ISSCE/ACTJON PROPOSED
Improvement
District No. 36
Staff seeks Council consideration for passage of an Ordinance to form Special Improvement
District No. 36 .
PREVIOUS CXXl"K1. ACl10N
City Council originally included this section of South Platte River Drive East in Paving District 34,
1991. At this time, the Resolution Trust Corporation (RTC) owned~ property adjacent to this
street, making the property exempt from public improvement fees . Subsequently, the property
was excluded from the District. On March 1, 1993, Council approved II Resolution of Intent
"(R~solution #32, 1993) to form Special Improvement District No. 36 ..
Since 1956, the City has been imprOlling its streets to meet minimum City Standards through
Paving Improvement Districts. During this period, some 29 districts have been completed,
improving approximately 99 miles of streets and 43 alleys .
The costs of these improvements are borne by both the adjacent property owners, through
special assessments levied for work done adjacent to their properties, and the City, through
monies budgeted in the PIF for street and elley intersection work, incidentel storm sewer
construction , right-of-way acquisition, fence relocations , etc.
At the 1983 Budget Retreat. Council approved a ten -year paving district program to bring all
streets not included in previous districts, up to City Standards. Proposed paving district streets
were presented to Council as an accumulation of recommendations from several area~:
requests from citizens, petitions, requests from business or industrial property owners, requests
from Counc:11, review of past districts. review of maintenence problems and costs, and physical
lnapecti:ins. Prior to Inclusion in the list, streets showing signs of distress were tested for
tHckness of uphaltic concrete and basecourse to determine the appropriate action required .
Streets not meeting minimum City Standards were proposed for reconstruction and assessment
Streets that were found to meet City St.endards were not proposed for paving district :nclusion,
but rather , will be included in a City overlay-sealcoat program where nc-assessments are levied .
The street f'roposed for inclusion in Special Improvement District No. 36, the 3300 block of
S.. Jth Platte River Driv~ East, is a street that h.es not previously been constructed to minimum
City Standards , and, from testing results , requires total reconstruction.
STAFF ANALYSIS
The present property owner of the former RTC property in the 3300 block of South Platte River
Drive East desires to have the roadway adjacent to his property included in a Paving
improvement District.
This section of South l'latte River Drive was originally proposed for inclusion in Paving District
No. 34 . it was deleted just prior to the formation of the District because it had gone back to the
RTC . and . consequently, was exempt from special improvement district taxes .
We are yet to construct the 600 foot section of Platte River Drive north of this property because
of earlier conflicts with sanitation sewer line construction within our roadway. That work is
presently scheduled for completion this Spring.
We would like to incorporate the improvements adjacent to the Massengale development with
the contiguous work remaining under our existing contract. We believe that all of these
improvements could be completed by mid-summer.
Fl'IANOAl.lMPACT
It is estimated that $88 ,100 will be needed for the improvements. $40,000 remains available
from previous appropriations in the PIF. An additional appropriation of $48 ,000 will be required
from the PIF balance to fully fund the project The assessment total for the developers portion
of the improvements is estimated to be $36, I 00 .
