RE: Kollville Estates 3rd Addition - Recommendation of Acceptance
BMI Project No. T15.21660
Honorable Mayor and Council Members:
Kollville, LLC (Ralph Munsterteiger) has requested acceptance of all municipal improvements to the
Kollville Estates 3rd Addition. Upon review of the improvements, Mr. Munsterteiger was informed that a
recommendation of acceptance could not be made to the Council, due to surface damage found on the
project roadways and on the bituminous trail. Mr. Munsterteiger was informed that acceptance of the
improvements would require that the streets be repaired by a seal coat overlay and that the trail be
corrected by a I-inch bituIl\inous overlay or monetary compensation ($18,620) be made to the City in lieu
of the repairs.
To date, Kollville, LLC has deposited $18,620 to the City to be held in escrow for the needed repairs and
has asked that the City allow them to reserve the right to complete the repairs if they so choose.
Based on our review of the improvements, discussions with your Public Works Department and past
recommendations for approval, it is recommended that the municipal improvements of the Kollville
Estates 3rd Addition be accepted by the City. It is further recommended that the $18,620 deposit be held
in escrow to complete the repairs at a later date. If the City is to complete the repairs, it is recommended
that the repairs not be made until home construction within the development is complete and that the
repairs be incorporated into a annual seal coat project.
Please let me know if you have any questions or would like additional information.
Sincerely,
BOLTON & MENK, INC.
