Implementation of the project requires the acquisition of six parcels. The current schedule calls for the purchase of the six parcels over a two-year period followed by a one-year construction period. The purchase of this parcel is programmed for the second - year phase of right-of-way acquisition. Mr. George Hamilton Jones, MAI, was retained to appraise all six prop- erties. He completed the appraisal on November 20, 1984, and concluded that the fair market value of the subject parcel was $185,000 as of September 5, 1984. Mr. and Mrs. Harkins accepted the City's offer of $185,000 contingent upon City Council approval. The property at 203 38th Street is 25 feet wide by 95 feet deep, and is on the corner of 38th Street and Balboa Boulevard. The structure is a 1,260-square-foot, two-story single-family dwelling. The dwelling is currently rented on a monthly basis for $600 per month. The tenant had occupied the dwelling less than 90 days, making her ineligible for relocation benefits if she moves from the property at the City's request. However, the property owner is eligible for benefits in lieu of moving a business in the amount of $5,700. It is recommended that the City purchase 203 38th Street for the appraised fair market value of $185,000. Sufficient funds have been budgeted using 50% Gas Tax monies and 50% AHFP funding for the acquisition of parcels along Balboa Boulevard. The attached Exhibit.
