City Attorney Light read Ordinance No. 1548, Series 2009. City Manager Fleming explained the City of Louisville is the owner of a 1.2-acre parcel of real property located in unincorporated Boulder County. The street address is 7507 Dyer Road, Louisville, Colorado and is commonly referred to as the Damyanovich Homestead Parcel. This parcel was subdivided from the 13- acre Damyanovich Open Space Property when it was purchased in July of 2007. The property contains an existing house, barn and accessory building, which was not acquired for and is not being held or used for any park, open space, municipal or governmental purposes. It was acquired solely as excess property and a general asset to be sold and disposed of in order to help defray the costs of the City's acquisition of adjacent open space. Rachael and Greg Kras submitted a proposed purchase contract to buy and sell real estate for sale of the property for $415,000, through the City's real estate broker Steve Anderson. The sale of the homestead parcel, along with Boulder County's $200,000 conservation easement payment will off-set a significant portion of the City's initial cost for the Damyanovich Open Space Property. City Attorney Light reviewed a revision to Resolution No. 13, Series 2009, which includes a provision ratifying the City Manager's execution of the purchase contract.
