Ben Deemer explained the State/County <br />cost involvement with the City cost being ~ of the County portion. Deemer <br />pointed out that there would be an additional cost of $16,000 at today's cost <br />for the Alpaca Estates plat alone, and feels it would not be out of line to <br />ask the developer to escrow funds for this improvement. Mr. Schnelle indicated <br />that he felt this would be acceptable particularly since this plat might be <br />the main reason signalization would be needed. <br /> <br />Motion by Ben Deemer, seconded by Gerry Zimmerman to Recommend to the City <br />Council to approve the Preliminary Plat for Alpaca Estates contingent on <br />resolving the deficiencies as stated in the Engineer's letter of March 7, 1980, <br />specifically: <br /> 1.
