Mr. Danko has continued operations at the marina on behalf of the City while the City prepares to implement the improvements. City Administrator Maxeiner noted in light of recent discussions on how best to address wastewater treatment issues, it appears the City will not be in a position to use the marina property for improvements at the CWWTP during the coming boating season, precipitating extension of the lease for another year.

A major office tenant has expressed interest, and potential for a banquet hall and a warehouse exists. Director of Community Development Napolitano iterated to Council, based upon discussion of the terms and conditions of the Annexation Agreement proposed at the Council meeting on December 30, 2002, the following items have been modified: • The sanitary sewer capacity will not be reserved. • The number of residential units permitted per year will be 60 (or higher based on the number of units in the last building issued a permit for that year. This will result in an approximate 4-year build out. • A hold harmless clause relating to the Pintozzi Recapture Agreement be inserted into the agreement. The City would be held harmless from any liability the City may have for failure to collect reimbursement of money by the applicant for the development: The applicant is not connecting to improvements made by Pintozzi; therefore no recapture is required. The hold harmless language protects the City's interests. • Includes language to clarify road improvements and contributions to be made by the applicant as follows: o Allows for construction of a two-lane road, with a center median, as the collector road through the property. Construction of this road would allow ease of expansion when the property to the east is developed. o Reserves land for future road connections to the north and south. o Requires the applicant to install a traffic signal at the proposed intersection with Route 31, upon meeting warrants, and allows recapture of a portion of the cost from future development.
