the property is directly east of, and adjacent to, the proposed Lost Canyon Park properties. The
proposed acquisition will assist in implementing the future development of park and trail
amenities. A map showing the property site is attached.
The purchase price of the property, including environmental report, title report, and title
insurance policy is $35,000.
