Resolution authorizing the Mayor and the Director of Finance, on behalf of the City of Pittsburgh, to issue Deeds in the form approved by the City Solicitor for property in the 19th Ward of the City of Pittsburgh designated as part of parcel 34-P-1 for expansion of rear yards that have extended into the Moore Greenway by four (4) property owners on Dunster Street in the Brookline section of the City of Pittsburgh.
Body
WHEREAS, The City of Pittsburgh owns certain property in the 19th Ward designated as Moore Greenway, Block 34-P Lot No. 1; and
WHEREAS, Four (4) adjacent property owners on Dunster Street being parcels 61-C-209, 211, 213 and 215-217 have extended their rear yards into this Greenway land over the past several years; and
WHEREAS, It is not feasible to reclaim their extensions and therefore the Department of City Planning and the Finance Department have authorized a subdivision of parcel 34-P-1 to separate out rear yard extensions for the adjacent owners; and
WHEREAS, The City of Pittsburgh does not prepare subdivisions and therefore the four (4) property owners will provide subdivisions at their expense for the City with approval by the City Planning Department.
Be it resolved by the Council of the City of Pittsburgh as follows:
Section 1. The proper officers of the City of Pittsburgh are hereby authorized to execute and deliver Deeds in form approved by the City Solicitor to each of the four (4) property owners under the following conditions after their subdivisions are approved:

2. The purchaser is required to install a fence on the new property lines within sixty (60) days of the completion of the sale to prevent any further encroachment. The fence design must be appropriate to being adjacent to a Greenway and must have approval by the City Planning Department.
3. When a deed is recorded for each property extension the County Block and Lot Section will assign Block and Lot numbers. These parcels will not have any required street frontage and therefore must be combined with the main lots with street frontage into a new single parcel with the combined lot description. This will facilitate one tax bill for the combined parcels and must be approved by the Zoning Division of the City Planning Department.
Section 2. BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that said conveyance shall be subject to the following terms and conditions.
A. All State and Local Transfer Taxes, if any, shall be paid by the purchaser.
B. All proper closing charges shall be paid by the purchaser.
