BACKGROUND INFORMATION:
The Kohlenberg Reconstruction Project is one of the approved projects in Proposition A of the City of New Braunfels 2023 Bond Program. The project will improve the current roadway to four lanes, improve drainage infrastructure, provide intersection enhancements and provide for sidewalks and a shared use path.
ISSUE:
In order to accomplish this project, it is necessary to acquire right-of-way and utility easements from several parcels. Continental Autonomous Mobility has agreed to dedicate the necessary right-of-way to accomplish this project.
While the right of way is being dedicated, the City has agreed to a settlement of $80,000 for the reconstruction of the existing fence and gate on the property to align with the new driveway connection.
FISCAL IMPACT:
Funding for the expenditure portion of this transaction is incorporated in the 2023 Bond Program, therefore sufficient funds are available.
Recommendation
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends the approval of this dedication.
