RECOMMENDATION
Approval of Resolution
BACKGROUND
As part of the completion of a master plan for the Minnequa Lake Park and Open
Space Project, the City of Pueblo is planning to secure appraisal services related
to the properties included within the Minnequa Lake Park and Open Space
project area. The appraisal is for the land included within the Minnequa Lake
project area and does not include an appraisal of the water rights required for the
project. A water rights analysis and valuation is being completed separately from
the land appraisal. The Community Development Department prepared a
Request for Proposals (RFP) to complete the Minnequa Lake properties
appraisals and distributed the RFP to five appraisers per City of Pueblo
purchasing policies. The proposal received from Zaleski and Associates in the
amount of $17,000.00 meets the RFP requirements and is recommended for
approval by City Council. The appraisal will be completed over a 60 -day period
and will comply with the requirements of Great Outdoors Colorado and federal
land acquisition requirements in the event the value of the property is used to
match federal funding that might be secured in the future.
FINANCIAL IMPACT
The funds to pay for the appraisal services will be paid from the Minnequa Lake,
Phase 1 Project, PL0405.

THIS AGREEMENT entered into this 11 t h day of Ap r 11 $9: 2 0 0 5 , by and between
of the City of Pueblo . State
of Colorado hereinafter referred to as the "Agency," and Zaleski and Associates , Inc
hereinafter referred to as the "Appraiser."
WITNESSETH THAT:
WHEREAS, the Agency proposes to acquire certain real property and desires that the Appraiser
furnish the Agency certain services with respect to such property, including an appraisal of each parcel of the
property, and the Appraiser represents that he or she is fully qualified to perform such services and will
furnish such services personally, and
WHEREAS the services to be provided under this Agreement are necessary to achieve the purposes
of acquisition and the Uniform Relocation Assistance and Real Property
Acquisition Policies Act of 1970, as amended (URA).
NOW, THEREFORE, the Agency and the Appraiser, for the consideration and under the conditions
hereinafter set forth, do agree as follows:
ARTICLE 1. Property To Be Annraised A description of the real property to be appraised, including an
identification of any interests in the real property to be specifically excluded from appraisal, are set forth in
the attached Exhibit A A separate appraisal is to be furnished for each "parcel." (The term "parcel" means
any tract or contiguous tracts of land in the same ownership, whether any such tract consists of one or more
platted lots or a fractional part of a lot. An easement or other separately held interest in two or more parcels
shall be considered to be a separate parcel for appraisal purposes and an exception to the title to the parcels
so encumbered. An easement in a parcel that is appurtenant to another parcel to be acquired by the Agency
shall be considered to be part of such other parcel and an exception to the title of the parcel encumbered.)
Each parcel shall be considered to include all right, title, and interest of the owner in or to any adjacent or
abutting streets, alleys, or other public rights of way.
ARTICLE 2. Purpose and Basis of Valuations
(a) Purpose and Significance of Appraisals The appraisals to be furnished under this agreement are
required by the Agency for its guidance in making fair and impartial determinations of fair market value and
th just compensation to be offered to each property owner. The Appraiser shall be guided by those objectives
when estimating values. Appraisal reports will be reviewed carefully by the Agency. Accordingly, the text of
each appraisal report must cover all matters germane to the required valuation findings and must provide a
full explanation of the Appraiser's reasoning and his analyses of the evidences of value, so that a reviewer will
be able to follow the Appraiser's analyses and understand how he reached his valuation conclusions.
(b) Appraisal Standards The appraisals under this agreement shall be based on nationally recognized
appraisal standards and techniques to the extent that such principles are consistent with the concepts of value
and the rules on the admissibility of evidence of value under the eminent domain law of the State. Factors
relating to race, color, religion, sex or national origin, or to racial, religious or ethnic identification of
neighborhoods are not relevant to the estimation of value and shall not be considered in connection with
appraisals of residential real property.
