SOUTH LAKE
MEMORANDUM
(September 5, 2017)
To: Shana Yelverton, City Manager
From: Rob Cohen, Public Works Director
Subject: Accept a 12,800 square foot right of way dedication on the
south side of Dove Road at the intersection of Dove Road and
Kirkwood Boulevard.
Action
Requested: Accept a 12,800 square foot right of way dedication on the south
side of Dove Road at the intersection of Dove Road and Kirkwood
Boulevard.
Background
Information: The City is embarking upon the installation of 3 traffic signals within
the Kirkwood corridor, one of which is at the intersection of Dove
Road and Kirkwood Boulevard. This right of way is necessary to
install the traffic signal facilities on the south side of the intersection
to control southbound traffic on Kirkwood approaching Dove Road
and eastbound traffic on Dove Road.
In exchange for this dedication, the property owner has requested
that the City install the remainder of the traffic signal facilities at a
later date when Kirkwood is extended south of Dove Road. As
discussed in Executive Session on June 20, 2017, the expense of
the completion of the traffic signal is considerably less than the
estimated market value of the property.
The property owner requested modifications to the City's standard,
approved right of way language all of which were approved by the
City Attorney.
Financial
Considerations: Funding for future installation of traffic signal facilities will be the
Kirkwood Boulevard/T.W. King and Kirkwood Boulevard/Dove Road
intersection improvements project which was originally budgeted in
FY 2017 and supplemented by residuals from previous CIP project
savings.
Strategic Link: The acceptance of the right of way links to the City's strategy map
relative to the focus areas of Mobility and Infrastructure. The
