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.
