Board discusses options for South Cloverdale parcel: sell, lease, develop or retain for CTE/fields
Summary
Trustees reopened discussion about the South Cloverdale parcel and asked staff to research market value, leasing options and costs. Selling surplus public property was described as a lengthy process that could take roughly 18 months to two years.
Board members revisited long-running discussions about the South Cloverdale parcel, asking for direction on whether to pursue sale, lease, development for athletics or CTE programming, or to hold the land and invest in mitigation and maintenance.
Trustees outlined the practical constraints of disposing of public property: surplus-asset sales require statutory processes and public-notice periods that make the timeline lengthy (board discussion estimated 18 months to two years from decision to sale). Some trustees advocated starting the process now if selling is a potential outcome; others emphasized the parcel's potential future use for CTE programs and fields and urged caution about permanently losing the site.
Trustees asked staff to return with current market-value estimates, an outline of costs and timelines to pursue surplus-property sale, and options for interim leasing or site management if the board delays a final decision.
