St. Paul Water Utility ProDertv on Centerville Lake City Administrator Larson wrote the following memo to the Parks & Recreation Committee regarding the property at 1601 LaMotte Drive. At the last meeting, the City Council discussed the St. Paul Water property near Laurie LaM.otte Memorial Park. You are aware that discussion has gone back and forth about the purchase of the property and the Water Board seems to think its appraisal is better than ours. The City has looked for grant funds to buy the parcel, but has not been successful in that regard The Council passed a motion to prepare a purchase agreement to buy the St. Paul Water parcel for park use at the City's appraised value. The Purchase Agreement will be prepared by the City attorney and presented to the Council at the next meeting to authorize that it be signed and sent to the St. Paul Water Board. The purchase agreement would not have any contingencies. It is expected that the cost will be paid from park fees charged to developments. It is the Council's belief that the Park Board would concur with the decision to buy the property. If that is not the case, please provide a response before the next City Council meeting on September 14, 2005. 3of5
