COUNCIL ACTION FORM
SUBJECT: SETTING PUBLIC HEARING DATE FOR DISPOSAL OF EXCESS
PROPERTY AT GEORGE WASHINGTON CARVER AVENUE AND BLOOMINGTON
ROAD.
BACKGROUND:
In November of 1995, Council took action to initiate the transfer of a parcel of excess
right-of-way in the area of Bloomington Road and George Washington Carver Avenue.
Please note the attached Council Action Form from that time.
Since that time, staff has had an appraisal undertaken that affixed the value of the land
at $28,400. The developers of the adjacent Northridge Development have agreed to
that price. In addition, the zoning changes which were to be part of the land transfer
have taken place.
As a part of the Somerset Subdivision developers agreement the City has agreed to
contribute the $28,400 for the development of the parks and open spaces within the
Somerset development. It is necessary to actually receive the payment for the land
from the Northridge Developers and then process payment to the Somerset Developers
since the members of the groups do not exactly coincide. Staff will be working with the
Somerset Developers to determine the timing of the payment to the developers so that
it coincides with the establishment of the parks and open spaces.
In order to accomplish the transfer, a public hearing is needed.
ALTERNATIVES:
1 . Set June 10, 1997 as the date for the public hearing on the disposal of excess
right-of-way at the intersection of George Washington Carver Avenue and Bloomington
Road.
2. Reject the concept of disposing of the property and retain it.
MANAGER'S RECOMMENDED ACTION:
It is the recommendation of the City Manager that the City Council establish June 10,
1997 as the date of public hearing on the disposal of excess right-of-way at the
intersection of Bloomington Road and George Washington Carver Avenue.
