Memo
Re: Resolution 07 -11- Authorizing the City Manager to enter into an Infrastructure
Agreement with the Edwards Golf Communities, LLC for Waterline Improvements
Background
The 2007 Community Plan describes staff - identified areas in the City that either currently have deficient
water pressures and fire flows or would have them in the future, based on the projected growth. One
area that was noted during this process is the western portion of the Ballantrae subdivision. As detailed
in the 2007 Community Plan, the resolution to this issue is to provide additional loop connections in the
water distribution system and additional elevated storage.
The City has completed the construction of the Darree Fields elevated water storage tower and a
waterline extension along Cosgray Road. This work has provided the elevated storage as well as an
additional loop in the distribution system at Lame Drive. In order to provide the maximum benefit of
these completed projects, another connection is needed. The water line improvements addressed by this
Infrastructure Agreement will make this additional connection from the Cosgray Road waterline into the
existing waterlines on Ballantrae Place Loop. A map is attached that details the locations of the recent
projects and the proposed waterline improvements.
The proposed waterline improvements are within a future section of Ballantrae, specifically Section 9.
Edwards Golf Communities, LLC (Edwards) owns the land for this section. Edwards has indicated to
staff that they are not pursuing development of this section of the subdivision within the next couple of
years. They have agreed to reimburse the City for the cost of constructing the waterline and to provide
the easements needed at no cost to the City. A copy of the proposed Infrastructure Agreement, as
drafted by the Legal Department and agreed to by Edwards, is attached.
This project is included in the 2011 -2015 Capital Improvements Program as a Water Distribution
System - Non -Major Project. It is project EW1501 and is funded at $170,000 in the Beyond 2015
category. Staff estimates that this project will cost 5158,000.
Staff plans to package the construction of this waterline with another connection project along Emerald
Parkway. The bidding for these projects will occur later this spring and construction would take place
over the summer.
Recommendation
Staff recommends approval of Resolution 07-11.
