Summary
The Downtown Development Authority voted to hire Valentino and Associates for $5,200 to survey and split the commercial frontage at 891 Forest Parkway from an adjacent residential parcel, a step staff says is needed to enable sale and redevelopment.
The Downtown Development Authority of the City of Forest Park voted to approve $5,200 in surveying services to split the commercial frontage at 891 Forest Parkway from the adjacent residential parcel at 4987 East Street, staff said.
Deputy Director Patterson and other staff told the board the commercial property is currently recorded as part of a single lot and needs a parcel split to move forward with sale and redevelopment. Staff said Valentino and Associates provided an estimate of $5,200 to complete the survey. "They have given us a estimate of $5,200 and what I'm asking for is for the DDA to approve staff being able to move forward with the serving services of Valentino and Associates at the cost of $5,200 to complete the parcel split," a staff presenter said during the meeting.
Board members moved and seconded the item and conducted a roll-call approval. The motion was recorded as approved and staff was authorized to proceed with the survey contract and the parcel-split work that will enable marketing or disposition of the commercial lot.
Staff did not identify a named mover or seconder in the record provided. The contract value and vendor were stated in the board packet and discussed publicly; staff said that once the survey is complete, the DDA can pursue sale and redevelopment options for the newly created commercial parcel.
