Owners of the property had requested permission to utilize a portion of City - owned property for construction of a parking area. The City -owned property contains a storm drain line which cannot be relocated. There was no reason for City to retain this strip of property in fee and Staff recommended approving request. Noting the valuation placed on this strip, Councilman Rosselli felt a higher minimum fee should be set.
