PW CASE <br /> <br />REPORT ON T.H. #47 SURPLUS PROPERTY <br />By: Steve Jankowski, City Engineer <br /> <br />Background: <br /> <br />At the September 21, 1999 Public Works Committee meeting, three parcels of land were <br />identified and presented to the Committee as having economic value following the dedication of <br />land portions necessary for the highway project. A sketch of these parcels is attached. <br />Subsequently, the Council directed that the surplus land be publicly advertised as being for sale. <br />This has been done, with staff placing notice in the Anoka Union and by directly writing <br />adjacent landowners of the City's intent to dispose of these surplus parcels. A date of <br />February 1, 2000 was identified as a deadline for expressing interest in these parcels. <br /> <br />Lord of Life Church expressed interest in Parcel 2. There has been no interest in Parcel 3. For <br />Parcel 1, which has been committed to the ACCAP development, the City has received interest <br />in the portion of the property which will be immediately adjacent to Lots 7, 8, 9 and 10 of Sunny <br />Ponds 2'~ Addition. One of these lot owners expressed an interest in acquiring a strip of adjacent <br />land to extend their backyards. (This is land that would not be useful to ACCAP.) <br /> <br />Recommendation: <br /> <br />Staff recommends that we offer the purchase of Parcel 2 (formerly the Elke property) to Lord of <br />Life in the amount the City paid Lord of Life for Parcels. <br /> <br />Committee Action: <br /> <br />Motion to recommend to Council terms of sale offer to Lord of Life. <br /> <br />Also provide direction on request for property adjacent to Sunny Ponds 2nd Addition. <br /> <br />Reviewed by: <br /> <br />City Administrator <br />Director of Public Works <br />City Attorney <br /> <br />PW: 02/15/00 <br /> <br /> <br />
