• Mr. Rick Jopke February 3, 1998 Con't page 2 Our proposal as follows: Negotiations These activities include the following: • Meet with staff to discuss project coordination, timing and procedures. Attend any other meetings with staff as requested. • Read appraisal and review and discuss with appraisers as necessary. • Prepare just compensation Offer Letter for the City's signature on all parcels. • Prepare landowners information booklet for each parcel. • Deliver Offer Letter and Booklet to owners and begin negotiations. • In negotiations, gather information and work towards resolving disagreements and disputes to get a purchase agreement signed. • All written and oral communication will be documented in each file. • • Prepare a weekly report on status of negotiations. To estimate the cost of landowners negotiations is difficult. A number of variables enter into it such as how well the project is received by the owners, the impact of the takings and if the owners are represented by attorneys. Negotiation Services Three parcels at $750.00 per parcel = ($2,250.00).
