UDOT purchase of city parcels for I-15 widening
The Utah Department of Transportation wants two city-owned parcels in Farmington for the I-15 widening: parcel 2885, where the city has a skate park and a field, and parcel 2885B, which covers easements. The proposed price for parcel 2885 is $1,734,300 plus a $1,500 timeliness incentive, with UDOT's estimated cost to rebuild the park features at $1,527,873, and a UDOT surplus public works yard valued at $415,000 credited against the price. The easements are listed at $16,400 in the staff memo and $19,400 in the contract, and the materials do not fully reconcile on what the city nets. On Oct. 6 the council voted 5-0 to table the contracts because items remained to be worked out. They returned on the Oct. 20 agenda, and no result is in the records yet.

Tabled · 5-0
The council voted 5-0 to table approval of the contracts for both parcels. The city manager said he wanted to table the item to the Oct. 20 meeting because items remained to be worked out; the contracts returned on the Oct. 20 agenda, whose outcome is not recorded here. Proposal as presented in the packet: City Manager Brigham Mellor recommended approving the last two sale and mitigation contracts. Parcel 2885 is priced at $1,734,300 with a $1,500 timeliness incentive; UDOT's estimated cost to cure for the skate park, field, parking, lighting and landscaping is $1,527,873. A UDOT surplus parcel, the West End Public Works Yard, valued at $415,000 is credited against the price. Parcel 2885B covers easements, listed at $16,400 in the memo and $19,400 in the contract. The materials contain figures that do not reconcile, including the net due to the city.
