ITEM:
Discussion and possible action on any and all matters regarding Order No. 2024-03. An Order of the Mayor and City Council of the City of San Luis, Arizona, (1) authorizing and directing the acquisition of all property necessary for the expansion of City Departments by dedication, donation, purchase, or exchange, and (2) authorizing the City Manager to take any and all actions in furtherance of the acquisitions. (Jenny Torres, Acting City Manager)
SUMMARY:
On March 8, 2023, the San Luis City Council authorized the submission of an application to the Arizona State Land Department (ASLD) for 19.80 acres of land located on 4th Avenue and Union Street for the expansion of all departments. San Luis City Hall was built in 2007 with projected growth needs for ten years. Currently, the departments do not have sufficient office space at city hall to accommodate our employees' needs. Several departments moved out of City Hall and are currently conducting operations from other city buildings to allow additional office space for the departments remaining at city hall. The City is interested in expanding City Hall offices to accommodate the departments' needs and enhance the services provided to our residents. The City received a notice of public auction for the sale of 19.80 acres of state land to be auctioned to the highest and best bidder. The auction is scheduled to take place on Tuesday, June 11, 2024, at the Yuma County Courthouse.
The staff is requesting authorization to take any required action to complete the purchase of the property within the appraised value.
The staff is requesting authorization to take any required action to complete the purchase of the property within the appraised value.
RECOMMENDATION / SUGGESTED MOTION:
