Title
Discussion of possible resolutions or other actions relating to the disposition of the property known as Jones Park for a public purpose.
Body
From:
Eileen Lynch Gonzalez, City Council Administrator
Summary:
At its September 9, 2014 regular Council meeting, City Council considered and did not adopt a resolution relating to donation of the Jones Park property to the National Forest Foundation (refer to File ID #14-0545). As a result of that discussion, City Council voted to delay further consideration of the disposition of Jones Park until the September 23, 2014 regularly scheduled Council meeting. In the interim, Council directed that staff brief the Colorado Springs Utilities Board on possible appraisal process, cost and timeline for the property at their September 17, 2014 Board meeting, and for the City Attorney's Office to review two alternative proposals relating to putting the property out for bid and/or donating the property to El Paso County.
As of agenda publication, the attached materials were available for review: a draft of the public access restrictions to potentially be incorporated into the appraisal and bid processes, and two draft resolutions relating to alternative paths for disposition of the Jones Park property. Any additional materials will be introduced as available and according to applicable notice requirements.
