Council approves two resolutions to tidy right-of-way records and offer surplus parcel to neighboring owner
Summary
Legal counsel presented and the council approved Resolution O2-2026 to transfer county right-of-way interests now inside the city, and Resolution O3-2026 to offer a surplus parcel to an adjoining landowner at appraised value while preserving city easements.
Legal counsel described two related land-use resolutions and the council approved both by voice vote.
On Resolution O2-2026, staff said the item is a cleanup tied to a 1989 land acquisition in which the city and county each took interests; the land has since been annexed into Lafayette and the resolution allows the county to transfer its remaining right-of-way interest to the city.
Legal counsel then introduced Resolution O3-2026, saying an adjoining property owner has approached the city, has paid surveying and appraisal costs, and is willing to pay the appraised value to acquire surplus city real estate adjacent to the site. Counsel emphasized the city will retain necessary utility easements and right-of-way protections.
Both resolutions were moved, seconded and approved on voice votes with no recorded roll-call tallies in the transcript.
