7149 — Purchase of
Property on: 7800 SW 59"'

REQUEST
Process payment of Lott & Levine invoice numbered 7149 dated January 8, 2005 in the
amount of $3,132.74, for services rendered in connection with the purchase of the Van Smith
property. Requisition No. 9, FY 2004 =2004 is included.
BACKGROUND AND ANALYSIS
On June 11, 2003, the city entered into an agreement to purchase the Van Smith property for
a passive park. The agreement provided an option to purchase the property by certain dates.
The city sought to extend the option deadlines and as consideration for the extension, the
parties agreed that the city would pay the 2004 property taxes. Mr. Lott was retained by the
city to prepare and negotiate the option agreement. The services reflected in the attached
invoice were provided by Mr. Lott in order to coordinate the option extension.
RECOMMENDATION
I recommend approval of the invoice for payment as the amount of fees and costs are
reasonable and necessary.
