Gail Sturdivant, deputy public works director, presented a resolution regarding city‑owned real property in the Park Vista area identified by El Paso County tax schedule number 63260‑0282. She said the parcel is a small triangular wedge that sits adjacent to lots already owned by James B. Klein and that the city received the parcel under an intergovernmental agreement related to the Park Vista channel, bridge and intersection improvements.

Sturdivant said the city obtained an appraisal under the real‑estate manual that placed the value at $24,500 and that Mr. Klein had agreed to purchase the parcel for that amount, subject to the city retaining two easements: one for public improvements (channel work) and one for utilities. She said the Park Vista improvements are funded jointly by the county and city and that some properties in the area will be removed from floodplain following the work.

Staff asked council to consider placing the resolution on the Sept. 9 consent agenda. Councilman Hincham confirmed the parcel is part of the broader set of acquisitions tied to taking residents out of the floodplain.

Ending: Council did not vote on the resolution during the work session. Staff requested consent placement on the Sept. 9 agenda and indicated the sale would retain necessary public easements.
