Body
BACKGROUND: The City's consultant, Crawford, Murphy, and Tilly, Inc., has proceeded with the right-of-way acquisition of the needed parcels for the Pioneer Parkway Extension project. The consultant's staff has appraised and completed negotiations for the needed right-of-way from parcel 14-06-451-007.

Attached is a copy of the signed documents. This property is located on the east side of N. Allen Road, just west of 2323 W. Pioneer Parkway. Staff recommends payment for this land acquisition.

IMPACT IF APPROVED: The City's consultant will proceed with the land acquisition for this parcel, which is required in future to begin construction on the first section of the planned roadway extension.
