Council approves right-of-way purchases for Erie–Monroe roundabout; church parcel cost $52,907, small take $300
Summary
Council cleared two right-of-way items for the Erie and Monroe roundabout: a 0.41-acre permanent and temporary take from Sylvania United Church of Christ for $52,907, and a tiny 0.001-acre parcel from Julie A. Watkins for $300; both ordinances passed as emergency measures.
Mister Shaw presented two right-of-way actions for the Erie & Monroe roundabout project. The city would acquire 0.41 acres from Sylvania United Church of Christ, including a temporary construction easement and one tree, for $52,907 to accommodate the roundabout footprint. The second acquisition was a 0.001-acre permanent and temporary easement from Julie A. Watkins to tie in a driveway; the negotiated payment was $300.
Council introduced and then adopted Ordinance 66-2026 (church parcel) and Ordinance 67-2026 (Watkins parcel) as emergency measures. Shaw said about half of all required acquisitions for the project are complete and staff continues to negotiate the remaining takes.
