Lloyd has been an adjoining property owner of the City Park Nine Golf Course for many years. His property is at 1611 West Mulberry and is adjacent to the renovated 6th Green area and the 7th Fairway Tee Boxes. Mr. Lloyd submitted a proposal to Golf Manager Jerry P. Brown to purchase a strip of land along the northerly boundary of his property. This strip of land is 10' wide and 339' long, and contains 3,407 square feet. The location of this strip of land is in between the Golf Course's protective netting and Mr. Lloyd's property. Mr. Lloyd proposed to purchase this stri for,$#4 it abI square footage values as the City used for the She a Drai ge r e ts, ch impacted both Mr. Lloyd's property and the Golf Course. Staff did not identify any problems with conveying this strip to Mr. Lloyd. Conveying this strip will not materially impact the Golf Course and will remove an area that requires special efforts for maintenance and clean up. The subject land is not a stand alone piece of property and can only be useable if combined with adjacent land. Therefore, this tract was not offered to any other area property owners. The proposed sale of this strip of land to Thomas C. Lloyd was presented to the Golf Board for approval on May 21, 2003. The Board unanimously approved the sale. Final agreement was reached with Mr. Lloyd on the sale of this 3,407 square foot tract in early spring of this year. The sale was again presented to the Golf Board for its approval on April 21, 2004. Again, the Board unanimously approved the sale. A copy of the minutes from the Golf Board are attached.
