Council authorizes sale of city parcel at 1218 Oaks Avenue to Steve Gravenstein for $98,000

The Superior City Council on Dec. 1 authorized the waiver of the city’s land-sale procedures and directed city officials to sign a purchase agreement to sell the parcel described in meeting materials at 1218 Oaks Avenue to Steve Gravenstein for $98,000. The action also authorized termination of an existing lease dated April 2000 and an assignment of lease dated April 4, 2008. The item was referred from the Nov. 3 council meeting.
The planning director introduced the request and recommended authorizing the sale and lease termination. A council member thanked “Jason” for looking into the matter; no further substantive public comment or objections were recorded. The motion to approve carried on a voice vote; the transcript does not record mover, seconder or a roll-call tally.
What this does and does not do: the council’s action authorizes execution of the purchase agreement and lease termination; the transcript does not show the council approving conveyance paperwork beyond authorizing signatures, nor does it include a title transfer date, closing conditions or contingencies. The transcript also does not provide the parcel legal description beyond the street address, nor does it include information about prior leaseholders beyond the referenced lease dates.
Next steps: city officials are authorized to sign the purchase agreement and proceed with the lease termination process. The meeting record does not include a final closing date or escrow instructions.
