MEMO:
RE: HUD Procedures for Park Property Acquisitions
The following is a resume of some of the more important procedures
that appear to be necessary to follow under the January 23, 1973 HUD
guidelines (11320.1) .
1. Fair and Just Price
The City Council should by resolution indicate that any price paid
for the land is fair and just in light of other land being sold in the
area. Only in the case of a court award in condemnation proceedings
followed by a trial on the merits of the issue of value or specifically
approved in advance by an agreement with the Fait) area office may a
different price be paid.
2. Appraisals
Each property should be appraised by two competent independent
appraisers from private practice. The appraisers selection need not be
by competitive bidding but an agreement for appraisal services similar
to appendix II of the HUD guidelines should be used. The appraiser
must state that he has no conflict of interest involved in the appraisal.
a. Bach appraiser shall Hive the owner or his representative an
opportunity, by reasonable advance notice in wilting or otherwise, to
accompany the appraiser during his inspection of the property. A record
should be kept of this notice.
b. Fees may be established based on prevailing rates in the area.
c. Appraisers shall not act as negotiators.
d. The appraisals must be reviewed by a competent staff appraiser
or private professional appraiser under contract with the City who shall
determine the adequacy of the appraisal reports. (see para. 21) The
reviewers findings shall be set forth in a written report explaining his
conclusions as to the fair market value.
3. Resolution as to price.
The City Council should then adopt a resolution under Para. 22 estab-
lishing (a) just compensation (fair market value) (b) identifying the
name of the property owner (c) delimiting the property interest to be
acquired, and (d) certifying; that the work of the appraisers and review
appraisal by the staff appraiser or private professional appraiser has
been performed in a competent manner in accordance with State law and
LWD requirements.
4. Statement to Omer.
The City must furnish to each owner a written summary statement of
the basis for the amount established as just compensation together with
a written offer to purchase at the initiation of the negotiations. It
shall include the legal description, the amount of offer, etc. The state-
ment must be very detailed per pare. 23.
5. Notice of Intent to Acquire.
The City shall give the owner an official notice of "intent to
acquire" property. It shall be given as soon as feasible after the
effective date of approval to acquire the real property. The City
shall proceed promptly and initiate purchase negotiations within 90
days following service of such notice, para. 26. A written statement
in non - technical terms shall be furnished to the owner explaining
acquisition procedures. See para. 27.
6. Selection of the Negotiation.
A real estate broker or City staff member may negotiate but neither
appraiser nor review appraiser May ,be the negotiators.
a. The signed statement by the aegotiator setting forth his
qualifications and experience in negotiations. The purchase of real
property shall be submitted to the City.
b. A guide form agreement for negotiation services is found under
Appendix 3 which is optional and may be modified. The suggested 12 page
negotiation services agreement could probably be avoided by more direct
negotiations with the seller.
c. Also, the fee schedule for negotiation services is laid out at
para. 31.
7. Instructions to Negotieetors.
Instructions to contract negotiations should be given before signing
a contract per para. 32.
8. Negotiations.
The disclosure of appraisals to a owner is neither required nor
preincluded by federal law or €LUD policy. The City shall adopt its own
position. A meeting should be set up with the owner or representative
and the first step is to deliver a written offer to the owner per para.
40 with an option agreement attached.
a. The offer moat include a written summary statement of the basis
for the amouut estimated to be just compensation with information similar
to para. 23.
b. If the evidence presented by the owner indicates that new
appraisal evidence should be acquired, the City shall have the appraisal
up dated or obtain a new appraisal. A revision in acquisition price may
be based on the original appraisals if a sound determination can be
made that way. Para. 401 also see para. 40f where a change in the City
determination is a just compensation may be suede.
9. Condemnation.
A diligent effort shall be made to negotiation and if unseccessfut
the City shall than make a final offer to the owner in writing per para.
46 and notice of date of intention to start condemnation.
10. Closing.
a. Before closing,the property shall be inspected and a report
prepared per para. 53.
b. Settlement cost and reporting statement shall be prepared
listing all charges and costs, etc.
c. A Title Opinion shall be delivered following acquisition.
11. A complete history - -of the transaction including a summary record
of dates shall be kept by the City.
a. The City shall file a fiscal year report under form HUD 6501
similar to Appendix 4 as soon as possible after June 30, of each year.

TCE MAINTENANU MART JANUARY 16n31 1974
This maintenance period required 169 man hours for the 15 day schedule.
For the first time we spent under estimates of paid man hours due to the
warm weather, and increased help from CAA members.
The unseasonably warm weather did reduce ice maintenance time on this
reporting period, however the poor ice conditions will result in more
hours to return it to good condition. We only curtailed ice surface
maintenance fully one evening and worked half- shifts four evenings.
We experienced a snowfall on 1/20/74 which was the heavy wet variety
requiring considerable manual labor to remove. The snow blowers were
ineffective and after expending 16 man hours attempting to remove the
snow we consulted Mr. D. Everson who authorized use of the Bobcat and
we subsequently saved the ice from freeeing uneven. We felt this
necessary use together with removal of piles behind some boards consti-
tuting a $150.00 additional fee as authorized in the maintenance contract.
Of the 169 man hours expended (not including city employee's time) 86
hours were spent on Pilot Knob, Country Home Heights, McKee's and some c
cleaning at Highview. The voluntary help at Rahn School accounts for the
additional time needed to maintain the surfaces on the North Side areas.
