The owners of many of the easements have indicated that they will donate the required right of way to the City. Appraisals will be required for the other easements and the sites for the reservoirs. Proposals were solicited from five qualified appraisers, which have done work in this area, for preparing appraisals of the land to be acquired. Joseph M. Williams, MAI, of Escondido, is best able to provide the services which we require. He is experienced in the area and can complete the work within the time limit established. An agreement for consulting services will be required. Mr. Williams has quoted a maximum fee of $3,700 to provide the appraisals of the three reservoir sites and supporting easements. This fee is assuming condemnation will only be required for one site. If additional condemnation is necessary, he will be required to expand his reports. This will be included in the agreement as a contingency item. It will not be expended unless expanded appraisals or appraisals of easements not originally comtemplated are required. Adequate funds are budgeted in the Water Systems Improvement Project Account No. W-5080.
