ITEM 22
City Council Memorandum Public Works & Utilities Memo No.
RE24-056
Date:
April 18, 2024
To:
Mayor and Council
Thru:
Joshua H. Wright, City Manager
Andy Bass, Deputy City Manager
John Knudson, Public Works & Utility Director
Daniel Haskins, Capital Projects Division Manager
From:
Erich Kuntze, Real Estate Administrator
Subject:
Resolution No. 5772 Authorizing the Acquisition of Real Property in Fee or by Easement Required for the Price Road Sewer Rehabilitation Project No. WW2302
Proposed Motion:
Move City Council pass and adopt Resolution No. 5772 authorizing the acquisition of real property in fee or by easement required for the Price Road Sewer Rehabilitation Project WW2302; authorizing the city’s real estate administrator to sign, on behalf of the city, the purchase agreements, and any other documents necessary to facilitate the acquisitions; authorizing eminent domain proceedings as needed to acquire said the real property and obtain immediate possession thereof; and authorizing relocation assistance as may be required by law.
Background:
The city is rehabilitating sanitary sewer pipe and manholes along Price Road from just south of the Loop 202 Santan Freeway to just south of Queen Creek Road. To perform the rehabilitation, it is necessary to acquire property rights from approximately 15 parcels. The alignment shown on the attached Exhibit “A” map was selected in order to reduce costs by bringing the temporary bypass sewer lines along the Old Price Road alignment rather than down the improved portion of Price Road, in an effort to avoid the intersection of Price and Queen Creek roads. Since these are established properties, it is possible relocation of some personal property or improvements may be required, which will be compensated as required by law. It is not contemplated that any businesses, residential property owners, or tenants will be relocated. The real property rights to be acquired by fee or easement will be appraised as required and offers of compensation will be made pursuant to the appraised values or as approved by the Public Works & Utilities Director at an amount not exceeding the appraisal by ten percent (10%) or up to $50,000. Values for access agreements will be negotiated on a case-by-case basis. In the event relocation services are required, the city will provide those services as required by law.
All the acquisitions are temporary construction easements. Easements vary in size due to built improvements within the properties that require additional space to avoid current infrastructure.
Financial Implications:
Funds have been set aside in the project for acquisition and relocation services.
