Park City approves paving, water and sewer assessments for Briar Brook Phase 1
Summary
The council approved three resolutions authorizing paving, water distribution and sanitary sewer improvements for Briar Brook Second Addition Phase 1, with estimated costs of $1,125,000 (paving), $325,000 (water) and $580,000 (sewer).
The Park City Council on May 13 approved three separate resolutions authorizing Phase 1 infrastructure improvements in the Briar Brook Second Addition: paving improvements ($1,125,000), water distribution system improvements ($325,000) and sanitary sewer collection improvements ($580,000). The three resolutions establish the improvement districts, apportion costs to lots within the district, and authorize the work under Kansas statute.
City staff presented the petitions and maps and said the petitioners represented owners of more than one-half of the area liable for assessments and requested the improvements be made without a separate hearing as allowed by K.S.A. 12-6a01. The paving resolution covers construction of pavement on portions of Persimmon Court, Mulberry Court, Brewer Oak Court and part of Hidden Lane and associated stormwater work; the water resolution covers mains, valves, hydrants and meters; the sewer resolution covers collection mains, manholes and cleanouts.
Councilmember Troy Hill moved to approve the paving resolution (Res. 1253-2025) and Charlie Davidson seconded; that measure passed 6-0. Charlie Davidson moved to approve the water distribution resolution (Res. 1254-2025) with George Glover seconding; that passed 6-0. Charlie Davidson moved to approve the sanitary sewer resolution (Res. 1255-2025) with Jim Schrader seconding; that passed 6-0.
Staff said the method of assessment is equal between all lots in the district and that the improvement district would be assessed 100% of the listed cost with 0% paid by the city for the specific paving item. The paving resolution includes a note that the estimated cost will increase pro rata at 1% per month after adoption. The listed improvement districts were described specifically by lot and block in the staff report.
Council did not record any substantive public opposition at the hearing and accepted the staff recommendation to proceed. The resolutions authorize staff to move forward with engineering and assessment processes under state law; individual lot owners will be subject to future assessment calculations once final costs are determined.
