MILL ST RECOMMENDATION: That the Mayor and Clerk be authorized to execute an Agreement of Purchase and Sale, with David Lesley Monk and Cody Bruce Gilbertson to acquire Part 2 on Reference Plan 58R-16772 at an upset cost of $9,000.00, to facilitate the road reconstruction on Spadina Avenue; said agreement to be satisfactory to the City Solicitor. BACKGROUND: The reconstruction of Spadina Road East from Highland Road East to Mill Street includes intersection improvements at Mill Street. The acquisition of approximately 24.4 square meters of property at 165 Mill Street will allow for the construction of dedicated left and right turn lanes and for an increased turning radius at the northwest corner of this intersection. These intersection improvements will promote enhanced traffic flow and reduce the potential for vehicular conflicts by providing additional space for turning movements of large vehicles i.e. transit bus. The land required has been valued by the City’s Real Estate provider at $2800.00, the remaining costs associated with the acquisition relate to the replacement of fencing, Reference Plan and Legal fees. FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS: All costs associated with this project have been accounted for within the Capital Budget for the project.
