COUNCIL ACTION
Al Resolution No. 2016-112 Relating to Development; approving and authorizing the
Mayor to sign a First Amendment to Sanders Grove Development Agreement for approximately
845 acres of land located north of Marana Road between Sanders Road and Wentz Road (Frank
Cassidy). Mr. Cassidy noted that in 2005 we had the original Sanders Grove with the original
Sanders grove Specific Plan for approval. In 2015, the Sanders Grove Specific Plan was
amended, and it called for amending the development agreement. Between 2005 and 2015,
Council adopted a resolution changing the alignment of Marana Road, and that road alignment
carried into some of these development agreements along Marana Road including Sanders
Grove. That, along with a couple of other conditions to update development in Sanders Grove
really made it necessary to update the development agreement. Motion to approve by Council
.Member McGorray, second by Council Member Ziegler. Passed 4-0.
A2 Resolution No. 2016 ' - 113 Relating to Development; approving and authorizing the
Mayor to execute a First Amendment to Marana Cemetery Development Agreement between the
October 18, 2016 Regular Council Meeting Minutes 3
Town of Marana and Marana Mortuary & Cemetery Properties, L.L.C. (Jane Fair all). Ms.
Fairall noted that in 2009 the town entered into a development agreement with the Marana
Mortuary & Cemetery. As part of that development agreement, there was an agreement
regarding the future construction of Tangerine Farms Road. There were two main components
to that. one was that the cemetery would donate a certain amount of property to the town for the
future road, and the other was a financial contribution of approximately $360K. The developer
did dedicate the property that was needed and required under the agreement. However, the
financial contribution didn't take place. The town didn't build Tangerine Farms Road and
currently has no plans to do so. what is proposed tonight is an amendment to the 2009
development agreement that would relieve the developer of that monetary obligation at this
point. There are provisions in the development agreement amendment that the developer agrees
if the town decides to do an improvement district for the area that they will not object and will
pay their fair share pursuant to the improvement district. Motion to approve by Council
Member Ziegler, second by Council Member McGorray. Passed 4-0.
A3 Resolution No. 2016-114 Relating to Public works; approving and authorizing the

execute all other documentation necessary for the purchase of property rights needed from La
Cholla Tangerine, LLC for Tangerine Corridor /Tangerine Road, Twin Peaks to La Canada
Drive, Town of Marana Project No. ST021 (Frank Cassidy). Mr. Cassidy noted that is a
settlement agreement for the Tangerine corridor which is on the regular agenda and also a related
executive session item on this one so that he can explain why staff reached the numbers they did,
but the entire agreement is provided in the backup materials. This is for the property that is at
the southeast corner of La Cholla Boulevard and Tangerine — a vacant parcel of property.

A4 Resolution No. 2016 -115 Relating to Administration; approving the transfer of up to
$35,000 in budgeted expenditure authority from the General Fund contingency line item in the
fiscal year 2016-2017 budget to the Technology Services capital equipment and software
maintenance accounts for expenses related to video streaming of Town Council meetings (Erik
Montague). Mr. Davidson noted that this item was related to a previous study session whereby
Council directed the authorization to purchase web service cameras, and this is part of that
request. This item is moving money out of contingency which was not budgeted as a line item
for this year into the capital services budget so that they are able to go forward with the
acquisition, we are still anticipating January for this equipment to be installed and operational in
2017. Motion to approve by Council Member Ziegler, second by Council Me -mber McGorray.
