home on a 9,979 square foot lot. The appraised value of the property is $205,000. A negotiated
settlement in the amount of $229,900 was based on the required available comparable
replacement housing analysis completed by Wilson Development Services and a more recent
comparable sale. The City proposes to provide the property owners with a six month rent back
agreement at no cost. The owners will also be eligible for relocation and moving cost
reimbursements.
Mr. Miller explained that the County Road 50 improvement project is identified in the 2014-
2018 Capital Improvement Plan. The City's portion of the acquisition and demolition is
proposed to be financed from Municipal State Aid Street funds. The City and Dakota County
will enter into a joint powers agreement prior to commencing construction, at which time the
Council will reimburse the City 55% of these acquisition costs.
With respect to uniform relocation of residential property, Mr. Olson explained that the
roadway type and traffic volume have an impact on the appraised value of the property.
