“SACCOMANNO PARK PROPERTY”
TO FRANK M. FISHER
Recitals.
The City of Grand Junction is the owner of that certain real property legally described as: Lot 4 of the Replat of Lot 2, Saccomanno Minor Subdivision, situate in the NE ¼ NW ¼ of Section 35, Township 1 North, Range 1 West of the Ute Meridian, Mesa County, Colorado, as recorded in Plat Book 13 at Page 449 in the office of the Mesa County Clerk and Recorder, commonly known as the Saccomanno Park Property.
The City purchased the Saccomanno Park Property in 1994 as a community park site. While development of the Saccomanno Park Property as a community park is pending, the property and its appurtenant water rights have remained productive through successive farm lease agreements with Robert H. Murphy. Mr. Murphy has notified the City that he will not be renewing the farm lease agreement.
The City Council deems it appropriate to lease the farming rights associated with the Saccomanno Park Property to Frank M. Fisher, for a period of one-year, commencing on March 1, 2010, and expiring on February 28, 2011.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF GRAND JUNCTION, COLORADO:
That the City Manager, on behalf of the City and as the act of the City, is hereby authorized to execute and enter into the attached Farm Lease Agreement with Frank M. Fisher.
PASSED and ADOPTED this 1st day of February, 2012.
/s/ Tom Kenyon
President of the Council
