Body
Key Issues:
Development of this Public Service Agreement (PSA) between the City and the Downtown Lee's Summit Community Improvement District (District) was a core component in the District's creation. The District's purpose is to preserve and promote Downtown Lee's Summit by providing funding for public services and improvements that are needed to sustain the area as a viable and vibrant part of the community. The activities provided in this PSA are only a base part of the District's current and future public services and improvements.
Under this PSA the District will compensate the City for certain activities related to the maintenance of the downtown streetscape improvements, enhanced services, and administrative functions required by state law:
1. Trash removal from regular, public receptacles approved and placed by the City, at the City’s discretion, within the boundaries of the District by the City or the City’s selected contractors.
2. Snow removal for all public streets within the District by the City or the City’s selected contractors, on an as need basis as determined by the City.
3. Landscape materials and maintenance of the plant materials placed in the planters approved and placed by the City, at the City’s discretion, located within the boundaries of the District, excluding planters that are part of any other agreement, by the City or the City’s selected contractors.
4. Streetlight electricity and regular maintenance for the decorative, public streetlights located within the boundaries of the District with work to be performed by the City or the City’s selected contractors.
5. Review and comment on the District’s annual budget and other reports to be filed with the City.
The City will be reimbursed for services 1-4 the amount equal to 7.5% of the District's annual sales tax revenue, but not to exceed actual costs as submitted annually by the City. For FY16, this would be up to approximately $21,000, but not to exceed actual costs.
For service 5, the District will pay the City an annual administrative fee of $250.
This is a one-year agreement with up to 4 one-year renewals. The agreement does include payment for the included services for the preceding fiscal year.
The District's Board of Directors passed a resolution at their December meeting approving this agreement.
The District and City may enter into other future agreements for the provision of other services that meet the purposes of the District. The City may also be eligible for grants or other programs of the District.
