Wright Principal Sawmills Elementary School Group Code 8535 PTA of Sawmills Elementary School Tax Exemption: # 81-3073384 AGENDAITEM9A MEMO DATE: SUBJECT: October 16, 2018 Discussion: Property Timberline Lumber Company Discussion: The Town of Sawmills Town Council during their regularly schedule September meeting, directed the town staff to investigate methods to resolve nuisance andj public safety issues related to a property owned by the Timberline Lumber Company LLC. This property is commonly referred to as the Kohler and Campbell Property within community due to its original use. The property has been significantly occupied by any commercial or industrial use in overa decade, and has had minimal maintenance work done to the structure. Due to this the property has been a re-occurring nuisance issue for the Town of Sawmills. Additionally, as the property has generally remained empty or under-utilized it has been a hot spot for different criminal activity. Both the nuisance issues and related criminal issues have been increasing over the last Currently the property ist three years (2016, ,2017,2018) delinquent with property taxes, resulting in total of $4,415.40 owed to the Town of Sawmills. In total owing $22,439.32 currently to all two years, as there have been no active uses of the property. taxing agencies. Currently there are multiple options to address the concerns- 1. Tax Foreclosure - The town can begin the process of tax foreclosure, with the possibility combining efforts with Caldwell County. This process could allow for new ownership of the property, but at minimum result in the collection oft back taxes. 2. Traditional Nuisance Abatement - Due to the structure being large in size (approx. 160,000 sqft) and the property being. just over 19 acres, the method of traditional nuisance abatement could be costly. The town could begin the process of formally abating the nuisance, which could result in the demolition of the structure. The town would be responsible for the cost of abatement, which would result in a lien on the 3. Private Redevelopment - Partnership with owner to redevelop and repair property. The town could work with property owner to discuss different funding and grant options for redevelopment. Municipal governments often act as the intermediary for funds coming from the state and federal government for commercial and industrial development. property, totaling the cost oft the abatement. 4. Town Site Control - The town has the ability toj purchase property in order to redevelop for future industrial and commercial development. There are grant funds of up to $150,000 available for demolition, as well as low interest loans to rebuild shell buildings for development. This project could potentially be a partnership with Caldwell County and the Caldwell County EDC. The goal would be to both recoup any investment costs into the property, while getting a currently underutilized property closer to meeting its potential economic value. Attached is a GIS overview oft the property. Recommendation: Staffrecommends Council discuss this matter and decide how they wish toj proceed. 8io U3KVB a8 NOITEH AGENDA ITEMS 9B MEMO DATE: SUBJECT: October 16, 2018 Discussion: Lighting Sawmills Municipal Park Discussion: The fiscal year 2017/2018 budget included $70,000 for repairs oft the Sawmills Municipal Park lighting. That original budget was to replace the wooden poles on the large baseball field with metal poles. The poles need repair due age, insects, and animals causing damage to the poles. During that time period the cost oft the project exceeded the budgeted figure. Staff was directed during the budgeting process to work to find a solution to the ball field lighting needs. After further investigation the staff wish to recommend a complete update to the current lighting system. This is due to the age of the system, continued maintenance costs, and overall state of the system. Thej proposal would be to update the system with metal polls and LEDI lighting, replacing all current ballfield and walking trail lighting. The replacement and repair work have been quoted by Musco a lighting solutions company. The total replacement and repair costs are estimated to be $469,000.00 (four-hundred and sixty-nine thousand dollars). This cost includes the replacement of all wooden polls, the installation of LED lighting on all town lights, and includes a 25-year maintenance contract. The maintenance contract would cover all typical wear and aging of system. Possible additional costs would be Overall the system has the opportunity to save annual maintenance and electrical costs. Additionally this lighting system should be an effective lighting solution for the next 25 years. incurred ift the system is placed in rocky or hard to dig soils.
