STAFF REPORT
The original concept plans for development of Seccombe
Lake Park included the area north of Seventh Street and west of
Waterman Avenue. However, this area was deleted when the scope
of this project was reduced. It is now planned for this City
property to be used for the expansion of pioneer Cemetery.
sale.
supply
About 1,600 grave sites are currently available for
At a consumption rate of approximately 220 per year, this
is expected to last for 7.25 years.
It is planned to develop this City property for
expansion of Pioneer Cemetery in two phases. The first phase is
the 2.1 acres on the northwest corner of Waterman Avenue and
Seventh Street, as shown on the attached map. Improvement of
Phase I can be started immediately, with no unusual construction
problems. Development of Phase II will entail installing a
storm drain and filling the ravine. Also, the Little League
Baseball Field will have to remain in service until the second
new field, south of Seventh Street, is completed.
The Preliminary Estimate of Cost, dated 9-29-90, shows
an amount of $102,177 for improving Phase I. About 1,000 grave
sites can be provided per acre, which equates to 2,100 for the
2.1 acres in Phase 1. The City receives $575 for each grave
site. Therefore, the total anticipated revenue from Phase I is
$1,207,500.
Improving Phase I for cemetery use will significantly
enhance the visual effect for motorists traveling on Waterman
Avenue. A wrought iron fence will be constructed in order to
allow the landscaping to be visible from Waterman Avenue.
We recommend that $102,177 be allocated, from the tax
allocation bond proceeds from the Central City East
Redevelopment Project Area, to finance the cost for improving
Phase I.
