Commission OKs Greater Huron Development Corp. letter of intent to sell roughly 2 acres in Southtown
Summary
The Huron City Commission voted to enter a letter of intent with a prospective purchaser for about 2 acres of South Commercial Lot 2C at $2.25 per square foot, after a brief presentation and limited public details from the Greater Huron Development Corporation.
The Huron City Commission on Dec. 30 voted to authorize the Greater Huron Development Corporation (GHDC) to enter a letter of intent to sell roughly 2 acres of South Commercial Lot 2C in Southtown at $2.25 per square foot.
The motion to approve the GHDC request was made and seconded and passed on a roll call vote. The commission did not receive a completed purchaser disclosure at the meeting; GHDC staff said details remain limited until the prospective buyer provides permission to share them.
The item was introduced under petitions and communications as agenda item 6.1. GHDC representative Ted Hader described the parcel as a parcel in the southwest corner of Lot 2C, saying Lot 2C is “about an 8 and a half acre lot” east of Iverson Auto’s dealership and that the portion under negotiation is “a little less than a quarter of that 8 plus acres.” He said the parcel would be largely fronted on “20 Sixth Street.”
Hader told the commission he would contact the prospect after the meeting and share additional details only if the prospect agreed. The $2.25-per-square-foot price was described in the meeting as consistent with prior sales in that area.
Why it matters: The sale would move a portion of a commercially designated parcel in Huron out of public control; the commission’s authorization allows GHDC to proceed with a purchaser-focused letter of intent and later bring formal sale documents or additional approvals back to the commission as appropriate.
Votes at the meeting: Commissioners recorded the motion to authorize the GHDC letter of intent and voted in favor; the commission recorded a unanimous approval during the roll call.
Additional details: The commission did not provide a parcel legal description, purchaser name, or closing timeline at the meeting. GHDC said it will provide further information pending the purchaser’s permission to disclose it.
