Doty, Esq., Assistant City Attorney tsti THROUGH: Paul E. Rosenthal, Esq., City Attorney DATE: May 4, 2000 RE: Maguire Road Widening Project: Acquisition from Charles N. Young, as Trustee Based on the Maguire Road Widening Project design prepared by PEC, the City needs to acquire property from Charles N. Young, as Trustee, whose ± 2.98 acre parcel is located at the northeast corner of the intersection of Professional Parkway and Maguire Road. The City needs to acquire, in fee simple, 450.3 square feet located at the corner of the intersection. The City had the Young property appraised by Pinel & Carpenter, who appraised the property at $6.50 per square foot. This results in an appraised value of $3,000.00. A copy of the Pinel & Carpenter appraisal report is available in the City Clerk's office for your review. Dr. Young has agreed to convey his property to the City for $3,500.00. Attached is a Purchase Agreement, under threat of condemnation, which has been executed by Dr. Young. Although the purchase price for the fee parcel exceeds the City's appraised value by $500.00, we recommend approval. In the absence of a negotiated acquisition it would be necessary for the City to condemn this property interest and incur costs far in excess of$500.00.
