Missouri Valley council sets July 21 hearing on 500 East Superior conveyance, backs sealed-bid sale for 806 East Erie and approves retail tobacco licenses
Summary
At its June 29 meeting the Missouri Valley City Council set a July 21, 2026 public hearing on conveyance of 500 East Superior Street, discussed selling 806 East Erie Street 'as-is' via sealed bids, approved retail tobacco licenses for Mo's Mini Mart and Eagle Food Mart as part of the consent agenda, and heard updates on local projects before adjourning.
The Missouri Valley City Council on June 29 set a public hearing for July 21, 2026, at 6:00 p.m. to consider the proposed conveyance of city-owned property at 500 East Superior Street and discussed disposition options for another city-owned lot at 806 East Erie Street.
Council Member Struble moved to adopt Resolution No. 26-24 to set the hearing; Council Member Meadows seconded and the roll call vote was unanimous. Minutes note a member of the public inquired about the property; council recorded that the parcel at 500 East Superior Street is a vacant lot following demolition of the previous structure. The hearing will provide an opportunity for public comment on any prospective conveyance.
Separately, council members discussed disposition alternatives for 806 East Erie Street, including the property's condition, marketing approaches, applicable zoning, redevelopment opportunities and potential incentives. The minutes state the council expressed support for selling that property in its current 'as-is' condition through a sealed-bid process; no final sale action was recorded at the meeting.
During the consent agenda, the council approved Retail Tobacco Licenses for Mo's Mini Mart and Eagle Food Mart. The consent motion was moved by Council Member Keizer and seconded by Council Member Meadows; the roll call vote was unanimous.
In Mayor and Council comments the minutes record updates and discussion on several ongoing city projects, including the water main break investigation, the 4th Street project, redevelopment activities at 500 East Erie Street (the minutes reference both 500 East Erie and 500 East Superior in different places), Longview Road, Dean Dewaele Way, a request for additional funding related to an economic development project, future audit considerations, street repairs, and recent improvements to the fire station addition. The City Administrator reported no items. The meeting was adjourned following a motion by Council Member Tuttle, second by Council Member Keizer, and a unanimous roll call vote.
The minutes do not record further specifics about the timeline for property marketing, minimum bid amounts, or any formal offer terms for the properties discussed; those items are expected to be addressed in future agenda packets or at the public hearing set for July 21.
