SUMMARY
This item asks City Council to approve the City's acquisition by eminent domain of a parcel located at 1095 Alpine Avenue, Chula Vista, for the construction of the Fire Station 9 Replacement Project (implementation of the Fire Stations Repairs/Replacements (Measure P) project). Purchase of this property was previously approved by Council Action on December 19, 2017 (Resolution No. 17-0476) however agreement for a voluntary sale could not be reached with the property owner. Negotiations will continue with the property owner in an effort to conclude this acquisition in an amicable manner but it is currently necessary to proceed with the acquisition process in order to construct the new fire station in a timely manner. Purchase price and valuation are not a part of this Resolution and are not to be considered in this action.
