To the Hanorable Mayor, Council President,
and M�mbers of the City Council
Subject: Mounds Boulevard - Open, Widen, and Extend
Ladies a.nd Gentlemen:
I have reviewed. and analyzed. the appraisals made by Mr. Ray W. Faricy a.nd
Mx. Chandler B. Davis, Realtors, of the lands to be acquired for the sub�ect
project, said lands bein� more particularly described in the resolution
submitted here�with. Upon such review and a.nalysis, it is �y opinion that the
fair maxket value of said lands is in the total amount of $131,625.00.
The subject lands are located on the southwesterly side of platted Mounds
Boulevard between Indian Mounds Park on the east and Short Street on the west.
The lands •camprise fonr sepaxate tracts of like awnership being separated. by
presently City-owned. park and paxkwa,y lands and tw�o privately-awned iurproved
properties. The lands contain a total area of approximately 195,000 squa.re
feet oP which approximately 131,625 square feet thereof is level and usable
in its present state. The lands extend from the said boulevard to the north-
easterly line of the Burlington Northern Inc. operating right-of-way. Such
ri�ht-of'-way line is approximately the top of bluff a1on� the usable land.
The unusab].e land is a slope fram Mounds Boulevard dowmaard to sa,id ri�ht-of-
way line. The sub�ect is in excess of 100 feet above the said railroad being
a1on� the edge of a bluff or plateau with a view of the river vaLley and
dc�wntawn axea. The Mounds Boulevaxd roa.dway is paved and subject is served.
by a11 gublic utilities.
This acquisition will consolidate present City-awned park lands adjoining the
subject and paxk lands will be continuous along the top of the bluff from Inda.an
Mounds Pa.rk to Intersta,te Highwa.y No. 94 with the exception of two privately-
owned. improved properties as noted above.
I have inspected the sub�ect lands and vicwed the several properties considered
by the appraisers in their market approach to value. Ba.sed on such inspection
of the subject property, a review and analysis oP the two appraisal reports,
and an analysis of camparable s�1.es, it is �y conclusion and opinion that the
appraised fair maxket value reported. by Mr. Ray W. Faxicy most accurately reflects
the current market value of the subject lands. Therefore, I hereby concur in and
recom�nend said appraised. value as cited above.
Respect submit d,
