M M r Control District canals which serve the entrances to their subdivision and to also upgrade their local roads. They are requesting that the county staff design, permit, and construct the improvements and assess the property owners 100% of the cost. In the case of Sundowners Subdivision, 53rd Avenue south of 16th Street, the Board has previously approved placing the project on the Petition Paving list. In the past month, however, a portion of the large drainage culvert at the entrance to the subdivision has failed. The property owners have $9,000 available to replace the culvert and headwalls. They are requesting the county's assistance in purchasing the pipe, replacing the headwalls, and restoring the pavement over the pipe using the county's annual contracts. The county can purchase the materials at a lesser cost due to our annual contracts for pipe and headwalls. The Road and Bridge Division will perform the work, and will include the labor in the road resurfacing work to be scheduled later in the year. The road work is project number nine in the Petition Paving list. The three attached recent petitions from the property owners in Westside Racquet Club Subdivision are for the following: Petition 11 - Replace Drainage Pipe and Headwalls in Drainage District Canal. 100% (18 property owners) signed petition. Petition 12 - Resurface/Repair Ad Avenue and Game Street. 92.3% (12 of 13 property owners) signed petition. The only property owner dissenting is the owner of a corner lot who does not want a double assessment based on front footage. Petition #3 - Resurface/Repair Deuce Court. 60% (3 of 5 property owners) signed petition. The Westside Racquet Club owner may agree to support the paving project after a firm cost estimate and assessment roll is prepared. One property owner is against the paving assessment. It should be noted that the streets are private and there is no Homeowner's Association with jurisdiction over the streets; therefore, in order for the streets to become public streets maintained by the county, all property owners would have to deed their rights to the street. This may not be possible to obtain; however, this will not affect the work contemplated under Petition #1 which is the only subject for Commission action at this time. ALTERNATIVES AND ANALYSIS The property owners in both subdivisions are anxious for the county to replace the entrance culverts on an emergency basis since the culverts are deteriorating. They are all agreeable to being assessed 100% of the costs. In the case of Sundowner's Subdivision, the public hearing will occur later this year, but the -property owners are willing to front the direct costs to the county of purchasing the pipe and headwalls. The county would supply the labor and include this cost in the assessment project later this year. The residents of Westside Racquet Club are willing to pay the cost of hiring a consultant to expedite the design and permitting, if necessary so that the entrance culvert can be replaced under a 100% assessment. The petitions for street resurfacing/repair will be placed on the regular petition paving list. FEBRUARY 7, 1995 96 tkooK 94 F,A;;�
