Additional Backup Information:
A realignment of Elroy Rd by Travis County in 2007 resulted in a slight gap between the City’s Del Valle/Moore’s Crossing Fire and Emergency Medical Services station parcel and the realigned right of way. This fee simple acquisition will result in the southern boundary of the City’s parcel being adjacent and parallel to the realigned right of way. This project is for the Del Valle/Moore’s Crossing Fire and Emergency Medical Services Station. The general route of this project is along Elroy Road.
The City has attempted to purchase the needed property at 7019 Elroy Road. The City and property owner have been unable to agree on the value of the needed acquisition. The Law Department is requesting authorization to file an action in eminent domain on behalf of the City, and to authorize the City to pay for the property interest in an amount determined by the appraisal, updated appraisal(s), or a Special Commissioners’ award.
