Agenda Item Brief: Construction of the North Truckee Drain realignment project will require substantial acquisition of easements and right-of-way for both construction access and permanent facilities. F&M Properties (APN’s 34-172-08 and 34-172-17) is affected by the project, and an offer of $85,008 for easements was presented and accepted by the property owner for consideration by City Council. Staff recommends approval.


Background: In order to construct the North Truckee Drain Realignment project, numerous easements will be required to establish Temporary Construction Easements and Storm Drain Pipeline Easements. A total of 18 parcels are identified as having easement impacts, comprised of a minimum of 12 unique owners. On June 11, 2012, City Council approved a contract with Warren and Schiffmacher to prepare appraisals of the subject properties in order to proceed with construction of the North Truckee Drain Realignment project. Upon completion of the Appraisal, Review Appraisal, and several site visits with the owner, F&M Properties, the necessary documents were prepared. F&M Properties was presented with an offer in the amount of $85,008 to secure a five (5) year Temporary Construction Easement and Storm Drain Pipeline Easement on the two subject parcels (APN’s 34-172-08 and 34-172-17). This offer was presented on May 8, 2013, and was accepted May 14, 2013.

Analysis: The Easement areas required to construct and operate the North Truckee Drain project have been carefully considered to ensure project needs are met while reducing property impacts. An offer valuation for the temporary and storm drainage pipeline easements of $85,008 was determined using the Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice. Appraisal review was provided by Kimmel and Associates with no concerns noted.

Alternatives: 1.City Council could approve the Payment as outlined by Staff. 2.City Council could reject the Payment and provide direction to the City Manager.

Recommended Motion: I move to approve the Payment of $85,008 to F&M Properties for a Temporary Construction Easement and a Storm Drain Pipeline Easement on Assessor’s Parcel Numbers 34-172-08 and 34-172-17 for the North Truckee Drain Phase 1 Project.
