BACKGROUND INFORMATION: Gateway North Subdivision, Unit No. 2, is the second phase of the multi -phase residential development located west of Westgate Drive and south of Kettleman Lane, as shown on Exhibit A. Unit No. 2 consists of 107 single-family, residential lots. The improvement agreement for the project, approved by Council on December 18, 2019, requires the installation of all interior subdivision public improvements, a neighbor park, street improvements on Lower Sacramento Road, underground water pipe relocation, and street improvements on Kettleman Lane. At the request of the developer, Blossom Land Company, the City Council agreed to partially accept the completed portion of the public improvements on May 5, 2021 to allow the homes within the subdivision to be built and occupied. The remaining public improvements on the neighborhood park (Bob Johnson Park) and Lower Sacramento Road are now complete and ready to be accepted by the City. All the required improvements have been constructed in accordance with the approved improvement plans and City standards. Developer provided a two-year warranty bond to cover all the public improvements under this final acceptance. In addition, the developer is required to execute a Landscape Maintenance Agreement to maintain the neighborhood park for two years. Staff recommends the City Council approve the acceptance of Gateway North Subdivision, Unit No. 2, public improvements and authorize the City Manager to execute Landscape Maintenance Agreement. FISCAL IMPACT: There will be an increase in long-term maintenance costs for public infrastructure and City services, such as police, fire, and parks. This cost will be partially funded by proceeds from the Community Facilities District No. 2007-1.
