Key Elements of Developer’s Agreement

The Developer’s Agreement is a legal agreement that binds Developer to completing various key tasks;  Provide Financial Security / Bond (amount being determined for completion of Public Improvements such as onsite stormwater, paving, landscaping, erosion control, etc.)  Outlines process for Developer to request reduction in Public Improvements Bond as items are completed (mirrors the MPC language).  Preparation of an “Hours of Operation and Management Plan” to be submitted to the Borough before Use and Occupancy permit is issued.  Outlines requirement for maintenance of property during construction (to address debris and trash issues).  Include language to require future phase for streetscape improvements.

So What’s Next?

The following outlines what the next steps are in the process;  Borough Council to deliberate / discuss plan at regular meeting and take action to approve, approve with conditions or deny.  If Borough approves or approves with Conditions, Developer’s Agreement will need to be approved by Council.  Once Developer would meet ALL conditions of approval, permits could be issued to allow the construction of the proposed development.
