Meadowlake Beach subdivision moves forward with benefit-district authorization and engineering contracts
Summary
The commission previewed authorizing a benefit district and two professional engineering service agreements for the Meadowlake Beach addition. Two contracts with Bachmann were listed at $55,800 and $24,200; a vacation request related to adjoining City of Wichita plats was also noted.
Sedgwick County staff on Sept. 3 reviewed several items related to the Meadowlake Beach addition subdivision, including authorizing a benefit district, two professional engineering agreements and a vacation request tied to unused street right-of-way.
Staff said the benefit district item has been in development for a lengthy time and corresponds to consent items dealing with the Meadowlake Beach project. The commission packet lists two engineering service agreements with Bachmann: one for $55,800 and a second for $24,200.
A vacation request was described as an effort to vacate a portion of unimproved right-of-way that abuts the City of Wichita. Staff explained that when the subdivision was originally platted, right-of-way was dedicated on one side but not on the adjacent side; the unused strip has remained unimproved and borders a private property owner. The vacation item concerns that unused portion and any ingress/egress considerations.
Staff also noted related items on consent (easements and other routine matters) and said neighbors have been engaged on the vacation issue.
Next steps: the benefit district authorization and engineering agreements will be on the upcoming agenda; staff and commissioners may discuss the vacation request with affected property owners and City of Wichita staff.
