Summary

Council told an online commenter it has received an unsolicited expression of interest for adaptive reuse of 201 Sabine but said the borough would retain possession and that proposals under review do not currently involve full sale; council will discuss the matter in executive session.

An online resident asked Narberth Borough Council whether the borough plans to sell 201 Sabine, including Sabine Park. Council responded that it has received a statement of interest from a developer proposing adaptive reuse — keeping the park and parking lot largely in place while reconfiguring the building for housing — and that the borough would retain possession under the current proposals.

Council said it has not solicited requests for proposals and is not taking action to sell the property; the matter will be discussed in executive session after the meeting. One council member emphasized that past council statements required any future consideration to expand or maintain green space and that a resolution was passed earlier affirming that objective.

What’s next: the council will review the unsolicited proposal in executive session and, if a public proposal arises, it will be presented in a future public meeting with opportunities for comment.
