DATE: July 2, 2013
RE: Approval of Jurisdictional Offers for the Upgrade to the Public Works Field Operations Facility
BACKGROUND
On July 10, 2012, the Common Council approved a relocation order relating to the purchase of property located
adjacent to the existing Central Garage at 639 Witzel Avenue. The upgrade to this facility requires the
acquisition of adjoining properties located on West 3rd Avenue and South Campbell Road.
ANALYSIS
Our right-of-way acquisition consultant has reviewed the property values for these parcels with the property
owners. At this time, the property owners are not willing to sell their properties for the price offered by the City
of Oshkosh. Per State Statutes, the next step in the eminent domain process is for the City of Oshkosh to send
each of the property owners a jurisdictional offer to purchase. When a jurisdictional offer is made, the City
provides the property owners with the funds for the purchase price (i.e. revised offer) we feel is appropriate and
in accordance with the Statutes. The City then assumes ownership of the properties. The owners may
challenge this purchase price in circuit court should they so choose. The following information pertains to these
properties:
Parcel/ Property Address Owner Initial Offer Revised Offer Owner Request
(1) 702 W. 3rd Ave. August Pitz& Sons $46,000 $61,000 $93,500

(4) 690 W. 3rd Ave. Thomas G. & Diane V. $82,000 $90,000 $122,000

FISCAL IMPACT
Funding for this acquisition is included in the "Property Improvements" section of the Capital Improvement
Program.
