Re: Confirmation of Reimbursements for Booster Station
Dear Mayor Johnson:
This letter agreement constitutes an amendment to, and clarification of, that certain
nd
Development Agreement (the "Development Agreement") made and entered into the 2
day of April, 2008, by and between Ace Industrial Properties, Inc. (the “Developer”) and
the City of Muskego (the “City”).
By way of background, the Development Agreement specifies and defines certain work
responsibilities of the parties as "Developer Improvements," "Dedicated Improvements"
and "City Improvements." A question arose after the Development Agreement was
signed concerning the responsibility for construction of the booster station since it was
mistakenly omitted as a specifically described improvement under any of those defined
categories. The Exhibits to the Development Agreement, however, make reference to
the booster station being located on Exhibit D-2 which describes the water and sewer
improvements to be undertaken by the Developer. The City and the Developer
recognize that the booster station is primarily designed to serve offsite users along
College Avenue. For that reason and for the reason that it is the understanding of the
parties that this work qualifies as a TIF improvement under the TIF Project Plan, the
parties acknowledge and agree that the booster station work is and shall be deemed to
be a Dedicated Improvement to be constructed by the Developer, transferred to the
City, and reimbursed as an additional cost not to exceed a total of $143,400 to the
Developer as such, in accordance with the terms of the Development Agreement. The
booster station work includes the installation of the booster station and all related
expenditures in connection therewith as detailed in the proposal received from D.F.
Tomasini Contractors, Inc. attached hereto and incorporated by this reference as Exhibit
1. The City acknowledges that the Developer has or will retain D.F. Tomasini
Contractors, Inc. to undertake to install the booster station in accordance with plans and
specifications reviewed, approved and accepted by the City.
Each of the parties are signing this Letter Agreement to confirm that the Developer will
undertake the work and that the City will be responsible for reimbursing the Developer
for such work once the Developer has otherwise complied with its responsibilities under
the Development Agreement including the dedication of such improvements as detailed
therein.
The undersigned approve this Letter Agreement on the date written opposite their
names.
