Later, a budget of $801,242 was established and a concept for the Indian River Drive /Main Street intersection and Main Street Boat Ramp Area was discussed by staff and representatives from Neel- Schaffer, Inc. The main purpose for undertaking this project were to (1) improved usability and safety of Main Street Boat Ramp; (2) improve ambiance of Main Street/US 1 /Indian River Drive intersections; (3) create "Sence of Place" for central downtown; (4) protect and enhance "View of the River "; and, (5) improved traffic and pedestrian circulation and safety. It was further discussed that the best method to achieve these concepts was to purchase the 0.12 acre parcel located at 1302 Indian River Drive owned by Bettoina Boudrot. Later and upon further discussion of the concept, Council authorized the City Manger to acquire two appraisals to seek the market value of the property. Two appraisals of been received prepared by Boyle & Drake and W.H. Benson. The appraisals reported a value of $300,000 and $322,000 respectively. Upon reviewing the appraisals the City Manager entered into negotiations with the project owner's attorney, Kevin Doty. Based on Council approval, a conditional offer was signed at a price of $395,000 with the contingency that, "The City will agree to accept a deed containing the condition that the purchased property shall only be used in conjunction with parks, cultural or waterfront recreational activities, with this limitation to be self- extinguishing after a thirty -year (30) period of time." The City has provided an offer $75,000 over the estimated market value for the following reasons: 1. The appraisals could have undervalued the property by: a. Not giving enough credit for buildable property; b. Not completely providing for highest and best use; 2. With City property surrounding the area, the property is a key component of the project which significantly adds to the intrinsic value to the City; 3. Initial internal estimates were greater that the appraisals; and, 4. FY 07 CRA Budget has funds to purchase property and enough to move forward with design costs.
