RECOMMENDATION: In accordance with Resolution No. 138-04, city staff recommends approval of this resolution expressing the willingness of the City to cost share street and sewer infrastructure costs that would be utilized by both the Southpass Development and the future Regional Park. BACKGROUND: In an effort to obtain a 200 acre Community Park for the citizens of Fayetteville, the Parks and Recreation Advisory Board studied available sites and determined that the Cummings's property was the most desirable site for the park. Since this property, located west of Cato Springs Road and adjacent to 1-540, is 800 acres in size, it became necessary to solicit proposals from developers for a public/private partnership to make the Community Park feasible. The City Selection Committee selected Southpass Development Company, LLC and a contract was subsequently approved by the City Council on September 7, 2004. DISCUSSION: This approved contract states that "the City of -Fayetteville and SouthPass shall cost share (50/50) all costs of extending sewer to the Community Park site and neither shall charge for the acquisition of necessary water or sewer easements across their property to serve their land within this 800 acre area." On September 16, 2008 the City Council agreed to upgrade the sewer line contained in the Wastewater System Improvement Projects EL -3 in order to have the capability to serve the SouthPass area in the future. In addition, the developer agreed to fund 50% of this upgrade. At this point, the sewer line from EL -3 to the SouthPass/Community Park property will have to be addressed in order to provide service to both developments. City Staff has studied four (4) different routes for this sewer line (See Exhibit A) with an estimated cost range from $1.49 million to $4.02 1 City Council Meeting of November 18, 2008 million as shown on the attached cost estimates (See Exhibit B). The option with the lowest cost is recommended which would install a pump station on the property and route a force main to the north along the future extension of Shiloh Drive. An existing encasement under 1-540 located to the north of the Cato Springs interchange would be utilized and the force main would discharge into an existing sewer line located on Custer Avenue. A portion of the Custer Avenue sewer line would need to be upgraded to 12" in size. This total cost has been estimated to be $1.49 million which when split 50/50 would result in an estimated cost to the city in the amount of $745,000. All of this sewer work would need to be installed as a part of the first Phase of construction either for the Park or SouthPass development. BUDGET IMPACT: Upon approval of this Council agenda item, plans will be developed by the Southpass Development Company and actual construction bids will be acquired for the sewer construction. A cost share agreement will then be prepared and brought forward for approval that will obligate the funds. It is anticipated that this work will be paid for out of the wastewater impact fee account. 2 RESOLUTION NO. 1'1 A RESOLUTION TO APPROVE APPROXIMATELY $744,880.00 AS A 50/50 COST SHARE WITH SOUTHPASS DEVELOPMENT COMPANY, LLC FOR THE SEWER INSTALLATION COSTS FOR THE REGIONAL PARK AND SOUTHPASS PZD WHEREAS, Resolution NO. 138-04 passed unanimously by the City Council on September 7, 2004, accepted and approved a contract with SouthPass Development Company LLC to "cost share (50/50) all costs of extending sewer to the Community Park site ...;" and WHEREAS, the City Engineering Department has estimated that the City 50% portion of these costs will be $744,880.00 but will be subject to competitive bidding so that the final cost may be higher or lower.
