Resolution Accepting Easement for Pedestrian Access from Speedway Superamerica LLC (Plymouth Road-Green Road Resurfacing Project-2010) (8 Votes Required)
Memorandum
There is a resolution before you to accept an easement from Speedway Superamerica LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, for the construction and maintenance of a pedestrian access easement at the intersection of Plymouth Road and Huron Parkway.
An appraisal report is not required when the City acquires an easement for value of less than $10,000 under Section 1:320(3) of the Ann Arbor City Code, however, this project will receive federal funds and must meet the requirements of MDOT including the offer of compensation for the requested easement.
A Valuation Statement was prepared by the Project Management Unit of the Public Services Area which placed compensation for the pedestrian access easement at $109.00 based on a formula developed and approved by the Michigan Department of Transportation (“MDOT”). Speedway Superamerica LLC has agreed to accept the City’s written offer, subject to City Council approval.
The terms and conditions of the grant of easement have been reviewed and approved by the Project Management Unit of the Public Services Area.
Acceptance of the grant of easement is recommended.
