4. SUMMARY STATEMENT AND REOUIREMENT FOR COUNCIL ACTION:
A small portion (. 18 acre) of SR3 Park was encroached upon by the adjoining auto dealer. Since 6~ Street
separates this portion of the park from the rest of the park, it has very limited usability from a parks'
standpoint. The City advised the National Park Service (NPS) of the encroachment, and was advised to
obtain an appraisal. The appraised value of $51,000 was received from the auto dealer in March of 2002.
The requirement from the NPS was to purchase property of equal value to add to the park inventory in
exchange for the property lost by this transaction. This ~xchange purchase is being pursued. In order to
deed the property over to the car dealer, the attached agreement is required. Since the property is Parks
Protection property pursuant to Chapter 13.12 BMC, two hearings and council approval is required prior
deeding the property. Additionally, staffis requesting that the transaction be approved as a negotiated sale
pursuant to BMC 2.78.030(e).
8. RECOMMENDATION:
Following the 2~ hearing, move to;
Approve the sale of the property to the "Pearce Family Living Trust" for $51,000 pursuant to the Parks
Protection Code Chapter 13.12 BMC and as a negotiated sale pursuant to BMC 2.78.030(0 and authorize
the mayor to executenthe attached agreement with the NPS to allow the tran.~fer of deed.
