The budget for fiscal year 1996 or 1997 does not identify the expenditure of funds for the acquisition of the subject property. However, it is anticipated that at the end of calendar year 1996 there will exist a sufficient balance in the general fund to finance either option. The Staff I would suggest that the acquisition or condemnation of the subject property may be an appropriate use of a small portion of that fund balancc. I Recommendation The Staffrccommends that thc City Council adopt Resolution #96-59, authorizing the City Administrator to extcnd an offer to purchasc 1900 Edgewater A venuc for an amount not to I excecd $17,300.00. If the offer is not acccptcd by the property owncr within ten (l0) days of receipt of thc offer, then the City Attorney is authorized to proceed with the condemnation of the I building on 1900 Edgewater A vcnue.
