The request of the City Planner for approval of bid in the amount of$5,600.00 from Appraisal
Associates for appraisal services of disposal parcels acquired as part of the Martin Luther King
Jr. Drive project was reviewed. As part of Martin Luther King Jr. Parkway, acquisition of some
properties was necessary. This request is to appraise the areas surveyed and designated as
disposal parcels., which are remnants of area previously acquired and not used for roadway or
right-of-way purposes. The appraisal will allow the city to dispose of the properties in
compliance with State Code. The city will first offer the land back to the original property
owners at appraisal prices, for which they can utilize a right of first refusal. If they fail to offer
the appraised price, the city can sell the land through the normal public hearing process. The
State would be reimbursed for sale of land as required by the State Code. Staff sent out a request
for appraisal bids to four companies and received one back. Appraisal Associates submitted a
bid in the amount of$5,600.00. It was the recommendation of the City Planner that the bid by
Appraisal Associates in the amount of $5,600.00 for appraisal of the disposal parcels be
approved. Moved by Welper, seconded by Clark that the bid by Appraisal Associates in the
amount of$5,600.00 for appraisal of the disposal parcels acquired as part of the Martin Luther
