George VanDeVoorde, Mayor Presented: November 14 , 1990 Adopted: Vote: Yeas Nays Recorded: Attest: Dolonna Mecum, City Clerk (7/7s-/ -?) a, 0 p,i& 89,6,4 iezz -)6 '641 /r 9(q a in • ,` _ -_, Agenda Item No. K 3) V1110 9�RD Fie October 4 , 1990 To: Mayor and Members of the City Council From: City Manager Subject: Property for the Westside Fire Station Purpose: The purpose of this memo is to inform Council where we are at in the • process of purchasing a Westside Fire Station site . Background: At your direction we are proceeding with negotiating the purchase of a fire station site . To start the process we needed soil borings and a site survey of the proposed property. Upon completion of the site survey we found that the slope of the property will require us to raise the property 8 to 10 feet at the back end of the site. To resolve this issue our architect advises two alternatives : 1 . Expand the size of parcel by 6150 square feet so the building and parking lot can be located to accommodate the slope. 2 . Build a concrete retaining wall around the rear and sides of the property. This would be esti- mated at from 5 to 6 feet high to level off the area. We have contacted the owners to see if they would be willing to sell us the additional property. They have agreed to sell us the addi- tional land .to accommodate our building at the appraisal price. • Financial Impact: The cost of each option is approximately $40 ,000 . Recommendation: 410 It is staff ' s recommendation to purchase the additional land to correct this situation. By doing so will produce a much more pleas- ing appearance than the retention wall alternative. This certainly will be more acceptable to current neighbors of the property. City 4iager st 1 r • • Agenda Item No. & 4 ° *4id D F16 SEPTEMBER 12 , 1990 TO: Mayor and Members of the City Council FROM: Larry L. Rice, City Manager SUBJECT: West Side Fire Station Site PURPOSE The purpose of this memorandum is to provide the Mayor and City Council with information on the cost of acquiring a fire station site. BACKGROUND City staff has been directed to locate and acquire a fire station site in the vicinity of Randall Road and Royal Boule- vard. Recently a . 88 AC site on Royal Boulevard was offered to the City for $7 . 00 a square foot, or $269 , 829 (see attached correspondence and site sketches) . Subsequently, staff or- dered an appraisal for the parcel . Although the written re- port will not be available until Friday (September 14) , Coleman Land Company has verbally indicated the fair market value of the property to be $6 .50 a square foot, or $250 , 555 , approximately $19 , 270 less than the asking price. FINANCIAL IMPACT There is $200 ,000 in the 1990 Bond Issue for the acquisi- tion of a site for a west side fire station. RECOMMENDATION The staff considers the above parcel an ideal site for a fire station. If the City Council concurs, staff should be directed to acquire the property at a cost not to exceed $7 . 00 a square foot . y L.

JANE E.CRADDOCK KEITH A SPONG • August 24, 1990 The City of Elgin 150 Dexter Court Elgin, IL 60120 • Attention: Mr. Ery Jentsch Re: West Side Fire Station Site Acquisition Dear Erv: Following your inquiry of August 9, 1990, regarding the availability of the Royal Boulevard fire station site I contacted Dr. Khazei, the managing partner of the ownership group and I am enclosing herewith a copy of his response. In order to avoid any misunderstandings, I am enclosing a photocopy of a portion of a plat of survey prepared by John Burnidge covering the acreage that Dr. Khazei is referring to in his letter. This is the same property that Safety-Rleen's land planners had showed to Chief Henrici and I am assuming that we are talking about the same piece of property. For your information, I am aware of a transaction pending in the immediate vicinity of the subject property at $7 .46 per square foot. Thus, this asking price is not particularly out of line based on what is going on in the general area. • Please call me if you need any further or other information in this regard. Either you or a representative of , the City may feel free to contact Dr. Khazei direct if it is deemed desireable. Yours ve ruly Richard L. Heimberg for .
