RE: West Draw "Quick Take" for Hardwood Road
The City is in the process of obtaining the easements necessary to instail the trunk
utility work for development in the West Draw. At the present time, appraisers are
reviewing the individual properties that wili be impacted by construction of Hardwood
Road and the needed trunk sanitary sewer and water lines. The appraisal process has
taken longer than expected. Staff has alsa engaged a survey company to stake the
right-of-way centerline and proposed ponding easements. This staking will permit
affected property owners to better gauge the level of impact upon their property. The
staking also is necessary so that the City can obtain legal descriptions of the easements
and right-of-way.
Overall, the easement acquisition process has taken longer than initially hoped. To
maintain a schedule which would permit instailation of the trunk sewer work this
construction season and to permit some home constn.iction this fall, it may be
necessary to conduct a quick take. This is a condemnation process which permits the
City to obtain the needed right-0f-way approximately 90 days after filing with the court
and notification to affected residents. To initiate the quick take, the Council will need to
pass a resolution of authorization. During the 90-day time period, the City would
continue to negotiate outright purchase of the necessary right-of-way and easements.
Most critical this ysar is instaliation of the trunk sanitary sewer. This could be
accommodated by obtaining right of entry from the individual property owners. This
option will also be expiored. However, it seems uniikely that all impacted property
owners will permit sewer i�staliation without defining the terms of the City purchase.
