Griffith council approves sale of 207 West Main to redevelopment commission
Summary
The Griffith Town Council adopted Resolution 20 26-4 to deed town-owned property at 207 West Main Street to the redevelopment commission for a planned public offering and resale as a development parcel; council approved the resolution by voice vote.
The Griffith Town Council on a voice vote approved Resolution 20 26-4 to transfer town-owned property commonly known as 207 West Main Street to the town’s redevelopment commission, clearing the way for a public offering of the assembled parcels including Andy’s Auto Body.
The resolution, introduced by the speaker who presented the item, authorizes designated signatories to finalize the deed transfer and directs the redevelopment commission to prepare the property for resale and development. “This involves property commonly known as 207 West Main Street, owned by the town,” the presenter said when describing the parcel and the planned public offering.
Council members discussed that the redevelopment commission previously purchased Andy’s Auto Body and that the town’s parcel behind it will be included in a single public offering. The presenter said the commission expects to advertise the offering in local papers and anticipated bids to be open within roughly 45 days, with timing dependent on redevelopment-commission scheduling.
The motion to accept the resolution was made and seconded and carried by voice vote. The council invited anyone interested in the property to consult the town website and local advertisements for details of the upcoming public offering.
Next steps: the redevelopment commission will prepare the public offering and accept bids according to the timeline described by council staff.
