Doug Russell City of Kalispell 201 I't Avenue East Kalispell, MT 59901 Our Client: Montana Venture Partners,, LLC Re: - Latecomer Agreement P.O. Box 1678 KALisPELL, MT 59903 PHONE: 406-257-6001 FAX: 400-257-6082 ALL ATroRNFys LicENSED IN UT ALSO LICENSED IN NORTH DAKOTA pt X fit In light of comments made by Mayor Fisher and other council members at the April 15, 2013 City Council meeting,, Montana Venture Partners, LLC ("WP") has asked me to inf-orm you that its position remains that the property included in the Gardner/VW 2-Lot PUD is covered by the latecomer agreement between MVP and the City of Kalispell, Therefore, when those lots connect to the city's infi-astructure, MVP expects to receive latecomer fees from the City. This position holds true for the remam'der of the Gardner property annexed in 2008 and which was zoned with a PUD Placeholder. H said latecomer fees are not received by MVP, the City will be in breach of its agreement with MVP.. My client is deeply concerned that the Gardners and other property owners will continue to refuse to pay latecomer fees based on their own infrastructure development, just as has been argued with the GardnerNW 2-lot PUD. This is a situation neither MVP nor the City ever ima&ed happening. The City's record is very clear that the properties south of Lower Valley Road and Cemetery Road along Highway 93 would unquestionably be responsible for paying latecomer fibes. MVP is very concerned and disappointed with the City's (1) unwillingness to tell the owners of property, clearly intended to be required to pay latecomer fees, that it must do so (namely Gardners and VW Properties), and (2) willingness to work with these same property owners on infrastructwe plans that may be settina the stage for future disputes over who does or does not have to pay latecomer fees. Charlie Harball and Doug Russell May 2,20B Page 2 of 2 MVP wants clear confirmation from the City that (1) it will honor its latecomer agreeme with MVP,, and - (2) that when other properties south of- Cemetery Road and Lower Valley Ro receive City sewer and water that latecomer fees will be paid. To date, MVP has received n clarity from the City. In February, Charlie Harball told MVP that the lot where the VW dealershi was proposed may not have to pay latecomer fees, but that the rest of the Gardner propert unquestionably would have to. Now, Mayor Fisher has opined that the both lots in the 2-Lot P shouldn't have to pay latecomer fees. Where does this end? My client does not want to have t face a dispute every time a new property is going to be getting water and sewer service from th City* My client has spent real and substantial amounts of money to oversize 'infrastructure at t City's demand and it is counting on and needs reimbursement of that cost through the latecom h,is e fees. If they do not come from the clearly understood sources then MVP will need to demand t P h the City reimburse it in full for the millions of dollars spent, Obviously, both parties would like t avoid having to go down that road. My i+ client and I would like to meet with both of you and Mayor Fisher at your earlimclval., opportunity to begin addressing my client's concerns. Please let us know when we can meet.
