DISCUSSION
The attached plat shows the proposed portion of Kerper Boulevard to be vacated.
The abutting properties are owned by Oarka Corp., a/k/a Hawkeye Boat Sales &

maintenance of any existing and future public and private utilities.
With reservation of the entire lot for utility easements, the property has been valued
at $1.25 per square foot, for a total of (;5,750. A credit for surveying and platting
of $450 established a purchase price of $5,300.

vacated, except for reserving the utility easements as noted.
t would recommend that the area indicated by Lot 2A of Bradley Place on the

City's interest in the subject area on February 19, 2001. I would further
recommend that the purchase price be established at (;5,300, plus platting,
