Summary

The Huxley City Council on Aug. 13 approved three resolutions authorizing Veenstra & Kimm for construction review work on Anthem Townhomes and 120 South development and accepted Anthem Plat 2, all by unanimous roll-call votes.

The Huxley City Council unanimously approved three development-related resolutions on Aug. 13 that authorize engineering review services and accept a final plat for a new Anthem subdivision.

Council passed Resolution No. 24-057 approving a professional services agreement with Veenstra & Kimm, Inc. to provide construction review for the Anthem Townhomes public improvements. The council then approved Resolution No. 24-058, an amendment to a professional services agreement with Veenstra & Kimm for construction review of the 120 South, LLC development. Finally, the council adopted Resolution No. 24-059 accepting the final plat, platted easements and an irrevocable letter of credit for Anthem Plat 2.

The motions were made and seconded on the consent/business portion of the agenda and recorded on roll call as Mulder, Echer, Roberts, Murphy and Rigler voting yes on each measure. Forrest Aldrich of engineering firm Veenstra & Kimm was present on the agenda and later reported that work on the city’s Water Treatment Plant is expected to be completed by the end of next month.

Why it matters: the agreements secure engineering construction review services needed for public improvements in upcoming housing projects and accepting the Anthem Plat 2 advances lot availability for development and related infrastructure. The council’s actions set the administrative and engineering framework needed before on-site construction and utility work can proceed.

Details: Resolution No. 24-057 (Anthem Townhomes) and No. 24-058 (120 South amendment) authorize Veenstra & Kimm to perform construction observation and related services under the terms presented to the council. Resolution No. 24-059 accepts the final plat for Anthem Plat 2 and requires an irrevocable letter of credit for the public improvements specified in the plat documents.

Votes at a glance: the council approved the three resolutions by unanimous roll-call votes (Mulder, Echer, Roberts, Murphy, Rigler voting yes).
