Redevelopment staff told the commission April 15 that Hammond City has launched a residential property portal on gohammond.com to streamline the process of selling city parcels for single‑family residential construction.
Cynthia, who presented the memo, said the portal opened April 1 and that "since it opened up two weeks ago, we have 22 people interested." The portal URL given in the meeting was gohammond.com/property-portal.
During the meeting a motion was made to refer properties to staff and to issue a request for expressions (RFE) to begin marketing parcels; commissioners voted to refer the properties to staff and to issue the RFE, with the motion passing 5-0. Staff said commissioners would see follow-up materials within about a month.
The memo and the referral direct staff to proceed with the marketing process; commissioners did not at this meeting adopt a sales plan or pricing schedule for specific parcels.
