SYNOPSIS:
Recommend
Council approval of fair market value.
This action establishes fair market value of property interests for the
McKinley Avenue Drainage Improvements Project – SW 26th Street to SW

requires this action before the City can proceed with an offer to purchase the
necessary property interests under the threat of eminent domain.
FISCAL
IMPACT:
Amount: $30,000 plus
closing costs
Funding Source: 2009-10 CIP, Page Storm Water Improvements –
14, McKinley Avenue Drainage Improvements, STE083
ADDITIONAL
INFORMATION:
The basin
for the project is located on vacant property that is owned by the City, for
Airport use, and is just east of the Federal Aviation Administration’s (FAA’s)
Airway Facility Sector office on the north side of McKinley Avenue. Since this stormwater detention facility is
proposed to control stormwater that is generated
predominantly from the area north of Airport property, the Stormwater
Management Utility is funding the construction of this facility. The majority of the work is on existing City
owned property. However, some connecting
sewers will be installed along McKinley Avenue where the existing right-of-way
is narrow. These parcels are for the
installation next spring of the connecting sewers. The main basin will function at 80% without
these connecting sewers. Construction of
the basin will proceed this fall to provide protection next spring. The construction contract includes
provisions to reconstruct the driveways to 2625 and 2701 McKinley
Avenue next spring after these easements have been acquired.
On May 4, 2009, by Roll Call 09-728, the City
Council of the City of Des Moines authorized acquisition of the necessary
right-of-way and easements for the McKinley Avenue Drainage Improvements
Project – SW 26th Street to SW 31st Street by gift,
negotiation or condemnation.
PPD Property, Inc. is the titleholder of the
commercial properties at 2625 and 2701 McKinley Avenue which are developed with
a truck terminal and office building occupied by United Parcel Services
(UPS). An adjacent auto service facility
leases the eastern portion of the property.
The property interest required for this project has been appraised at
$30,000 for a partial fee acquisition.
This acquisition will not require relocation assistance.
