Background: The Parks and Recreation Department is eager to begin offering programs and additional services to the citizens of Milton. Many of these programs may be offered by outside providers through a license agreement with the City of Milton based on a submitted program proposal rather than offering these programs through a paid independent contractor or a paid employee of the City. Discussion: Overkill Volleyball, Inc. is a local organization founded approximately 3 years ago. They have conducted leagues in Cobb County and the City of Roswell. The program will be hosted at Hopewell Middle School. The program consists of recreational level play as well as possible advanced play opportunities for both boys & girls from ages 6 - 18. Ileana Yustis, President of Overkill Volleyball, approached the City in May 2011 and provided an initial partnership proposal in September 2011. Since then, we have been working through various documentation, logistics, and a location for the program. Hopewell Middle School is the proposed site for the program. We have an IGA with Hopewell Middle School that will allow use of the indoor facilities namely the gymnasium. We have reviewed the proposal, held meetings, checked credentials and references, and received a copy of their license and liability insurance coverage. Tom and I agree that this co-ed youth volleyball program would be an asset to the Parks and Recreation Department. Once this agreement is approved, registration would begin immediately. A commission of 25% of all registration fees and non-resident fees will be paid to the City of Milton each season two weeks following the end of registration. Non-resident fees will be collected by Overkill Volleyball at a rate of 50% more.

In Recognition of the Volunteers who made the 2011 Crossroads at Crabapple Antique and Art Festival a Success WHEREAS, The City of Milton is grateful for its numerous volunteers upon whom the city is dependent and who strive to make Milton a desirable place for all citizens, businesses and visitors; and WHEREAS, Untold hours of hard work and planning went into organizing this yearly event and it is imperative the city recognize all volunteers and encourage others to follow their example; and WHEREAS, An antique and art festival has been a tradition in the Crabapple area since Nineteen Hundred and Sixty-Nine and is now an annual event organized by the Crabapple Community Association with the support of its sponsors including the City of Milton; and WHEREAS, On October 1st, the Crossroads at Crabapple Antique and Art Festival once again brought thousands of people to the Historic Crabapple Crossroads Community located within the city of Milton; and WHEREAS, As in previous years, the event helped promote the Crabapple Crossroads and the City of Milton and in doing so provided residents, business owners and visitors with a lasting, positive impression of the city and brought thousands of dollars worth of business to the Crabapple area; and WHEREAS, The Crabapple Community Association, and many other volunteers, including Sally Rich-Kolb, Tom Kolb, Slade Kolb, Ron Hardy, Mike Poe, Jane Ames, Tass Welch, Sharon Lockwood, Alison Parks, Steven Cash, Jason Wright, Matt Newman, Kat Walker, Beatriz Philips, Candy Deller, Amanda and Steve Quintana, Evelyn Hardy, Cindy Eade, Kelly Reinkemeyer, Peyton Jamison, Brielle Thompson, Patti Parker Silva, Tracy Eller, Helen and Gordon Benson, and Lisa Matteson gave their precious time and effort to make sure the event was a success. Now, therefore, we, the Mayor and City Council of the City of Milton, Georgia, hereby recognize and sincerely thank these volunteers for all their hard work in making the 2011 Crabapple Antique and Art Festival a successful event. Given under my hand and seal of the City of Milton, Georgia on this 7th day of November, 2011. ______________________ Joe Lockwood, Mayor City of Milton 13000 Deerfield Parkway, Milton, Georgia 30004 1 To: Honorable Mayor and City Council Members From: Matt Marietta, Fire Marshal Date: Submitted on October 3, 2011 for First Presentation at the November 7, 2011 Regular Council Meeting and the November 21, 2009 Regular Council Meeting for its Second Reading Agenda Item: Annual Re-enactment of the Ordinance Approving and Establishing the Regulation of Solid Waste Collection Services within the City of Milton, and Providing for the Scope and Nature of the Operation of Such Services City Manager’s Office Recommendation Re-approve the ordinance approving and establishing the regulation of solid waste collection services within the City of Milton, and direct City Staff to facilitate the contracting of such services to providers currently in operation and those who may become in operation. Background The original ordinance was passed on November 21, 2006 and has been renewed each successive year since its original enactment. The City’s authority to enter into solid waste franchise agreements emanates from this ordinance. Discussion This ordinance needs to be re-enacted each year in order to continue the validity of our solid waste franchise agreements. The following companies are on the current list of approved haulers: 1-800-Got Junk GW Lovelace Advanced Disposal M&M Waste Allegiance Sanitation The Dumpster Company American Disposal Services Red Oak Sanitation Arrow, Inc. Republic Services Community Waste Services Waste Management Custom Disposal Waste Pro Henry Edward Kincaid There have been very few service-related complaints on any of these companies over the past year. The tentative recommendation is re-approval of the list and Ordinance as it currently stands. However, three of the companies have not been submitting their quarterly reports/fees. Each of these have been contacted formally via certified mail, and the course of action City of Milton 13000 Deerfield Parkway, Milton, Georgia 30004 2 regarding their presence on the approved haulers list will be established by the time of the formal hearing on the reissuance of the Ordinance. Funding and Fiscal Impact The ordinance contains the requirement for an infrastructure maintenance fee to be paid to the City quarterly in the amount of 5% of gross revenues. The impact to residential constituents has been less than one dollar ($1.00) per month. Further, this revenue is dedicated to the maintenance of infrastructure, primarily the resurfacing of roadways. Alternatives If not re-enacted, the City would lose its authority to regulate solid waste collection within our corporate limits and the ability to collect franchise fees for the same activity, with the accompanying loss of revenue.

Staff notes that the location map indicates three parcels that are currently being combined. The subject site is developed with an existing church within a 3,800 square foot single story brick residence and two barns pursuant to U00-010. The applicant is proposing an 8,320 square foot sanctuary, 2 story building. Per the site plan the barns will be demolished. SITE PLAN ANALYSIS Based on the applicant’s site plan submitted to the Community Development Department on September 2, 2011, Staff offers the following considerations: PARKING REQUIREMENTS Section 64-1410, Off Street parking calculations for churches require 1 seat per 30 square feet in the largest assembly area. The applicant has indicated there will be temporary chairs and not permanent seating in the sanctuary. The size of the largest assembly area (sanctuary) is 1,482 square feet in size and will require a total of 50 parking spaces of which three will be handicapped. Prepared by the Community Development Department for the Mayor and City Council Meeting on November 7, 2011 10/31/2011 Page 14 of 22 U11-02/VC11-04 RA/ U00-010 The site plan indicates a total of 50 spaces of which 42 gravel parking spaces are currently developed. An additional five (5) gravel parking spaces will be provided and three (3) handicapped spaces. It appears that the site can meet the requirements of Sec. 64-1141(2)a. It requires that the applicant provide a 10 foot landscaped island for every 72 feet of double row length or 90 feet of single row length of parking spaces. Use Permit Standards The proposed site plan meets all of the development standards of Section 64- 1804 for churches. Northwest Fulton Overlay District LANDSCAPE STRIPS AND BUFFERS Sec 64-1141(1) (b.) requires a 10 foot landscape strip along all public streets. The site plan indicates compliance with this requirement. VC11-04 – Part 1 - To reduce the 75 foot undisturbed buffer and 10 foot improvement setback along the west property line where the existing parking lot encroaches to a 25 foot undisturbed buffer and 10 foot improvement setback . Section 64-1141 (3) (b.) of the Northwest Fulton Overlay District requires a 75 foot undisturbed buffer, with a 10 foot improvement setback, located adjacent to all AG-1 (Agricultural) zoning districts and all property zoned, used, or developed for residential uses. The applicant is requesting a concurrent variance to reduce the undisturbed buffer and 10 foot improvement setback to 25 feet along the west property line where six existing parking spaces are located. In addition, the encroachment is approximately 110 feet wide along the west property line that has a total length of 415 feet. There is a significant amount of vegetation providing a visual buffer from the adjacent property to the west. Staff notes that the parking was correctly located on the site, pursuant to Z00-010, prior to the adoption of the Northwest Fulton Overlay District’s requirement for larger undisturbed buffers. Therefore, it is an “exceptional condition not caused by the applicant” (Sec 64.1883) and Staff recommends VC11-04, Part 1 be APPROVED CONDITIONAL. VC11-04 – Part 2 - To reduce the 75 foot undisturbed buffer and 10 foot improvement setback along the north property line where the existing and proposed parking encroach to a 25 foot undisturbed buffer and 10 foot improvement setback Section 64-1141 (3) (b.) of the Northwest Fulton Overlay District requires a 75 foot undisturbed buffer, with a 10 foot improvement setback, located adjacent to all Prepared by the Community Development Department for the Mayor and City Council Meeting on November 7, 2011 10/31/2011 Page 15 of 22 U11-02/VC11-04 RA/ U00-010 AG-1 (Agricultural) zoning districts and all property zoned, used, or developed for residential uses. The applicant is requesting a concurrent variance to reduce the 75 foot undisturbed buffer and 10 foot improvement setback to 25 feet along the north property line where seven existing parking spaces are located. There is a significant amount of vegetation providing a visual buffer from the adjacent property to the north. Staff notes that the parking was correctly located on the site, pursuant to Z00-010, prior to the adoption of the Northwest Fulton Overlay District’s requirement for larger undisturbed buffers. Therefore, it is an “exceptional condition not caused by the applicant” (Sec 64.1883) and Staff recommends VC11-04, Part 2 be APPROVED CONDITIONAL. BUILDING SIZE, ORIENTATION, SETBACK, HEIGHT, SCALE, AND PARKING Sec 64-1145 (6) (c) requires that no on-site parking shall be located to the front of a building and/or between a building and the public right-of-way. The site plan meets this requirement for parking location. BUILDING HEIGHT AND ROOF PITCH Sec. 64-1145(4) of the Northwest Fulton Overlay District requires a maximum height limit of two stories with the maximum height 30 feet from average-finished grade to the bottom of the roof eave. The proposed building is 17 feet 6 inches in height from average-finished grade to the bottom of the eave at its highest point. VC11-04 – Part 3 To allow a 5 over 12 roof pitch (64-1146(3)(a)). The applicant is requesting to decrease the roof pitch from 8 over 12 to 5 over 12 and states that the request is intended to support the preservation of the farm-like, naturalistic ambience of the area. Secondly, the new structure will not be seen from New Providence Road. In addition, there will not be a steeple on the roof so that it will blend in with the naturalistic ambience of the area. It is Staff’s opinion that the requested variance would not offend the spirit or intent of the ordinance including but not limited to preserve and to ensure the harmony and compatibility of the character of the area including its physical appearance, natural setting and informal landscaping and to provide for the construction of buildings and spaces that are human in scale, welcoming and approachable. Therefore, based on the above consideration Staff recommends VC11-04 – Part 3 be APPROVED CONDITIONAL. BUILDING SETBACKS VC11-04 – Part 4 - To increase the front setback from 30 feet from the landscape strip to 250 feet (64-1145(3) (b)). Prepared by the Community Development Department for the Mayor and City Council Meeting on November 7, 2011 10/31/2011 Page 16 of 22 U11-02/VC11-04 RA/ U00-010 Sec. 64-1145 (3) (b) of the Northwest Fulton Overlay District requires a maximum 30-foot building setback from the edge of the required landscape strip and/or easements for all properties and lots located adjacent to public rights-of-way more than 400 feet from an intersection. It is Staff’s opinion that the requested variance would not offend the spirit or intent of the ordinance including but not limited to preserve and to ensure the harmony and compatibility of the character of the area including its physical appearance, natural setting and informal landscaping and to provide for the construction of buildings and spaces that are human in scale, welcoming and approachable. Secondly, there is an extraordinary and exceptional situation pertaining to the front portion of the property adjacent to New Providence Road where the strict application of the ordinance would create an unnecessary hardship. There is a dense woodland population of trees including hickory, umbrella magnolia, beech, sweet gum, dogwoods, American holly, loblolly pine and oak. It also represents a cross section of primarily native hardwoods and evergreen upland species of trees as well as native rhododendrons found in mature undeveloped woodlands in the area. The existing water oaks, maples and pines are specimen size per the City of Milton’s Tree Preservation Ordinance. Based on the conclusion of the above considerations for the concurrent variance, Staff recommends that VC11-04, Part 4 be APPROVED CONDITIONAL. PUBLIC INVOLVEMENT On September 28, 2011 the applicant was present at the Community Zoning Information Meeting held at the Milton City Hall. There were no members of the community in attendance. Public Participation Plan and Report The applicant has met the requirements of the Public Participation Plan and Report. The Public Participation meeting was held at the church on Thursday, October 6, 2011 between the hours of 7:00 p.m. and 8:00 p.m. There was no one who attended the meeting. Public Comments – Staff has received one phone call from a nearby property owner who was not in support of the proposed expansion. City of Milton Design Review Board Meeting – October 4, 2011 New building should be similar in style to the existing farm building/house as possible and incorporate materials. Prepared by the Community Development Department for the Mayor and City Council Meeting on November 7, 2011 10/31/2011 Page 17 of 22 U11-02/VC11-04 RA/ U00-010 Difference between the required 8/12 roof pitch, and the requested 5/12 pitch is about 7 vertical feet. Prefer higher pitch. Lower roof looks more industrial. Consider dormers, or some treatment to break up mass of roof. Consider wider vertical bands of Hardi Plank. Consider top of building vertical; bottom horizontal. Consider a 5” wide siding which is reflective of older buildings. Since the north side of the property is adjacent to residential, provide adequate landscaping to create buffer. Likes the idea of gravel parking lot/minimizing asphalt. Take into consideration the look of buildings across the street. Although the building is not prominent on the property now, it could be in the future as the church expands. ENVIRONMENTAL SITE ANALYSIS The Environmental Site Analysis (ESA) report is sufficient and satisfies the requirement of Section 64.2126. A field survey of the site was conducted by Staff to verify areas addressed in the ESA report. The proposed site does not contain wetlands, floodplains, streams, steep slopes, or sensitive plant and animal species. The new construction will not impact any historical or archeological entities. City of Milton Fire Marshal The site may need to provide an additional fire hydrant based on the size and location of the new building. City Arborist Existing trees are to remain throughout most of the site with the exception of the area of the proposed sanctuary. None of the trees currently located within this area are specimen or significant trees. Undisturbed buffers shall be required to be planted to buffer standards where sparsely vegetated. City of Milton Building Official Based on the type and number of occupancy, sprinkling of the building will be required. The City of Milton 2030 Comprehensive Plan The City of Milton 2030 Comprehensive Plan recommends that the subject site be developed as Agricultural, Equestrian, and Estate Residential (AEE). Prepared by the Community Development Department for the Mayor and City Council Meeting on November 7, 2011 10/31/2011 Page 18 of 22 U11-02/VC11-04 RA/ U00-010 Use Permit Considerations In the interest of the public health, safety and welfare, the Mayor and City Council may exercise limited discretion in evaluating the site proposed for a use that requires a Use Permit. In exercising such discretion pertaining to the subject use, the Mayor and City Council shall consider each of the following as outlined in Sec. 64-1552 of the Zoning Ordinance; Use Permit Considerations. Staff has reviewed said items pertaining to the subject use, and, offers the following comments: A. Whether the proposed use is consistent with the land use or economic development plans adopted by the Mayor and City Council: Provided the applicant complies with the Recommended Conditions of this petition and the Use Permit requirements of Sec.64-1804 of the Zoning Ordinance, the proposed development is consistent with the intent and following policy of the City of Milton 2030 Comprehensive Pl an: We will encourage development that is sensitive to the overall setting of the community and will contribute to our community’s character and sense of place. B. Compatibility with land uses and zoning districts in the vicinity of the property for which the use permit is proposed; If developed in accordance with Staff’s Recommended Conditions and the provisions of the Zoning Ordinance, the proposed expansion is expected to be compatible with other land uses in the surrounding area. C. Whether the proposed use may violate local, state and/or federal statutes, ordinances or regulations governing land development; The proposed use does not violate any known local, state and/or federal statutes, ordinances or regulations governing land development if approved with the recommended conditions. D. The effect of the proposed use on traffic flow, vehicular and pedestrian, along adjoining streets; The proposed use will not create congestion including the growing traffic on New Providence Road as cited in the applicant’s traffic study. The Milton Trail Plan indicates that the trail shall be on the east side of New Providence Road and not on the subject site. E. The location and number of off-street parking spaces; Prepared by the Community Development Department for the Mayor and City Council Meeting on November 7, 2011 10/31/2011 Page 19 of 22 U11-02/VC11-04 RA/ U00-010 As indicated in the Site Plan Analysis, the subject site requires a total of 50 parking spaces located which are located on the site per the Northwest Fulton Overlay District. In addition, the existing and proposed parking will be gravel with exception of the required handicapped parking spaces. F. The amount and location of open space; The applicant’s site plan indicates that approximately half of the subject site remains undeveloped. Staff is of the opinion that the proposed development will provide adequate open space for the proposed development. G. Protective screening; If developed in accordance with the requirements of the Zoning Ordinance and requested concurrent variances, the existing wooded areas and sparsely vegetated areas planted to buffer standards will provide adequate screening to the adjacent AG-1 (Agricultural) zoned properties. H. Hours and manner of operation; The applicant has stated that the operations for the church will be on Sunday from 9:30 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. and on Tuesday from 7:30 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. In addition, the building will be open for general administrative and counseling functions Monday through Friday, 9:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. I. Outdoor lighting; The applicant has minimal security lighting on site. Staff notes that the site shall be in compliance with Sec. 64-1144 of the Northwest Fulton Overlay District regarding outdoor lighting. J. Ingress and egress to the property. The applicant’s site plan indicates one curb cut on New Providence Road. The driveway will be required to be improved to meet minimum site distance standards and provide for two-way traffic. These requirements are reflected in the Recommended Conditions.

City of Milton 13000 Deerfield Parkway, Suite 107 Milton, GA 30004 1 To: Honorable Mayor and City Council Members From: Kathleen Field, Community Development Director Date: October 26, 2011 for the November 21, 2011, City Council Meeting (November 14, 2011 Work Session) Agenda Item: RZ11-18 – To create Article VI, Division 26 of the Zoning Ordinance (Chapter 64 of the City Code) – H (Historic) District CMO (City Manager’s Office) Recommendation: The Mayor and City Council to hear and approve the attached text amendment to create a new H (Historic) District, Article VI, Division 26 of the City of Milton Zoning Ordinance. Background: Article 18 of the City of Milton Zoning Ordinance “Historic Preservation Commission” was adopted by the City of Milton Mayor and City Council on June 21, 2010. Prior to the adoption of the HPC Ordinance, the Historic Preservation Committee discussed a tool to help preserve historic buildings in the City by adopting a Prior Use section. After further discussions, the Historic Preservation Committee chose an alternative method to help preserve historic buildings, a new zoning district called the H (Historic) district. This proposed new zoning district was included in the adopted Historic Preservation Commission Ordinance on June 21, 2010. After the adoption of the Ordinance, Staff forwarded it to Leigh Burns from the Georgia Historic Preservation Division for her review and comment. There were several items that she requested be removed from the adopted ordinance, one of which was the H (Historic) District stating that only issues of preservation and not land use issues are under the purview of the HPC. On October 17, 2011 the Mayor and City Council approved a text amendment that reflected those items. The Historic Preservation Commission recommended that the H (Historic) District be created outside of the HPC Ordinance to provide a tool for preserving historic buildings. Discussion: The purpose of the new zoning district is to allow for a Historic structure to be used, protected, renovated and preserved based on its historic value to the community. It allows a specific, previous use to continue in the structure where the use would be considered non-conforming as defined in the current Zoning Ordinance. In addition, It would be implemented in a similar fashion as a CUP (Community Unit Plan) or MIX (Mixed Use) whereas the applicant would propose the development standards for the subject site that allows flexibility to conform to grandfathered non-conforming sites. The applicant shall provide to Staff proof that the proposed use previously existed on the subject site and the use must continue in the original structure. In addition, the structure must be designated as Historic by the City of Milton Historic Preservation Commission (HPC) and must City of Milton 13000 Deerfield Parkway, Suite 107 Milton, GA 30004 2 be completed prior to the City accepting a rezoning application for the structure, unless otherwise determined by the Community Development Director it is in the best interest of the City to process the designation together because of the risk of probable demolition. Lastly, if the permitted use ceases to exist on the subject site for more than six (6) months the zoning shall revert back to the district in force at the adoption of the Zoning Ordinance. The H (Historic) District was first proposed and discussed at a joint work session with the Historic Preservation Commission and Planning Commission on August 24, 2011. The proposed text amendment was on the Community Zoning Information Meeting agenda on September 28, 2011. No one was in attendance. The Planning Commission reviewed the proposed ordinance on October 25, 2011 and had the following concerns with the proposed ordinance: It is their opinion that it is a tool for “spot zoning” and would create precedence for future non-residential zonings in the area. Questions regarding the reversion of the zoning district if the use ceases for more than 6 months. Requested that Staff provide an analysis in the staff report comparing the applicant’s request for development standards of the H (Historic) district with any concurrent variances required for a traditional zoning district for the site. After further deliberation, the Planning Commission recommended approval (5-1) of the text amendment with the changes proposed by the Planning Commission. A red lined version is provided that represents changes recommended by the Planning Commission. Alternatives: The Mayor and City Council may choose to approve, deny or defer the Text Amendment to create Article VI, Division 26 of the Zoning Ordinance (Chapter 64 of the City Code) – H (Historic) District to the City of Milton Zoning Ordinance.

In order to develop this property the city issued a Request for Qualifications (RFQ) to identify an architectural firm to assist with the design and development of the site. Discussion: The city issued a Request for Qualifications in July 2011 to identify qualified architectural firms to provide programming, construction documents and construction administration services related to the development of the Public Safety facility on SR 9. A selection committee made up of representatives from the Fire, Police, Public Works and Finance Departments was created to select a qualified firm that met the requirements established in the RFQ.

Upon review of qualifications received, the City anticipates awarding a single contract for the services required. Proiect Description: The City was incorporated in 2006 and is in the process of developing and expanding its public facilities. The city is proposing to develop a Public Safety Facility on a 5 acre tract located at 13690 State Highway 9, Milton, Georgia. The facility will consist of two primary structures - a single story, 14,000 A, 3 -bay fire station with administrative offices and a two story, 15,000 sf police station. The police station will house a combined court room/city council chamber. Infrastructure will include the construction of all parking and access drives, a fueling station and all necessary utilities and stormwater management facilities. The city intends to contract separately for the civil engineering design services. The selected Contractor will be required to coordinate all necessary work with the civil engineering firm. The City may consider use of LEED standards during the preliminary design, and the consultant will be asked to make recommendations and to provide cost differentials for consideration and approval. The architectural firm selected will be required to incorporate both state and national standards for fire, police, and court facility and operational requirements as determined by various legal, accrediting, and best practices guidelines and agencies. The project site currently shares access from Highway 9 with an office development to the south. Shared access with that facility will need to be maintained throughout the life of the project. The city is also currently working on a joint venture with the Fulton County School Board to provide access to Bethany Bend High School that is currently under construction on a parcel to the west of the proposed public safety facility. It is the intent of the City that the access to the high school be designed and constructed by the school board, but this project may require extensive communication and coordination with the Fulton County School Board and/or other Fulton County departments_ The Scope of Services may include, but are not limited to, the following: • Programming and project scope development, • Site adequacy confirmation based on previously developed site plan, • Development of floor plans and operational features, ■ Schematic design development, including structural elevations and landscape design, • Preparation of construction documents and specifications, including necessary landscape, irrigation and site lighting plans. The city will contract for civil engineering services separate from this RFQ, ■ Development of detailed project schedules and cost estimates, ■ Assistance during bidding and construction, • Construction monitoring and support, • Shop drawing review and approval, • Coordination and preparation of change orders, ■ Project meeting coordination and minutes preparation, Page 2 of 10 • Minimum of one (1) meeting on site per week during construction phase, • Internal and regulatory agency project approval coordination. It is anticipated that Sub -consultants may be needed for: • Electrical Engineering, • Mechanical Engineering, ■ Structural Engineering, • On and/or Off Site Utility Services, ■ Fire Protection Engineering, • Physical Facility Security Engineering, • Landscape/Irrigation Design. The selected consultant shall be prepared to provide the entire scope of services listed above.

ARTICLE II – MAINTENANCE AND OPERATION COVENANTS 2.01 Maintenance and Repair. Upon completion of construction, FCS shall operate, maintain and repair the Driveway and Sidewalks and lighting along the Driveway and Sidewalks in a good functional condition, and FCS shall perform the following routine maintenance: a) Landscape and mulch the FCS property contiguous to the Driveway and Sidewalk; and mow the grass located in said area on an as needed basis. b) Sweep the Driveway and Sidewalks; and remove debris and trash located thereon on an as needed basis c) Maintain and replace the lighting and light bulbs; and pay the electric bills for said lighting. d) Remove snow and / or ice on the Driveway if less than one inch in thickness. e) Repair for driveway for potholes and striping Upon FCS’ completion of construction of the Basin 1 and Basin 2 stormwater facilities, the City shall and hereby does assume the obligation to inspect, maintain and repair the stormwater facilities. Upon FCS’ completion of construction of the Basin 1 and Basin 2 stormwater facilities (collectively the “Stormwater Facility”), the City shall operate, maintain and repair the Stormwater Facility in a structurally sound condition so that it satisfies the drainage function for which it is intended; maintain the Stormwater Facility in a clean and safe condition so as not to constitute a hazard or nuisance to the public; and shall maintain the Stormwater Facility in accordance with all applicable rules, standards and regulations now or hereinafter enacted. In addition, City agrees to and shall perform the following routine maintenance: a) Inspect and clean the Stormwater Facility at least bi-annually. b) Clean the contiguous surrounding area of the Stormwater Facility on a quarterly basis. 2.02 Obligation to Share Costs. Each party shall pay its own construction costs for the improvements and facilities constructed on the property owned by said party. Following completion of construction, however, FCS and the City each covenant and agree to equally split all costs incurred in operating, maintaining, repairing and improving the constructed Driveway, Sidewalks and Stormwater Facility; and the lighting along the Driveway and Sidewalks. Thus, the parties agree to and shall split the maintenance and operation costs incurred under Art icle 2.01 hereinabove. Each party shall invoice the other party on at least a quarterly basis for one -half (1/2) of the operational, maintenance and repair costs, actually incurred by the said party during the preceding quarter. The party receiving the invoice shall pay the invoiced sum in full within forty-five (45) days following receipt of the invoice. Each party shall provide the other party with copies of or access to the receipts and documents supporting the invoice within thirty (30) days followin g receipt of request. The parties shall also split post construction capital expenditures reasonably necessary to keep and maintain the Driveway, Sidewalks, lighting and Stormwater Facility operating in accordance with design specification. Thus, for example, following the expiration of the paving warranty in the event the Driveway reasonably requires repaving then the parties shall equally pay the repaving costs. The parties agree to and shall jointly establish a n annual budget estimating the capital expenditures anticipated during the upcoming fiscal year, for the maintenance of the constructed Driveway, Sidewalks and Stormwater Facility; and the lighting along the Driveway and Sidewalks, or any portion thereof. Said budget shall be established by July 1st of each calendar year. The parties shall strive to split and pay all capital expenditures as incurred. If a party pays a capital expenditure in full, then said party shall invoice the other party for reimbursement of one -half of the expenditure within thirty (30) days following completion of the capital improvement, and the party receiving the invoice shall pay the invoiced sum in full within forty-five (45) days following receipt of the invoice. Each party shall provide the other party with copi es of or access to the receipts and documents supporting the invoice within thirty (30) days following receipt of request. Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, the parties specially stipulate and agree that: (a) Either party may elect to provide more than the minimum requirements set forth in Article 2.01 at said party’s own expense without reimbursement by the other party. For example, the FCS may elect to clean the Stormwater Facility in addition to the bi-annual cleaning by the City, however, the expense incurred by FCS will be FCS’ sole expense without reimbursement by the City. (b) By June 30th of each year, the parties shall reconcile and close out all shared expenses and capital expenditures incurred by either party on or before May 31st of said year. Expenses and capital expenditures incurred on or prior to May 31st shall be invoiced in accordance with the procedures contained hereinabove and closed out no later than June 30th of the following year. 2.03. Notice of Construction on City Property. The City Property is currently undeveloped. Prior to the final approval of the final plans and specifications of the construction of improvements on the City Property, City agrees to and shall provide FCS with a copy of the final civil si te development drawings for review and comment by FCS. FCS shall have thirty (30) days from the date of receipt of the final site development drawings to review and comment on the drawing by written comment to the City. If the FCS does not issue any written comment to the City on the drawings within said thirty (30) day period, then City shall be deemed as having approved said drawings. City also agrees to and shall (a) notify FCS prior to commencing any construction on the City Property under the final civil site development drawings and to provide FCS with anticipated dates and length of construction; (b) establish and require all construction vehicles use a temporary driveway to access and exit the City Property during the construction, so as not to unduly burden the Driveway. If for any reason the Driveway is utilized by any construction vehicles to access and exit the City Property during construction, then City specially stipulates and agrees to and shall repair any and all damage caused to the Driveway by said construction vehicles at City’s sole expense. City and FCS further agree to cooperate in good faith with one another and to use best efforts to coordinate construction on the City Property and on the School Property so as to minimize disruptio n to the use and operation of the other party’s parcel. ARTICLE III – USE RESTRICTIONS 3.01 Use Restrictions.
