BACKGROUND
This item authorizes the second step of acquisition for condemnation by eminent domain to acquire approximately 4,419 square feet of land located in Dallas County, from Korilynn Marley Snow and Wil Snow. An offer was presented to the property owners on February 25, 2019 reflecting the appraised value of $9,662.00. The owner did not accept the City's offer.
The first resolution approved on August 10, 2011, by Resolution No. 11-2002, authorized the purchase in the amount of $5,351.00.
This acquisition is part of the Long Range Water Master Plan and the Water Distribution Master Plan. The water transmission main is required to facilitate conveyance of treated water to the South and Southwest portions of Dallas and its customer cities. Installation of approximately 32 miles of 96-inch and 120-inch water transmission pipeline is needed to meet near term critical demands associated with the population growth as determined through master planning efforts. The overall pipeline is sized to meet future water demands. The consideration is based on an independent appraisal. There are no relocation benefits associated.
