This is a resolution regarding the acquisition of parcel one for the Jones Bridges, Sargent and Douglas Road Project. 283 00:20:31,580 --> 00:20:35,460 And our attorneys here this evening could be having any questions. 284 00:20:36,200 --> 00:20:38,420 Mr. Crawler, did you have a presentation or? 285 00:20:46,510 --> 00:21:01,350 Mayor and council, next to agenda items M6 and M7 are for the acquiring right of way in easements for the intersection improvements at Jones Bridge, it's Sergeant Road, the dressing M6 first. 286 00:21:01,350 --> 00:21:08,910 the first is parcel one is a very smart parcel right away probably the tenth 287 00:21:08,910 --> 00:21:15,030 of the size of this room and then there's some easement for slopes. We need to 288 00:21:15,030 --> 00:21:20,170 acquire that property because it's one of those situations where we find 289 00:21:20,170 --> 00:21:25,370 this a lot with apartment complexes and townhound developments. They don't have a 290 00:21:25,370 --> 00:21:30,770 very effective way of getting all of the owners together to vote to approve the 291 00:21:30,770 --> 00:21:41,050 to the city. So we are entering into a friendly condemnation. The amount at issue is $16,400 292 00:21:41,050 --> 00:21:49,370 dollars and the owner that townhound development is perfectly satisfied with that amount. 293 00:21:49,730 --> 00:21:56,010 They just need a mechanism to go ahead and convey it. And the condemnation is the only way 294 00:21:56,010 --> 00:22:03,090 to do that. So we were asking for you to adopt the resolution that's attached to authorize 295 00:22:03,090 --> 00:22:06,970 the acquisition by the domain of those easements. 296 00:22:12,030 --> 00:22:21,030 All right. All right. Thank you, Mr. Carothers. Anybody have any questions of the attorney?
