ITEM:
Discussion and possible action on any and all matters regarding Resolution No. 2149. A 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 Land Management for a recreational and public purpose lease for the downtown park project. (Jenny Torres, Economic Development Manager; Jose A. Guzman, Director of Planning & Zoning)
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 BLM to developed park areas linked by walking paths and a pedestrian bridge to create one singular urban park downtown. The engineer's cost estimate for the park is approximately $3,458,000.00. 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. BLM requires that the governing board of the organization adopt a resolution and files the document with the application. |
| Staff is requesting approval of Resolution No. 2149 and provide the City Manager authority to sign any pertinent documents. |
RECOMMENDATION / SUGGESTED MOTION:
I MOVE TO APPROVE AND ADOPT RESOLUTION NO. 2149, AS PRESENTED.
