4genda Item 2. Consideration of Change Order and Payment Request -
Orfei & Sons, Inc. on 1976 Sewer and Water Project.
Ire" �, Enclosed, you will find a recommendation for payment
GzA,rl to Orfei and Sons for $47,434.13.
This payment is for change order number 3 covering
V Qvarious extras as spelled out in John Badalieh's
letter of December 27, 1976 (copy enclosed). Addi-
`Jsy %%v tionally this payment would allow for a 5Z retainage
�0 until the job is complete. Orr-Schelen-Mayeron is
recommending a 5£ retainage as compared to the normal
bj3 5a4o a 10% retainage as the only remaining portions are some
sodding, seeding and bituminous work which will be
fP 0 done next spring. As you may recall on the 1975 pro-
ject, the same agreement was reached.
� lg
,k9 According to Keith Nelson, the final quantity over-
* run should be less than 5% of the contracted amount.
POSSIBLE ACTION: Consideration of payment approval.

Agenda Item 4. Consideration of landsumoln# Ovdlnanve- Amendment.
This i.trm was reviewed and discussed at the- ;joint- muting
oi' the Planning Commission and City Council.- Major item
-2-
of discussion was the provision relating to percentage
that developer should put into landscaping exclusive
of sod and seeding and also the bond requirements.
There appeared to be general consensus to require that
the developer should put l % of development costs (or
$1$00, whichever is greater) into landscaping exclusive
of sod and seeding. Furthermore, a one year bond for
100% of any required uncompleted landscaping shall be
provided at the time of issuance of a certifi.cate of
occupancy. This would allow a developer to obtain a
certificate of occupany if he was unable to complete
the landscaping. It was felt a bond was not mandatory
to insure the landscaping was maintained in good care
as the initial investment is substantial enough that
the developer would probably maintain it out of self
interest.
If this ordinance were applied to our city hall for
examples landscaping (exclusive, of sodding and seeding)
would be: $3300 which appears to be a reasonable amount.
Since Monticello does not have a current ordinance of
this nature, it may be well to allow for a waiver of
a portion of the requirement by council action. This
would allow credit for existing shrubbery or trees and
also provide flexibUity i.f the developer has .legiti-
mate justi.f ication for not providing the entire amount
required.
POSSIBLE ACTION: Consideration of amending landscaping
ordinance by adding the following requirements:
1. All, buildings shall be finished on all four aides
with consistent architectural. quality, material a
,41 and design.
2. Thi~ee percent of the service ares within an oi'i'-
�� street parking area shall be landscaped with
grass and/or decorative( surface tvratment — crr.ra
and shrubbery for all developments except mingle
family dwell.i,ngs.
One. percent erf (lin development casts, or $l COO which-
ever is greatrr+, as de-termined by the building permit
valuation shall be devoted to landscapes exclusive
f
osod and walkways. A bond shall be "Aquired for
1001) . o!' said landscaping not completed at Ahe t lar
of the isauanoe of the certificate or occupancy.
-3-
This, bond shall be for one year at the end of which
the city has the authority to complete the necessary
landscaping.
The city coun6il may waive any portion of the -pro-
visions of items 2 and 3 if the developer candemon_
tstrate justification for exemption. Will V_LC*V^WA.JA1%_1-J y 0�u...ns C,0040000:&N
