Resolution Accepting Easement for Non-motorized Public Access from Ann Arbor Assembly of God Church for the Washtenaw Avenue Non-Motorized Pathway Project (8 Votes Required)
Memorandum
There is a resolution before you to accept an easement for non-motorized public access from the Ann Arbor Assembly Of God, a Michigan ecclesiastical corporation, for the Washtenaw Avenue Non-Motorized Pathway Project.
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, an appraisal was ordered by the Project Management Unit of the Public Services Area and performed by the Gerald Alcock Company, LLC, which placed compensation for the easement at $3,800.00 based on the requirements of the Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice (USPAP). This project was approved as part of the MDOT Washtenaw Avenue non-motorized pathway project.
The Ann Arbor Assembly Of God 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.
