SUBJECT: Approval to proceed with a survey a portion of City owned land along
Northeast Drive, just south of MLK Jr. Drive (see attached map)
Submitted by: Noel Anderson, Community Planning & Development Director
Recommended Finance Committee Action: Approval
Summary Statement: This is a request for approval to proceed with a survey for a
portion of land along Northeast Drive, just south of MLK Jr. Drive. The City has received
2 bids from local surveying firms to survey the property, with the lowest bidder being VJ
Engineering, with a bid amount of $2,150.00. The property in question is a disposal
parcel of excess right-of-way from the Northeast Drive and MLK Jr. Drive project. The
reason for the survey is to split the parcel of land off from Northeast Drive and incorporate
it with the 11 acre parcel just to the south of the site in question. Currently, the City has an
interested developer for the 11 acre site for rubble fill purposes.
Therefore, staff recommends that permission be granted to proceed with the survey of the
property in question.
Expenditure Required: $2,150.00 for survey services with VJ Engineering.
Source of Funds: NEIP TIF
Policy Issue: Economic Development, Land Use
Alternative:
Background Information: Since its development in the late 1990s, the City has been actively
working at attracting new development to the Northeast Industrial Park. Surveying of this
land will be a part of attracting new development to the area.
