ITEM:

Discussion and possible directions to staff on any and all matters regarding a proposed resolution of the Mayor and City Council of the City of San Luis, authorizing the submission of an application to the United States Department of Interior, Bureau of Reclamation for transportation and utility systems and facilities lease for the downtown parking lot project. (Jenny Torres, Economic Development Manager; Jose A. Guzman, Director of Planning & Zoning; and Eulogio Vera, Director of Public Works)

SUMMARY:

The city developed the City of San Luis Master Plan for Downtown Parks and Parking lots as part of a request by the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) and Bureau of Reclamation (BOR) to process an application for lease of the land for public use. The City of San Luis proposes to submit an application to BOR to develop parking lot areas linking to the proposed urban park downtown. The parking lot is broken down into a central parking area, east parking area, and west parking area. The engineer cost estimate for the park is approximately $2,202,600.00. The development of a master plan and acquisition of the land is the first step in moving this project forward. Staff estimates that it will take a couple of years to phase out the project upon funding availability. BOR requires that the governing board of the organization adopt a resolution and files the document with the application. 

Staff is requesting authorization to submit a proposed resolution and provide the City Manager authority to sign any pertinent documents.

RECOMMENDATION / SUGGESTED MOTION:

Discussion and possible directions to staff only, no action.
