Commissioners ask about 'Scarny' property sale; staff notes private ownership and phased approval timeline
Summary
A commissioner asked about a reported real-estate listing for the 'Scarny' property for more than $10 million. Staff said the property is privately owned and described the approved phasing timeline for platting that can extend up to six years.
At the June 17 planning commission meeting a commissioner asked staff about recent real-estate listings indicating the 'Scarny' property was being offered for "10 plus million dollars." Staff replied that the site is privately owned and therefore the city does not control private sale listings.
Staff then summarized the approved phasing and associated timing for development approvals on the property: phase 1 permits have up to two years to plat (staff said phase 1 has been platted), phase 2 has an additional two years, and phase 3 has additional time beyond that — a timeline the staff described as extending to six years in total under the recorded approval schedule.
Commissioners expressed concern about the visual condition of the site; a commissioner characterized it as “turning into a mess.” Staff did not report any new permits or enforcement actions at the June 17 session. No formal action related to the property’s sale or condition was taken at the meeting.
