SAC-97 -10
e
City of La Porte
Interoffice Memorandum
..
ORIGINAL
To: Robert T. Herrera, City Manager
From:~Litchfield, Director of Finance/ACM
Date: D November 4, 1997
Subject: Street Closing Value for Caniff Road
Street Closing application SAC 97-10 is to close a portion of Caniff Road.
Using the HCAD method of calculating the closing fee, the average cost per square
foot is 26.98 cents. On first blush, this amount is lower than what we normally see.
However, when looking at the location, I can understand the logic behind the value.
The property is located in an undeveloped area 1,700 feet from Underwood Road and
900 feet from Fairmont Parkway. With this information in mind, I do not have a problem
agreeing to close the property for 26.98 cents per square foot, which is equivalent to
$11,750 per acre.
Using this figure, the total amount due the City for closing 70,241 feet of Caniff Road is
$18,954.53.
