Body
Issue/Request:
This is a request for approval of an early access agreement with Premier Life Real Estate Holidings (John Knox Village) in regards to the property for Fire Station #3. This agreement will allow construction activities to begin during the completion of the land conveyance process. This will also allow the contractor to finalize contracts with subcontractors, as well as begin the equipment mobilization process as well as some rough grading.

Key Issues:
The land conveyance process has taken longer than anticipated in the original and updated timelines. As a result, the contractor is challenged to maintain subcontractors at the current pricing. This early access agreement would allow activities to start and would serve to avoid further challenges with subcontractors leaving the project. The intent of this agreement is to allow construction activities to begin and to avoid a situation where the contractor cannot extend the current pricing and then forcing the City to re-bid the project.

Proposed City Council Motion:
I move for adoption of an ordinance approving an early access agreement by and between the City of Lee’s Summit, Missouri and Premier Life Real Estate Holdings, Inc. for the purpose of entry for construction activities on property to by conveyed to the City of Lee’s Summit by Premier Life for Fire Station No. 3, and authorizing the Mayor to execute any and all documents necessary and relevant by and on behalf of the City.
