BACKGROUND INFORMATION:
Ratepayers voted to dissolve BexarMet and consolidate it into the San Antonio Water System (SAWS) during the November, 2011 election. The U.S. Department of Justice cleared the election results in January, 2012, to allow the dissolution of the utility. BexarMet assets and liabilities were transferred to SAWS. The former BexarMet operations are being integrated into SAWS. SAWS real estate department has been identifying and evaluating the former BexarMet interests and has determined some of the property interests are not necessary for the operation of the system.
SAWS is a municipal owned utility. SAWS follows the same procedure under Municipal Code as city departments that want to declare property as surplus. The request is submitted to Office of EastPoint & Real Estate Services which sends the request and exhibits to departments that provide services to, or construct infrastructure on the properties. The departments respond if there is a need for the property, or if the property can be disposed of. If the property has been determined as surplus, SAWS is then authorized to dispose of the property in accordance with Chapter 272 of the Local Government Code.
The San Antonio Water System Board of Trustees declared the above-listed properties as surplus to the system and authorized disposal of the 28 properties through Resolution 13-255 dated August 13, 2013.

ALTERNATIVES:
City Council could choose not to approve these requests; however that would prevent SAWS from disposing of property that is no longer necessary for the operation of the Water System and would require SAWS to continue maintaining the properties.
FISCAL IMPACT:
There is no fiscal impact to the City related to the sale of the surplus property. All revenue associated with the sale of property will go to SAWS who owns and controls said surplus property.
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends approval of the declaration as surplus and authorization to dispose of 28 real properties owned by the San Antonio Water System and authorized by SAWS Resolution 13-255 dated August 13, 2013.
The City of San Antonio's Planning Commission reviewed this request at its regular meeting on May 14, 2014.
