<br /> The City Attorney's Office has prepared the attached resolution which would authorize
<br />me to execute a deed of exchange, I concur with the recommendation of Mr. Jim SFacek; and
<br />therefore, recommend your approval.
<br /> Motion of Mrs. Webb and seconded by Mrs. Lucas, for approval.
<br /> Motion of Mrs. Webb and seconded by Mrs. Lucas, that Item 85-345 be moved to the end
<br />of the Agenda, a~rt~e reqnest of tZe City Attorney to review the matter, and was adopted by
<br />unanimous vote.
<br />
<br /> 85-346 Letter from the City ~anager recommending adoption of a resolution authorizing
<br />the City Manager to convey certain property to the City of Suffolk.
<br />
<br /> "Suffolk's City manager John L. Rowe has requested that the City of Portsmouth consider
<br />selling two small parcels of property in Suffolk to allow for the construction of sewage pump
<br />station. An independent appraisal has been conducted and the value of the property has been
<br />established at $1,000.
<br />
<br /> The City's Director of Public Utilities has evaluated Mr. Rowe's request and feels that
<br />the proposed improvements would benefit both communities. Mr. Spacek has indicated that the
<br />expansion of!the gravity sewer collection system into the Oakridge neighborhood will have a
<br />positive impact on reducing septic tank malfunction problems and their impact on the Lake
<br />Speight watershed.
<br />
<br /> The City Attorney had drafted the attached resolution which authorizes the City to convey
<br />the property in question to the City of Suffolk. Based upon the positive recommendation of
<br />the Director of Public Utilities, I, therefore, recommend City Council's approval £or the sale
<br />of property in that amount of $1,000 with the understanding that the City of Suffolk would
<br />incur the cost of the appraisal."
<br />
