SCOTT COUNTY, KENTUCKY ORDINANCE 11-02 AN ORDINANCE RELA TED TO THE AMENDMENT OF THE GEORGET OWN/SCOTT COUNTY SUBDIVISION & DEVELOPMENT REGULATIONS REGARDING SECURITY FOR SUBDIVISION AND DEVELOPMENT IMPROVEMENTS Whereas : The existing Subdivision and Development Regulations' security requirements have not satisfied community needs. The regulation requirements must be updated to reflect the Georgetown-Scott County Planning Commission's experience in the implementation of the community's development. This experience reveals the following: a. Letters of Credit function better than surety bonds as security for subdivision and development improvements. b. The community needs to secure the proper installation and interim maintenance of public or shared improvements. c. At present, there are approximately $6,000,000 in letters of credit and bonds held by the Commission. d. There must be standards for the type and terms of security posted by developers. e. There must be procedures for renewal, tracking and release of security posted by developers. f. There must be certainty concerning what items may be secured. g. There must be security to insure quality work. h. There must be manageable timetables for the completion and dedication of improvements. i. There must be standards for reporting to and involvement of the local governments that ultimately take over responsibility for improvements. j. The current period before a sufficient number of homes are occupied (80% in the City and 50% in the County , by ordinance) and the public infrastructure may be completed and dedicated is too long. While current bonds or letters of credit are being held for completion of infrastructure, they may not cover maintenance, cleaning of streets and storm sewers, snow removal, erosion and sediment control, replacement of signage, restoration of staging areas and other essential work. These unsecured tasks are properly the responsibility of the developer . In recent months, the Commission and local government have been asked to assume these duties upon complaints from the public, or due to financial failure of developers. The extended period for completion and need for security for currently unsecured work provide major impetus for this ordinance. Whereas : This proposed amendment was the subject of many meetings over many months, with input sought from all affected sectors of the community's economy and local government. The following recommended amendments and additions to the Subdivision and Development Regulations were presented to the Geor getown-Scott County Planning Commission, which held a properly advertised public hearing July 8, 2010. At the close of that public hearing, the Georgetown-Scott County Planning Commission voted unanimously to recommend to the respective legislative bodies the adoption of this ordinance. Now, Ther efore, be it Ordained by SCOTT FISCAL COUR T, Kentucky , as follows: Section One: Amended Provisions . (New language is underlined. Language which is unchanged is not marked. Superseded language is shown as stricken .)
