Body
SUMMARY & BACKGROUND:
This Ordinance authorizes expending $19,000 from the Contractual Services line item of the Division of Business Development’s budget for the purposes of performing yellow book commercial appraisal services on the five TARTA-owned transit stations in Downtown Toledo. The City is working with Toledo Area Regional Transit Authority (TARTA) and the Federal Transit Administration (FTA) to release all interests in the transit stations and bus loop in order to facilitate several downtown redevelopment projects, including the city-owned Madison Building. Pursuant to Ordinance 433-17, the City is required to acquire and transfer the Park Station, which is adjacent to the Madison Building, to Nasby LLC in order to facilitate the sale of the Madison Building property. Providing the FTA with a yellow book appraisal for each of the five transit stations is required for FTA to release its interests in the properties.
