approved by Council on April 11, 1996.
Associated with this final plat is the construction of a 12" waterline along SH
30 and the Kyle Street. extension. According to an hydraulic analysis
submitted by the applicant, their development .requires an 8" waterline. As
such, and in accordance with the Subdivison Regulations, the applicant is
requesting that the City participate in the cost differential between the 8" and
12" lines. The City's share, ,per the engineer's estimate, is $8,337.20. This
amount is greater that the 30% allowed by state statute for City financial
participation without publicly biding the project. The applicant has not publicly
bid the waterline construction. The City can participate in 30% of the project
cost which equates to $7,874.40.
Financial Summary: Funds are available from the 1996-97 fiscal year CIP
budget for oversize waterline participation. $50,000 was budgeted leaving
$42,125.60 available if this request is approved.

Association in favor of the proposed replat.

of Foxfire Phase One as submitted.. Commissioner Garner seconded the motion which passed

AGENDA ITEM NO. b: Consideration of a final plat of the Lacour Subdivision Phase One
totaling 9.533 acres located along the south side of Harvey Road. just east of the existing Taco
Bell site. (96-209)
Assistant City Engineer Morgan presented the staff report and informed the Commission that the final
plat includes a 4.339 acre lot along State Highway 30, which includes .562 acres of future Kyle Street
right-of--way and the 2®' Wolf Pen Creek dedication area, a 5.1 acre area of Wolf Pen Creek dedications
and 0.94 acres of Kyle Street right-of--way adjacent to the Reserve Tract.. Wolf Pen Creek runs through
the property and by ordinance, property dedication is required if the developer chooses not to develop
the park area at this time. This dedication. is being made into two parts with this plat. The first being
the dedication as shown of the 5.1 acres,. and the second will come by .separate instrument from the
buyer of lot 1. Due to prior arrangements between the buyer and seller, the applicant has requested that
the City obtain the 20' minimum reserve area from the owner of lot 1 with the site development of that
lot. During the CIP Advisory Committee'.. process, the extension of Kyle south through this property
was discussed and recommended. Staff would recommend this extension as well.. Since the. Kyle
extension is .not on the City's thoroughfare plan,.' staff has worked on a development agreement with
Lacour that accommodates the. City's need for the Kyle. extension. The. development agreement was
approved by Council at their March 14, 1996 meeting. Staff recommended approval of the final plat
with the Presubmission Conference comments.
Greg Taggart of the Municipal Development Group informed the. Commission that the final plat was
previously approved with the condition of a development agreement. This plat is a good step forward
in turning non productive land into a productive use.
Commissioner Lightfoot moved to recommend approval of the. final plat of the Lacour Subdivision
Phase One with staff recommendations. Commissioner Gribou .seconded the motion which passed
.unopposed (6 - 0).
AGENDA ITEM NO. 7: Other business.
Commissioner Hall suggested an after hours phone number o reach a staff member after 5:00 p.m. in
case a Commissioner has a problem attending the meeting. The after hours number could be to talk
with a staff member about how many Commissioners will be present at the meeting.
