Summary

Council voted to authorize appraisal for a city-owned vacant lot at 304 Circle Drive next to an apartment property after a resident inquired about purchase; motion carried and staff will arrange appraisal.

Council considered an inquiry from a private resident interested in purchasing the city-owned lot at 304 Circle Drive (adjacent to Bud Peterson’s home) with the intent to build garage space for nearby apartments. Staff (Speaker 5) said the interested party is aware of drainage issues at the site and that the city would need an appraisal before sale; Speaker 3 moved to get the property appraised and the motion carried.

Council members discussed concerns about drainage, slope and potential impacts on neighboring properties in heavy rain or winter freeze conditions, and staff said any sale would include appropriate disclosures and that the buyer would need to address drainage. Council directed staff to arrange an appraisal and report back.
