the 1986 improvement sod?
No.

A portion will have to be cut.

5.. MOTION by Mayer, second by Sprute to adopt RESOLUTION NO. R72-88 adopting
the assessment roll for the 195th street Project (88-3). APIF, MOTION CARRIED.
6. The Council next considered a recommendation to accept the Whispering River
Townhouse Project. Engineer Kaldunski stated the trail had been moved off of
the parkland and that the developer had indicated he would level and seed the
boulevard but not resod. It was the consensus of the Council that the boulevard
along Division Street was in extremely poor condition and should be improved.
Councilmember Sprute suggested that since the developer had installed sod once
and that it appeared that most of the damage occurred during the installation of
the sidewalk which the City participated in, that the City install the sod.
Councilmember Mayer stated that the City should not have to install the sod
because much of the damage could be attributed to delay by the developer. It
was the consensus of the Council that the City would share the costs with the
developer. Councilmember Sprute noted that the material used in the trail
was not actually tree bark. Engineer Kaldunski stated that wood chips was
an acceptable substitute. Councilmember Sprute also noted that construction
debris had been left in the flood plain. MOTION by Donaldson, second by
Kelly to accept the Whispering River Townhouse Project and release all but
$500 of the escrow contingent upon the following:
a. Developer agrees to prepare the boulevard a1.ong Division Street
for sodding.
b. Developer removes the construction debris from the flood plain.
APIF, MOTION CARRIED.

CARRIED.
