body
Background
AZ General Hospital ER, a new emergency care hospital facility, is being constructed adjacent to vacant land owned by 83rd & Camelback, LLC, at 8310 West Camelback Road. 83rd & Camelback, LLC, is granting the city an easement for the sidewalk and driveway for public access to the facility from the right-of-way. Upon acceptance of the easement, the city will be responsible for the maintenance, operation and repair of the sidewalk and driveway consistent with City Code. The city, however, did not build the sidewalk and driveway; that work was performed by the site contractor.
Analysis
Staff recommends acceptance of the sidewalk/driveway easement. There may be minimal impact on city departments, staff or service levels as a result of this action. Minimal costs may be incurred by the city in the future to maintain and repair the sidewalk and driveway in this easement.
