Requesting approval to accept the donation of right-of-way and easement at property located at 0 West Gwinnett Street (PIN 2-0046 -03-011) necessary to facilitate the West Gwinnett Street Road Widening Project in association with the Arena Development. This property is currently owned by Tenenbaum Inc. and is located on the north side of Gwinnett Street to the east of the Springfield Canal. The City needs to acquire 0.54 acres of fee simple right of way and 0.09 acres of easement to facilitate the Gwinnett Street project. The Tenenbaum family has agreed to donate this required land in support of the new arena project. Testing revealed some recognized environmental conditions on the property and the City has entered the Brownfield program, which provides limitations on liability and remediation. On July 2, 2019 staff submitted a Brownfield application to the Georgia Eniviornmental Protection Division. This application included the corrective action plans for this and other affected parcels in the Gwinnett Street project.
