Background and Analysis:
The City is in the process of moving the mitigation site operations to Quince Street Village. Quince Street Village is a larger site that will accommodate additional housing units and community buildings. This agreement will allow CCS and their volunteers temporary access to the Quince Stormwater Property adjacent to the Quince Street Village, where they will build the facilities needed at the site.
Currently, the stormwater property is an asphalt parking lot. In the future, the City will redevelop the property into a stormwater facility. The stormwater redevelopment project is separate from the Quince Street Village project.
The facilities constructed on the stormwater property site will be moved to Quince Street Village by the end of the agreement period. The agreement also authorizes the City to purchase all the materials required to construct the facilities.
Neighborhood/Community Interests (if known):
Several public meetings were held concerning the move of the City’s mitigation site to Quince Street. Those meetings discussed the need and reasoning for adding facilities as a part of the move to Quince Street Village. In general, neighborhood/community participants did not raise concerns with the proposed facilities.
Options:
1. Approve a Resolution authorizing an Access Agreement with Catholic Community Services to Construct Facilities on Quince Stormwater Property and authorize the City Manager to sign the Agreement. The project will proceed as planned.
2. Do not approve the Resolution authorizing an Access Agreement. If not approved, then Catholic Community Services and their volunteers will not be able to construct the facilities needed at Quince Street Village. The City would have to explore more traditional methods to construct the facilities, which would be cost prohibitive.
3. Consider the Resolution at another time.
Financial Impact:
The cost to purchase materials is approximately $55,000. The funding source is
American Rescue Plan Act dollars allocated to the Quince Street Village emergency project.
