1. Ability to obtain Certificates of Occupancy one home at a time (versus obtaining multiple CO's for dead-end watermain) 2. Increased customer satisfaction due to City benefits#1 through 43 Attached is a one-page position sheet provided by Capstone Homes. As noted, if a cost-share agreement is not approved the developer proposes to install a dead-end watermain line.While this would not be ideal due to the potential concerns regarding water quality and public safety noted above,the dead-end 8-inch watermain line would be sufficient to serve the new homes along the cul-de-sac street once a sufficient number of homes are occupied and are using water. This number will depend on the locations of the homes along the dead-end main(to be determined by City Staff as needed). Timeframe: Staff estimates this case will take 15 minutes to present and respond to questions. Observations/Alternatives: Capstone Homes would complete the looped watermain connection work as part of their development, and the City would reimburse them for our share of the costs. City Staff will inspect the work and costs will be based on actual construction costs,which will be reviewed and approved by City Staff. Appropriate traffic control will be used as necessary while the work is completed. Ben Minks with Capstone Homes will be attending to answer questions as needed. Funding Source: If a cost-share is approved by City Council, Staff will develop a cost-share agreement to be executed between the City and Capstone Homes. The City's share of costs will be funded through the Water Funds. Recommendation: Since the trunk watermain connection would benefit both the City and the developer, City Staff supports a 50/50 cost-share in an amount not-to-exceed$50,000. Action: Recommend City Council approval of sharing in up to 50%of construction costs to connect the watermain from Brookfield 8th Addition to the existing trunk watermain at 166th Avenue at a not to exceed amount of$50,000.
