SUBJECT: Western End of South Stadium Drive/Quit Claim
INITIATED BY: Engineering Department
Recommendation: Approval is requested to execute a Quit Claim for a
segment of South Stadium Drive from west dead-end east a distance of 166.83
feet to the Maple Ridge Golf Club Limited Partnership.
Background: Tommy Davis has constructed The Links apartment complex on
the property located at the west dead-end of South Stadium drive. the apartment
complex wants to improve security and eliminate unauthorized parking on the
apartment property and at the dead-end during school sponsored events. There
also exist a recorded 20' utilities/access easement to The Maple Ridge Golf
Complex's Maintenance Facility.
Analysis: Tommy Davis, the owner of The Links of Maple Ridge, LLC presented a
site plan that provides a security gate to the apartments and also maintains
access to the Maple Ridge Golf Complex's Maintenance Facility. As part of The
Links site development a modified cul-de-sac was constructed to provide a turn
around area that did not exist before the development. The Links, WC Bradley
Company (Maple Ridge Golf) and the Muscogee County School District were all in
agreement to the modification of the dead-end as indicated by As Built Plans
dated 10/11/2006. These improvements enhanced the traffic flow at the western
end of South Stadium Drive and access to and from the rear entrance to Kinnett
Stadium.
Financial Considerations: There will be no financial expenses incurred by the
City for quit claiming this property to the adjacent property owners.
Legal Considerations: Councilor approval is needed to Quit Claim property. The
City Attorney has reviewed and approved as to form.
Recommendations/ Actions: Approval is requested to execute a Quit Claim for a
segment of South Stadium Drive from west dead-end east a distance of 166.83
feet to the Maple Ridge Golf Club Limited Partnership.
