AGENDA ITEM DETAILS
RECOMMENDATION:
City staff recommends approving relocation of existing City trunk utilities, vacation of existing drainage and
utility easements, and approval of a Site Improvement Performance Agreement.
ARE YOU SEEKING APPROVAL OF A CONTRACT? IS A PUBLIC HEARING REQUIRED?
Yes
Yes, to be held by City Council 14 March 2022.
BACKGROUND/JUSTIFICATION:
Duke Realty Limited Partnership has submitted plans for expansion of the Room & Board Distribution
building on Lot 1, Block 1, Gateway North 4th Addition. The expansion will add 221,100 square feet to the
existing principal building for a total area of 700,000 square feet, which was approved with the initial site
development approvals by the City Council on 23 June 2004.
The expansion of the principal building requires relocation of existing trunk sewer forcemain utilities that
are within drainage and utility easements across the subject site following the former alignment of 65th
Street, which was vacated. The City Engineer has reviewed plans to relocate the existing forcemain, which
will be completed at the developer’s cost. The drainage and utility easements overlaying the existing trunk
utilities will be vacated as they will no longer serve a public purpose following the relocation of the utilities.
A new drainage and utility easement is to recorded by document over the relocated trunk utilities to
secure the location rights and allow access by the City for maintenance.
The City Attorney has drafted a Site Improvement Performance Agreement regarding the undertaking and
completion of the utility relocation including provision of financial securities and payment of City fees.

Utility Plan
1. The watermain lowering at station 105+25 can’t be done without some vertical bends to avoid a
conflict with the forcemain to the south of the hydrant crossing. But the vertical bends to the
north shall be eliminated and a more gradual dipping of the watermain shall be provided. The
attached detail will be needed for the vertical bends.
2. The vertical bends on the watermain near station 108+00 shall be eliminated and the watermain
shall be lowed/dipped more gradually. (Note, no bends are being called out and the bends shown
in the profile may be an effect from the vertical/horizontal scale).
3. The hydrant lead at 108+00 will likely need a vertical bend to get back to the 8’ depth once its past
the forcemain unless an approximate 3’ hydrant extension is available.
4. The watermain and existing storm crossing at the tee near station 110+75 calls for 24” of
separation but now information on how this is going to be done is in the plan. The proposed top
of watermain and existing storm invert elevations shall be provided.

SITE IMPROVEMENT PERFORMANCE
AGREEMENT
(ROOM & BOARD)
THIS SITE IMPROVEMENT PERFORMANCE AGREEMENT (“Agreement”) dated
____________________, 2022, by and between the CITY OF OTSEGO, a Minnesota municipal corporation
(“City”) and DUKE REALTY LIMITED PARTNERSHIP, an Indiana limited partnership (the “Developer”).
1. BACKGROUND.
A. The Developer has submitted to the City a site plan and conditional use permit
application for property in the City of Otsego, Minnesota located at 6651 Queens Avenue NE, legally
described as Lot 1, Block 1, Gateway North 4th Addition, Wright County, Minnesota according to the
recorded plat thereof (hereinafter referred to as the “Subject Property”).
B. The development of the above described property includes the 221,100 square foot
expansion of an existing 478,900 square foot warehouse and distribution facility, relocation of existing City
trunk sewer forcemain and trunk watermain, and installation of new public and private utilities.
2
220724v6 Room & Board
C. The removal of the existing trunk sewer forcemain and watermain shall only be
completed after the new trunk lines are installed and all testing has passed. Shutting off of the existing trunk
lines shall be done so as to minimize the down time and in cooperation with the City utility department. The
City will not issue any building permits until the site improvement plans are approved and signed by the City
Engineer.
D. The Developer shall install and complete the Improvements by December 31, 2022.
For purposes of this agreement, the Improvements are the site improvements required by the Agreement,
specifically the erosion control, grading, trunk sewer forcemain, trunk watermain, lateral watermain, private
storm sewer, and private driveway/parking areas, landscaping and similar improvements within the Plat;
provided, however, that the Developer and the City acknowledge the construction of a 221,100 square foot
building, is expressly excluded from the definition of Improvements under this Agreement.
E. The Developer may start construction of the building prior to the relocation of the
existing trunk forcemain and watermain only outside of the existing and new utility easements. Once the
relocated trunk facilities are fully functioning and have been approved for use by the City Engineer, the
existing easement(s) within the building footprint may be vacated and construction of that portion of the
building expansion can proceed.
2. CONDITIONS OF APPROVAL. This Agreement is a condition of City site plan approval and
will be recorded against the Subject Property.
3. PLANS. The Subject Property shall be developed in accordance with the following plans
which are on file with the City. The plans shall not be attached to this Agreement. If the plans vary from the
written terms of this Agreement, the written terms shall control. The plans are:
Plan A – Site Plan
Plan B – Grading and Drainage and Erosion Control Plan
Plan C – Utility Plan
Plan D – Landscape Plan
Plan E – New Building Floor Plan
3
220724v6 Room & Board
Plan F – New Building Elevations Plan
Plan G – Lighting Photometric Plan
Plan H – Traffic Control Plan
No work can occur outside of the areas indicated on the plans without modifying this
Agreement or obtaining a separate grading permit.
4. EROSION CONTROL. The Developer is responsible for obtaining an MPCA Construction
Permit for the site as well as developing a SWPPP for the site prior to issuance of a building permit. The
permit requires that all erosion and sediment BMPs be clearly outlined in a SWPPP. Changes made
throughout construction must be documented in the SWPPP. All basin slopes and slopes adjacent to
wetlands must have erosion control blanket installed.
Additional erosion control measures may be required during construction as deemed necessary by
City staff. Any additional measures required shall be installed and maintained by the Developer.
5. LICENSE. Developer hereby grants the City, its agents, employees, officers and contractors
a license to enter the Subject Property to perform all work and inspections deemed appropriate by the City
in conjunction with site development.
6. CONSTRUCTION ACCESS. Construction traffic access and egress for grading, public utility
construction, and public street construction is restricted to access the Subject Property as approved by the
City Engineer.
7. FORCEMAIN. The Developer shall at their sole cost relocate existing trunk sewer forcemain
to locations shown on the site plan improvements. The utility design is subject to review and approval of the
City Engineer. The Developer shall post a $445,815.00 security for the utility service relocation and
reconnection to the public utilities with this agreement.
8. WATERMAIN. The Developer shall at their sole cost install new trunk watermain and
lateral watermain with the site plan improvements. The utility design is subject to review and approval
of the City Engineer. The Developer shall post a $301,700.00 security for the utility service connection
to the public utilities with this agreement.
4
220724v6 Room & Board
9. STORM SEWER. The Developer at their sole cost shall construct private storm sewer
to convey the stormwater runoff from the proposed improvements to the stormwater management
basin.
Final locations and sizes of all storm sewer facilities will be reviewed by City staff with the
building permit plans.
10. CITY ENGINEERING ADMINISTRATION AND CONSTRUCTION OBSERVATION. The
Developer shall pay for construction observation performed by the City Engineer. Construction observation
shall include part or full time inspection of proposed public utilities as determined necessary by the City
Engineer and will be billed on hourly rates estimated to be eight percent (8%) of the estimated construction
cost or a $10,000.00 minimum.
11. SEWER CONNECTION CHARGE AND WATER CONNECTION CHARGE. The Developer
shall pay to the City required sewer connection charges. The Sewer Connection Charge shall be collected
per Section 8-1-6-C of City Code for all uses and must be paid prior to the issuance of a building permit
based on the fee schedule in effect at the time of application for the building permit.
12. DRAINAGE AND GRADING. All grading, drainage, erosion control, and wetland impacts
are subject to review and approval of the City Engineer, which shall not be unreasonably denied, withheld,
or delayed. The plat shall be graded in accordance with the approved grading development and erosion
control plan, Plan “B”. The plan shall conform to City of Otsego specifications. Within thirty (30) days after
completion of the grading and final establishment of ground cover or temporary stabilization reasonably
approved by the City, which shall not be unreasonably denied, withheld, or delayed, the Developer shall
provide the City with an “as constructed” grading plan certified by a registered land surveyor or engineer
that all storm water treatment/infiltration basins and swales, have been constructed on public easements
or land owned by the City. The “as constructed” plan shall include field verified elevations of the following:
a) cross sections of storm water treatment/infiltration basins; b) location and elevations along all swales,
wetlands, wetland mitigation areas if any, locations and dimensions of borrow areas/stockpiles, and
installed “conservation area” posts; and c) lot corner elevations and building pads. The City will withhold
5
220724v6 Room & Board
issuance of a Certificate of Occupancy until the approved certified grading plan is on file with the City and
all erosion control measures are in place as reasonably determined by the City Engineer. The soils
observation and testing report, including referenced development phases and lot descriptions, shall be
submitted to the Building Official for review prior to the issuance of the Certificate of Occupancy.
Prior to the release of the grading and erosion control security, the “as constructed” plan for the lot
must be submitted to verify that the final as-built grades and elevations of the specific lot are consistent with
the approved grading plan for the development, and amendments thereto as reasonably approved by the
City Engineer, which shall not be unreasonably denied, withheld, or delayed, and that all required property
monuments are in place. If the final grading, erosion control and “as constructed” grading plan is not timely
completed, after fifteen (15) days’ written notice to Developer, the City may enter the lot, perform the work,
and draw on the letter of credit or the cash escrow, as the case may be. Upon satisfactory completion of the
grading, erosion control and “as constructed” grading plan, the security, less any draw made by the City,
shall be released.
A certified as-built building pad survey must be submitted and approved for commercial, industrial
or institutional developments prior to issuance of a building permit.
Retaining walls over four feet in height shall be constructed in accordance with plans and
specifications prepared by a structural or geotechnical engineer licensed by the State of Minnesota.
Following construction, a certification signed by the design engineer shall be filed with the Building Official
evidencing that the retaining wall was constructed in accordance with the approved plans and
specifications. All retaining walls identified on the development plans and by special conditions referred to
in this Agreement shall be constructed before any other building permit is issued for a lot on which a
retaining wall is required to be built. All retaining walls must comply with the City’s engineering manual and
the City’s zoning ordinance.
13. STREETS. The Developer agrees to maintain the streets within the Plat until the base course
bituminous surfacing has been reasonably accepted by the City, which shall not be unreasonably denied,
withheld, or delayed. Should the City be required to grade the street prior to paving, the cost of such grading
6
220724v6 Room & Board
shall be paid by the Developer and may be drawn from the Developer’s letter of credit or cash escrow. Should
snowplowing be necessary prior to street paving, the City may plow the street prior to acceptance, and the
Developer will hold harmless and indemnify the City from any and all liability claims related to such work and
pay all costs associated with that work. Any plowing undertaken by the City will constitute no acceptance or
evidence of acceptance of the street(s) in question. Upon final completion of streets and acceptance by the
City as a City street rather than a private drive, the Developer shall guarantee to the City for a period of one
year the streets have been constructed to City standards. The warranty period shall not commence until such
time as street construction is completed and the streets are accepted as City streets by the City. The one
year warranty period set forth above commences upon the date on which the City accepts the streets by
resolution. The warranty period for underground utilities is one year and shall commence following
completion and acceptance by City Council by resolution. A minimum of 10% of the total security required
under this Contract shall be retained as warranty security as specified in the section of this Contract.
14. CLEAN UP. The Developer shall clean dirt and debris from streets that has resulted from
construction work by the Developer, subcontractors, their agents or assigns. Prior to any construction on
the Subject Property, the Developer shall identify in writing a responsible party and schedule for erosion
control, street cleaning, and street sweeping.
15. LANDSCAPING. Landscaping shall be installed in accordance with the approved landscape
plan. The Developer shall post a $93,100.00 landscaping security upon issuance of a building permit to
ensure that the landscaping is installed in accordance with the approved plan. All plants required as part of
an approved landscaping plan shall be maintained and kept alive and in good condition. Dead plants or
plants in poor health or condition shall be treated or replaced in accordance with the approved landscape
plan as determined by the zoning administrator. Any species substitutions for replacement trees or shrubs
shall be subject to approval by the Zoning Administrator and must be demarcated on the final approved
landscape plan submitted to the City.
7
220724v6 Room & Board
16. SPECIAL PROVISIONS. The following special provisions shall apply to this Agreement:
A. The site plans and building construction shall be developed in accordance with plans
approved by the City subject to stipulations of approval as outlined herein in
accordance with Section 11-9-4 of the Zoning Ordinance.
B. A building permit is required prior to commencing construction. The construction shall
be completed in accordance with the approval of the Building Official and Fire
Marshal.
C. All utility plans are subject to review and approval of the City Engineer.
D. The Developer shall submit as-built record drawings following the completion of
this project.
E. The removal and relocation of the existing trunk sewer forcemain and trunk

17. SECURITY. To ensure compliance with the terms of this Agreement, and construction of all
public improvements, and satisfaction of all other obligations, the Developer shall furnish the City with a cash
escrow or Irrevocable Standby Letter of Credit with automatic renewal provisions in the amount as required
under this Agreement. The issuer and form of the security (other than cash escrow) shall be subject to City
approval in its reasonable discretion. The security shall be issued by a banking institution in good standing
as determined by the City and approved by the City Administrator. The City shall have the ability to draw on
the security at a bank or branch bank located within fifty (50) miles of the City Hall. The security shall contain
an automatic renewal provision and shall not expire until all the Development is complete and fully and finally
accepted by the City, and all terms of this Agreement are satisfied.
The City may draw down the security, on five (5) business days written notice to the Developer, for
any violation of the terms of this Agreement or without notice if the security is allowed to lapse prior to the
end of the required term. If the required public improvements are not completed at least thirty (30) days prior
8
220724v6 Room & Board
to the expiration of the security, the City may also draw it down without notice. If the security is drawn down,
the proceeds shall be used to cure the default.
Upon receipt of proof satisfactory to the City that work has been completed and financial obligations
to the City have been satisfied, with City approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed, the security
shall be reduced from time to time in proportion to the work completed, but not below ten (10) percent which
is the amount of the warranty security and issue a letter to the Developer stating that all the required work and
obligations have been completed in accordance with this agreement. For purposes of this Section, the
warranty period shall be a twelve (12) month period after the applicable work has been completed, except
with respect to streets, for which the warranty period shall be two years as addressed elsewhere in this
Agreement.
This security amount shall be submitted to the City prior to execution of the Agreement. All
administrative and legal fees related to plan review, drafting of this Agreement and any other necessary items
shall be paid to the City prior to execution of the Agreement, which are in the aggregate amount of
$1,160,910.60. Upon completion of the work contemplated hereunder and expiration of the warranty period,
the remaining security shall be promptly released to Developer.
