Council approves sale of small floodplain parcel at 910 Ingersoll Place
Summary
Council approved a real-estate contract to sell city-owned property at 910 Ingersoll Place; the parcel is in a floodplain and the buyer intends to use it for parking expansion.
South Beloit — The City Council approved a real-estate contract Sept. 2 to sell a city-owned parcel at 910 Ingersoll Place. Staff described the lot as located in a floodplain where building is restricted; the purchaser intends to use the property for parking and related non‑building purposes.
Nut graf: Selling the floodplain parcel removes the city’s maintenance obligation for that small lot while allowing an adjacent property owner to expand parking; staff said no building will be permitted because of floodplain rules.
Staff summarized the background: the lot had been used as right-of-way/unused city property and the city had no outstanding obligations requiring relocation of the parcel. Council voted in favor of the contract as read.
Ending: The sale moves forward under the terms discussed; staff will complete closing steps and ensure deed restrictions reflecting floodplain limitations are recorded.
