Title
Resolution - A Resolution Approving a Developer Agreement Between City of Mansfield and Cardinal Park LLC for Cost Participation for Drainage Improvements Adjacent to the Cardinal Park Estates Subdivision for an Amount not to exceed $67,632.80 (Street Bond Fund)
Requested Action
Consider approval of cost participation with the developer on offsite drainage improvements adjacent to the Cardinal Park Estates Subdivision.
Recommendation
The Engineering Staff recommends the approval of the Developer Agreement to participate in the cost of drainage improvements adjacent to the Cardinal Park Estates Subdivision.
Description/History
Cardinal Park Estates, a residential development in the City of Mansfield, that has been platted and approved for construction, has frontage on the west side Cardinal Rd where there is an existing drainage problem on the east side of the road. The bar ditches on the east side of Cardinal Rd do not have enough capacity to handle existing flows and during heavy rains the water overtops the road and runs into yards of existing residences and is dangerously close to entering the homes.
Justification
The engineering staff has concluded that it is necessary to add more capacity to the existing east bar ditch by widening the ditch within the ROW and adding more culverts to the existing drive approaches, will decrease the chances of flooding to existing residences on the west side of Cardinal. Flow from the improved bar ditch will be picked up in the ROW of Cardinal Rd and conveyed through an underground storm drain system where it will connect with the storm drain system that is required for the subdivision development.
The Director of Public Works will be in attendance at the meeting to answer Council's questions regarding the proposed contracts. A Developer's Agreement is attached for Council's consideration.
Funding Source
The funding source will be from the Street Bond Fund.
