Title

Authorizing the City Manager to execute a Special Warranty Deed accepting the donation and conveyance of real property from CESM Investments, LLC to the City of Pflugerville legally described as BEING ALL OF THAT CERTAIN TRACT OR PARCEL OF LAND OUT OF AND PART OF THE JOHN VAN WINKLE SURVEY NO. 70, ABSTRACT 787, SITUATED IN TRAVIS COUNTY, TEXAS, SAID TRACT OF LAND BEING MORE PARTICULARLY DESCRIBED AS BEING A PORTION OF THAT CERTAIN TRACT OF LAND CONVEYED TO RGT/CHARLESTON PARTNERS, LTD.

Summary

The subject tract is located south of New Meister Ln and runs between Schultz Ln and Springbrook Dr.  A large portion of it is immediately adjacent to parkland that was dedicated and donated as part of the Villas at Springbrook Project (formerly known as the Emerson Apartments) .  The tract is 2.722 acres and was a lot created as a buffer between the multi-family and single-family residential properties.  The acquisition of this property will enlarge the parkland, eliminate a strip of property that would most likely end up as "no man's land" and allow for seamless development and maintenance of the properties.

 

Status

The Parks & Recreation Commission reviewed the proposed donation at its June 21, 2018 meeting and recommends acceptance of this land.

 

Attached are the Special Warranty Deed, Title Survey and the Conceptual Park Plan that was prepared through the parkland dedication process for the Villas at Springbrook project.
