            WHEREAS, HCC 17.04.140(a) provides that if an improvement district is unable to proceed to the construction phase within a period of five years from the date the Council passes the resolution creating the district, the district shall be considered void, unless the Council extends the effective period by resolution for not more than five additional years; and

 

            WHEREAS, The commencement of construction of the improvements in the District has been delayed due to difficulties in easement acquisition and a lengthy environmental permit process; and

 

            WHEREAS, The improvements that are to be constructed in the District have been designed and engineered, the last permit required for the construction of the improvements will be issued this summer, and the City plans to award the contract for the construction of the project no later than this fall; and
