Title

A resolution authorizing the exchange of property in the vicinity of the intersections of Memorial Boulevard and Stadium Drive with North Peachtree Road with the Mesquite Independent School District (MISD) and authorizing the Mayor to execute the exchange agreement with MISD for such purpose.

 

Body

MISD intends to construct Middle School No. 9 on the east side of Memorial Stadium and must acquire a 1.506-acre portion of an existing 1.902-acre city property at 301 North Peachtree Road for storm water detention.  This tract was originally acquired by the City in 1986 for a future fire station but is no longer needed.  In exchange, MISD is offering a 0.918-acre tract on which the West Mesquite water tank sits.  The city currently leases the water tank site from MISD.

 

By separate ordinance, a 0.841-acre portion of Stadium Drive right-of-way will be proposed for abandonment to MISD.

 

Recommended/Desired Action

Staff recommends approval of the resolution.
