Igoe, it City Manager November 17, 1998 Mr. Bradley Miller Managing Director Archstone Communities Six Peidmont Center, Sixth Floor Atlanta, GA 30305 Re: Cameron Gatrdens/ PuSgStation #33 . a wised Dear Mr. Miller, en This letter is the result of a recent conference call between you, your engineering n9 consultant, and several of the Utilities Department staff. It Is written as a summary of the discussion and as a memorandum of understanding between the City and the Developer (Archstone Communities, formerly known as Security Capital Atlantic) regarding the Cameron Gardens Project, and specifically the construction of a new Pump Station #33. As I understand the situation, the existinci Pump Station #33 serves the area in which Cameron Gardens is being constructed. When the Cameron Gardens project (formerly known as Coral Cove) was initially disrnussed,it was recognized that, due to the age and condition of the pump station equipment, a new pump station would have to be constructed. In the original Water and Sewer Developer's Agreement for this project, it was agreed that the City would construct the pump station, and the Developer would provide the design of the pump station and inspection and contribute $10,000 towards the construction. Subsequently, to accelerate the construction schedule of the pump station it was agreed through a letter amendment that the Developer would construct the station and the City would reimburse the Developer for the costs from the collected CIAO fees for the project. As part of the discussions surrounding the development of this amendment, it was agreed that Phase I of the development could go forward, but that Phase Il would be predicated on the completion of the construction of Pump Station #33. equal opportunity Employer • Page 2 November 17, 1998 Bradley Miller Currently, Phase I is complete, but due to a number of reasons including design changes, the bidding processes, and the proposed costs, the pump station has not been constructed_ The Developer is anxious to proceed with the completion of the five buildings in Phase 11, and the City wants to ensure that the pump station will be constructed in a timely fashion. Therefore, a number of discussions have taken place over the last few weeks, as well as a review of the condition of the existing pump station. On October 20, 1998, a conference call was held between Michael Ging of Archstone Communities, Joe Kieth, Consulting Engineer and three Tamarac Utilities Staff Members: Tony Rabbat, Scott London and Michael Woika. In the conference call, it was confirmed that the capacity of the existing pump station is not currently a factor in determining if F'hase 11 should be allowed to go forward; the existing pump station has more than enough capacity to handle the flows from the proposed construction. However, it way; also confirmed that although a back- up pump is available at the Utilities Building, the pump station is currently operating on a single pump, and cycling frequently. Further. it was confirmed that the base anchor mounts for the second pump are not secure in the concrete base_ The conference call also confirmed that Archstone Communities is still committed to building the pump station, but would like to proceed with the completion and obtaining certificates of occupancy for the five buildings in Phase II at the same time as the construction proceeds on Pump Station #33. it was recognized that the Developer has already paid the City all CIAC fees for the both phases of the project. Therefore the fo lowing understanding was reached between the City and the Developer regarding the Phase II construction of Cameron Gardens and the construction of Pump Station *33: The Utilities Engineer will meet with Joe ICeith In the next few days to finalize the pump station design. Joe Keith will makes all resulting changes in the design plans and specifications_ 2. Based on the new design documents, the. Developer will obtain new bids for the pump station construction. It was agread that the cost of ContraVest, the general contractor on the site, would not be part of the construction cost to be repaid by the City. C� Page 3 November 17, 1998 Bradiey Miller 3. Joe Keith will contact the DNRP on any pump station design changes, and attempt to receive an administrative chantle to the existing permit. 4. A performance bond for the full amount of the pump station construction will be required by the City. This bond can be supplied by the contractor awarded the pump station construction, or by Archstone Communities prior to the contractor being selected. If Archstone Communities elects to supply the bond, the bond amount will be$250,000. 5. To ensure that the Developer continues the process of constructing the pump station, the Certificates of Occupancy (C.(].$) for the buildings in Phase 11 will be issued when certain pump station construction events are reached: a. The Utilities Department will approve the C.D.s on two buildings after the Developer concurrence to this memorandum of understanding. b. The Utilities Department will approve the C.O.s on two buildings after the performance bond is submitted- C . The Utilities Department will approve the C.O. on the last building when the bids for the pump station are received, d. The Utilities Department will approve the C.O.s of the garage structures for Phase II as completed, since the completion of these structures does not impact the wastewater flow to ':he pump station. The City will complete some remediation of the existing pump station including the installation of a steel base plate to facilitate operation of the existing pump station in the interim period_ This will be at no cost to the Developer. It is understood that this agreement is based on a number of assumptions regarding the condition and capacity of the existng pump station. Should the daily peak flow at the existing pump station exceed 210 gpm on three occasions, or should the structural or mechanical integrity of the existing pumps station be significantly compromised, upon notice from the City, Archsl:one Communities agrees not to rent or occupy any additional units, including units in buildings previously issued C.O.s. • • Page 4 November 17, 1998 Bradley Miller Upon completion of the Pump Station #33 improvements, the City will release any performance bond issued by Archstone Communities. Further, upon completion of the Pump Station #33, Archstone Communities will be considered to have fulfilled all obligations under this agreement and Archstone Communities will therefore be released from any obligations or restrictions contained within this agreement.
