STAFF ORIGINATOR: CITY COUNCIL MEETING DATE: TOPIC: AGENDA ITEM 6F Michael Grochala July 23, 2007 Accepting Quit Claim Deed (QCD) from Robert and Joyce Moser. Authorizing Execution of QCD to Robert and Joyce Moser, Lake Dr /35W Interchange Improvements VOTE REQUIRED: Simple Majority BACKGROUND: In preparation for the Lake Drive /35W Interchange project the City acquired property (house and land), located on the comer of Lake Drive and Marshan Lane, from Ms. Elsie Rehbein,. As a part of this purchase, the City received a title insurance commitment from Registered Abstracters, Inc., that indicates there may be vague and ambiguous legal descriptions with possible gaps or overlaps between the property purchased by the City and that of the adjacent property owner to the east (Moser). To rectify this issue the City Attorney has recommended the exchange of deeds between the City and the Moser's with revised and corrected legal descriptions. The Moser's agreed to the exchange subject to the City providing a letter stating that the boundary line as described in the deeds corresponds to the boundary stakes that are currently existing along the property line. The boundary stakes and legal descriptions have been verified by our surveyors from SEH Inc., and the City Attorney has provided written confirmation to the Moser's as per their request. Staff is now requesting council authorization for the Mayor and Clerk to execute the Quit Claim Deed on behalf of the City and for the Council to accept the QCD from the Moser's. RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends approval of a motion to accept the QCD from the Moser's and to authorize the Mayor and City Clerk to execute a QCD to the Moser's. ATTACHMENTS 1.
