Additional Comments:
The above-noted costs are required to conduct a traffic and environmental impact assessment, for which an additional appropriation is required. The report also discloses, that at an acquisition cost of $65,000 per acre, total costs of acquiring this treestand would be $1.6 million (land acquisition plus incidentals).  A complete Financial Impact Statement will be provided with a subsequent report. This land acquisitioin was not included in any existing budgets. Until the sources of financing have been finalized, it will not be possible to estimate all financial impacts.  Financing sources investigated to date include a combination of the use of  an additional appropriation, reserve funds, a capital account, the waiving of development fees and the exchange of lands.  All of these options involve differing impacts on the City's budgets.
