In April of 2003, the City Council executed a Land Exchange Agreement with St. Vincent De Paul
(SVDP) to convey the property at 129 McConnell Street to SVDP in exchange for four parcels at the
northwest corner of High Street and Center Street. When the exchange occurred, it was anticipated
that the property acquired by the City would be developed as a municipal parking lot. As part of the
land exchange, the City agreed to lease 12 parking stalls within the future parking lot to SVDP for their
exclusive use during their regular business hours.
While the municipal parking lot was never constructed on this property, the City still leased, and con-
tinues to lease, 12 parking stalls to SVDP on the portion of the property immediately adjacent to the
alley off Center Street. The City does not intend to construct a municipal parking lot and instead pro-
poses to convey the property at High Street and Center Street to Aspen Venture Group (AVG). Once
this land acquisition occurs, AVG plans to construct eight single-family attached townhome units on
the property. To accommodate this development, the 12 existing perpendicular parking stalls on the
property used by SVDP must be redesigned as well as reduced to four parallel parking stalls. SVDP
has agreed to this reduction in parking stalls and AVG is preparing development plans that will include
four parking stalls near the alley.
A first amendment to the Land Exchange Agreement is necessary to reduce the amount of parking
stalls reserved for SVDP from 12 to four. Staff has prepared a first amendment to the agreement to
address this reduction in spaces.
