Scholz Homes Representatives from Scholz Homes stated they were happy
(continued) with the results of their meeting with the staff of the
City of Newport Beach; however, they were still concerned
with meeting their deadlines in the first phase of their
development. They stated further the desire to still be
able to call upon the Costa Mesa Sanitary District Board
in the event problems arise. Attorney June asked when
construction was scheduled to begin. Mr. Devlin mentioned
that the developer would be responsible for installing
all the sewers. However, he stated it would be possible
to protect the developer through a reimbursement agreement,
so that developers wishing to connect to the sewers in
the future would be responsible for paying their pro rata
share for the cost of these lines.
After discussion, the Board informed the representatives
present as follows: The Board does not wish to enter
into service contracts with developers as private indi-
viduals. Any service contract will be with the munici-
pality involved. Mr. Peckenpaugh asked if they would be
able to come back to the Board with the Scholz Homes
original request if they run into difficulty. President
Porter stated they would discuss a service contract only
with the City of Newport Beach, or with the City of
Newport Beach and Scholz Homes, Inc. jointly.
Adjournment Upon motion by Director Rima, seconded by Director
Glockner, and unanimously carried, the meeting adjourned
