HomeMy WebLinkAboutAgenda Report - July 15, 1998 (53)AGENDA TITLE: Purchase and Sale Agreement for Multimodal Station Site MEETING DATE: July 15, 1998 PREPARED BY: Public Works Director RECOMMENDED ACTION: That the City Council adopt the attached resolution approving the Purchase and Sale Agreement between Union Pacific Railroad Company (UPRR) and the City of Lodi for the multimodal station site, authorize the City Manager to sign the Purchase and Sale Agreement on behalf of the City, and appropriate funds for this acquisition as shown below. BACKGROUND INFORMATION: Agreement has been reached with UPRR on the purchase of the property needed for the multimodal station. The negotiated final price for the property is $400,000. This is slightly higher than the City's appraised value of the property, but lower than the price UPRR's appraiser placed on the property. The Federal Transportation Administration (FTA), which is contributing 80% of the purchase price, has approved the amount needed and as soon as all documents are executed and the FTA is notified, the money will be wired to us. Our City Attorney has reviewed the Agreement. The relocation of the Santa Fe Pacific Pipeline Co.'s (SFPP) pipeline, which runs across the site we are acquiring, is still under discussion. We hope to finalize the agreement for this work in the next week or two after verifying the costs of the relocation work that were supplied as part of the agreement. SFPP will complete the relocation work with its crews. When the pipeline issues are resolved, we will bring the agreement to the City Council for approval. The pipeline relocation, as well as the removal of the switch for the UPRR team track presently located on the property the City is acquiring, will be paid for under the construction phase of the project.
