Louisville City Council Meeting August 15, 2000 Page 14. Howard commented that he had no reason to continue the matter. VOTE: The motion passed by a vote of 5-1. Howard voted no. RESOLUTION NO. 45, SERIES 2000 - FINAL PUD DEVELOPMENT PLAN & AMENDED FINAL PUD DEVELOPMENT PLAN FOR A NEW LIGHT INDUSTRIAL BUILDING, MCBRIDE BROTHERS, LOTS 13, 14 & 15, BLOCK 4, CTC, FIRST FILING - continued from 8/1/00 Davidson called for Staff presentation. Planning Director Paul Wood stated that the applicant is McBride Brothers and that they are proceeding with the Final PUD process to have an additional building on Lot 13. Wood stated that Council continued this matter from the August 1, 2000 meeting to provide the applicant time to address the issue of an existing easement, which provides a secondary access from Boxelder Street. Wood noted that this is an off-site issue with respect to the PUD. Wood reviewed a letter from Boxelder Investments, the property owner for Lot 14, for which this emergency access easement was dedicated. Wood stated that the issue is to determine what the mechanism was, who was to maintain the secondary access, and whether it was a subdivision obligation subject to SPF installment at the time the building was constructed. The letter indicates that the access easement was reflected on Phase III of public improvements. Wood stated that this information has led him to believe that this was a subdivision obligation, rather than a private obligation. Wood stated that the access is a recorded access easement connecting the terminus of Boxelder Street to Cherry Street, is some 750 feet long and must be re-certified. Wood noted that the Fire District confirms that the easement has deteriorated and will need to be resurfaced. Wood stated that it is Staff's opinion that this is not a clear issue and he questioned whether it should be put on the PUD plan as a requirement making the property owner liable. Wood noted that the applicant has stated they are willing to pay their fair pro-rated share for a recycled asphalt resurfacing of the access easement. The project architect has estimated a cost of $2.00 per square foot to re-certify the easement and put it back in place. Wood stated that Staff recommends continuing Resolution No. 45, Series 2000, until the September 5, 2000 City Council meeting. Wood noted that the applicant is seeking a mechanism that will allow their development plan to proceed. 14
