Sc ool District Right-of-Wad
On March 16, the Elementary School District Board decided to not
de icat the necessary right-of-way across their property for
Ea t "H" Street. They indicated that they wanted to receive just
co pens tion for the necessary right-of-way even though they
re lized that it may not be advantageous to them in the long run
since a uture developer may be required to pay the City back for
th righ -of-way or put in extensive improvements.
In order to begin the process, we need to hire an appraiser and
up n rec ipt of his report, make an offer to the School District
for the fight-of-way. Time is very critical and we do not have
time to ego through a formal process of interviewing appraisers
since we~ expect to open bids on April 7. One appraiser we are

ve y sat~lsfied with and who the School District is also satisfied
wi h is lan Comstock. He has indicated that he could have an
ap raisa report completed to us by April 17. Therefore, if the
Co ncil approves this resolution, the City will execute a
co tract with him for these purposes.
Th cont act will be based upon his regular fees in an amount not
to excee $6,500. If our negotiations with the School District
ar unsu cessful, we will need to prepare formal condemnation
papers nd will need to spend additional monies for the
ap raise .
FI CAL IMPACT: To date, no funds have been appropriated for East
"H Street. Therefore, this resolution will only fund the
ap raisa work. we will recommend appropriating the remainder
wh n we ward the contract for construction.
