Council discusses potential $30,000 sale, easement for landlocked Allen Road parcel
Summary
Mayor Ed Kolar led discussion on an Allen Road parcel with a $30,000 offer from an adjacent, landlocked property owner; council discussed requiring an easement, offering a lease for farming, or retaining the land, with no formal vote recorded.
The council reopened a months‑old discussion about a city-owned parcel on Allen Road during the Aug. 19 meeting. Mayor Ed Kolar described a map and said an adjacent property owner—reported to be landlocked—offered $30,000 for the parcel but would require an easement to access another adjacent city-owned property.
Council members discussed options: accept the $30,000 offer and grant an easement, retain the parcel and provide an access easement to the landlocked owner, or lease the land for farming or other uses. No formal motion or vote was recorded in the minutes; the discussion continued as part of ongoing consideration of the parcel’s disposition.
The minutes do not record a decision or timeline for the next steps; councilors asked staff to continue exploring options and to return information at a future meeting.
