Approval of Amended Assessment Agreement for Autumn Path between the City of Rosemount and the Property Owners EXECUTIVE SUMMARY City Council Regular Meeting: December 1, 2020 AGENDA ITEM: Approval of Amended Assessment Agreement for Autumn Path between the City of Rosemount and the Property Owners AGENDA SECTION: Consent PREPARED BY: Kim Lindquist, Community Development Director AGENDA NO. 6.k. ATTACHMENTS: Amended Assessment Agreement APPROVED BY: LJM RECOMMENDED ACTION: Motion to Approve Amended Assessment Agreement SUMMARY On October 20, 2020 the City Council approved the assessment agreement for Autumn Path between the City and the property owners, the McMenomy family. The agreement allows deferral of the special assessments for 10 years or until development. Development was defined as an application for subdivision, lot division or building permit. Unfortunately, that was not the intention, and instead, staff believes development should be defined as sale of the property or recording of a final plat or lot division. The action to amend the agreement will allow any developer to apply for approvals and receive entitlements without having the pay the deferred assessments. As written, the language discourages working with a developer since a simple application for planning review would have triggered payment of the assessment. The property owners are working with a development company that would like to formally apply for subdivision approval in the near future. This modification would allow application without penalty. The modification found in the document is listed below: 1. Payment of the Assessment, without interest accrual, is due ten (10) years from the effective date of this Agreement or upon development of the Property, whichever occurs first. For purposes of this Agreement, “development” means any sale of the property or filing of a final plat or lot division of any portion of the property with Dakota County. application by Owner, or Owner’s agents or representatives, for a lot division, plat or building permit related to the Property. The effective date of the Agreement is the date that it is approved by the Rosemount City Council.
