Shelby council passes ordinance to sell city property, names CIC as agent after executive session
Summary
The council approved Ordinance No. 6, 2026 to sell certain city‑owned real property and designated the Community Improvement Corporation of Shelby, Ohio, Inc. as the city's agent; council suspended the three‑reading rule and approved the ordinance following executive session (vote recorded 5‑0).
The Shelby City Council on May 13 passed Ordinance No. 6, 2026, authorizing the sale of certain city‑owned real property and designating the Community Improvement Corporation of Shelby, Ohio, Inc. as the city’s agent in that sale.
Council moved to suspend the ordinance’s three‑reading requirement and proceeded to consider the ordinance under an emergency declaration. Before final passage the council entered executive session to discuss purchase and sale matters and competitive‑bidding considerations. After returning to open session, the council voted in favor of the ordinance on roll call (recorded 5‑0).
A motion to enter executive session was made by Mr. Martin and seconded by Mr. Roberts; the record shows the council considered property sale strategy and protections for information whose premature disclosure could harm the city’s bargaining position. Following the executive session, council proceeded with the ordinance vote and recorded five yays and no nays.
The ordinance designates the Community Improvement Corporation of Shelby as agent in the property sale; the ordinance text and any related sale terms will be administered in accordance with the city’s established procedures.
