Item 4DCity of Southlake M E M O R A N D U M February 26, 2008 TO: Shana Yelverton, City Manager FROM: Steve Polasek, Director of Community Services Authorize an agreement with Marcel Bosworth for the relocation of the SUBJECT: Continental Storage Building Action Requested: City Council authorization to enter into an agreement with Marcel Bosworth, President of Marine Quest, for the relocation of the Continental storage building located on 1340 West Perry Circle to the City Service Center located at 1950 E. Continental. Background Information: Marine Quest, Inc., owns property on East Continental adjacent to park property on West Perry Circle. Marcel Bosworth, president of the company, proposed that if alternate storage suitable for the needs of the parks and recreation staff could be obtained, he would be willing to pay to lease the space for a period of up to three years as well as develop the existing land as a public park. The Continental storage building provides 5,000 square feet of storage for materials ranging from fertilizer and soil amendments for athletic fields to recreation program materials and decorations. Currently, the facility is also being used to store City items for auction. Unable to find space in Southlake that would adequately replace the building, Mr. Bosworth proposed relocating the existing building to a site determined by the City within the Service Center on Continental Boulevard. Marine Quest would dismantle the building, pour a concrete slab, provide the electric service, replace or repair any damaged elements, re- assemble and paint the building on the new site, as well as brick the southern elevation facing Continental. The advantages to this proposal include improved aesthetics along Continental Boulevard and a refurbished storage building situated in a more secure location. Execution of the proposed agreement is contingent upon the Developer being able to obtain approvals (zoning and plat approval) for an adjoining development. This item is separate from any park dedication requirements for his proposed development which would be brought forward as part of a future developer agreement should the necessary approvals be obtained. Financial Considerations: There are no direct financial considerations related to this request as all costs associated with the relocation are to be borne by the developer. Shana Yelverton, City Manager February 26, 2008 Page 2 Financial Impact: There is no financial impact anticipated as staff currently mows and maintains the existing site. Board Review: The Parks and Recreation Board reviewed Mr. Bosworth’s park dedication request, as well as his proposal to relocate the storage building, and recommended approval (6-1) at their September 10, 2007 meeting. Legal Review: Proposed agreement has been reviewed by the City Attorney. Alternatives: City Council consideration Supporting Documents: Supporting documents include the following items: Draft agreement  Aerial depicting location for placement of the building  Staff Recommendation: City Council authorization to enter into an agreement with Marcel Bosworth, President of Marine Quest, for the relocation of the Continental storage building located on 1340 West Perry Circle to the City Service Center located at 1950 E.
