16. Condemnation RequestsEfforts have been unsuccessful to obtain needed easements; therefore, it is recommendedthat a resolution of condemnation be authorized for the following:

Project Name: Lower Neuse River Greenway

Name: Grace LittlejohnLocation: 2021 and 2025 Ann Avenue

Recommendation:

Approve a resolution of condemnation of the fee simple interest in the entire two parcels.

The project requires greenway and conservation easements. The conservation easementcovers all of one parcel and almost all of the other parcel.

The remainder of the other parcel (the Remainder) consists of .28 acre as shown on themap entitled South Neuse River Greenway for The City of Raleigh, and included in theagenda packet (the Acquisition Map).

The City has obtained an appraisal report that considered the highest and best use of theparcels before and after the acquisition as well as the highest and best use of theRemainder. The appraisal report indicates that the value of the parcels after theacquisition of the easements and the value of the Remainder is of little value. A copy ofthe appraisal report is included in the agenda packet. Page 34, shows an after value of$0.00.

Based on that appraisal report, it is recommended that the City determine that theunderlying fee simple interest in the parcels in the after condition as well as theRemainder is of little to no value; that a partial taking of the land would substantiallydestroy the economic value or utility of the underlying fee simple interest in the parcelsas well as the Remainder; and that the fee simple interests of the owner(s) in the entiretwo parcels, including the Remainder, should be condemned.

Negotiations have, thus far, been unsuccessful with the following property owners;therefore, staff recommends that authorization be granted for condemnation be authorizedfor the following:
