Amberly is a new 36 unit single - family subdivision located on Dovera Drive, north of Red
Bug Lake Road, within the Oviedo Marketplace PUD. Final Engineering for Amberly was
approved by the City Commission on July 23, 2012. Sitework construction commenced in
August 2012 and construction of the first model units commenced in December 2012.
A final plat for the Amberly subdivision was approved by the City Commission at the
December 10, 2012 Commission meeting, subject to provision of the required bond, letter
of credit, or cash deposit, which has yet to be provided and thus the plat has not been
recorded.
This agenda item is for the conditional site acceptance of the site improvements.
The Amberly sitework has been constructed in substantial compliance with the Final
Engineering plans approved by the City Commission, except as noted on the attached
punchlist, Exhibit A. In addition, since the plat has not been recorded this site acceptance
must be subject to the recording of the final plat.
The engineer -of- record has provided a certification letter of approval and a complete set of
record drawings. KB Home has provided the required two -year maintenance bond for the
public infrastructure being turned over to the City for ownership and maintenance. This
public infrastructure includes:
• Roadway infrastructure (asphalt pavement, base, curb, gutter, etc.) for all public
streets
• Water distribution system including the mains, valves, and hydrants between the
points of connection and the point of service (meter) to each lot
• Public sidewalks, except those along the immediate frontage of residential units not
yet constructed
• Signage and striping in the right -of -way
• Sanitary sewer system
• Stormwater infrastructure in the right -of -way, pond, and drainage easements
One condition of the City Commission's approval of the Final Engineering plans for
Amberly was a requirement for the Dovera Community Development District (CDD) to
grant the City an easement for emergency access and maintenance of the existing
stormwater system on the CDD property. This easement has been recorded.
FISCAL IMPACT:
There is no fiscal impact associated with this site acceptance.
