Kettering Council approves purchase of 2600 Wilmington Pike and sale of 3 acres to support Wilmington Pike improvements
Summary
Council authorized acquisition of the former SixA facility at 2600 Wilmington Pike for $65,000 and the sale of roughly 3 acres of city land along East David Road, with proceeds from the sale credited to the EMS fund, a move staff says advances the Wilmington Pike improvement plan.
The Kettering City Council voted July 22 to authorize a real-estate transaction that will add the property at 2600 Wilmington Pike to the city’s holdings and to sell about three acres of city‑owned land along East David Road.
Staff described the transaction as part of the Wilmington Pike improvement plan and said it advances redevelopment on a high‑visibility parcel. The resolution authorizes purchase of the former SixA facility at 2600 Wilmington Pike for $65,000 and the sale of three acres at David Road and Hempstead Station; staff said the land sale proceeds of $255,000 will be credited back to the city’s Emergency Medical Services (EMS) fund. City staff characterized the combined transactions as supporting economic development objectives along Wilmington Pike.
Mayor Laner announced he would excuse himself for the council’s consideration of this item; staff proceeded to present the measure and members present voted to approve the transaction. Staff told the council that the net fiscal impact on city funds will reflect prior council commitments to economic development and that the purchase will be recorded at the gross amount of $65,000.
Council approved the resolution by roll call. Staff said the transactions set the stage for future development and will return sale proceeds to the EMS fund as noted.
