Top issues during term (12)(Development)
Whitetail Woods Phase 2 subdivision
Park dedication and environmental mitigation requirements were already fulfilled during Phase 1.
Potential purchase of four city parcels
Putting in a simple road and utility hookups is estimated at about $130,000, which staff think could mostly be recouped by selling the lots.
Deferred special assessment loan program
Contract awarded at $1,254,058.85; affected homeowners pay special assessments based on street frontage.
The Villas townhome plat — rental units becoming for-sale homes
No new development costs — buildings are already permitted and under construction; the change just enables sales.
80-acre property development direction
The city has roughly $3.2 million invested in the property and estimates $11-12 million in infrastructure costs under the current plan.
Dead and hazardous tree removal loans for homeowners
No new cost to the city — existing loan maximums apply; homeowners repay the no-interest loans.
Hwy 12 commercial rezone / Hoss Bros. redevelopment
No direct city cost identified; future site plan review will set conditions to manage impacts on neighbors.
Condominium conversion at 1485 Front Porch Place
No direct city cost; the change may bring new commercial investment to the space.
Proposed 16-home development near former Windsor Forest landfill
Putting in a simple road and utility hookups is estimated at about $130,000, which staff think could mostly be recouped by selling the lots.
River Prairie Townhomes Phase II conversion to condominiums
No direct city cost, though the original sales agreement requiring units be offered for sale stays intact.
Town of Washington boundary agreement and incorporation
River Prairie commercial development (Chipotle site)
New commercial development will add to the city's tax base, though specific values aren't yet known.
