Council approves purchase of 22025 Lockall as part of parcel assembly strategy
Summary
The council authorized buying 22025 Lockall for $67,500 to continue a long‑term redevelopment strategy for a stretch of Lockall between Granhamac and Harper; demolition is estimated at $10,000–$12,000 and funding will come from general fund contingency/fund balance.
The council approved acquiring 22025 Lockall for $67,500 as part of a long‑term strategy to assemble parcels along Lockall between Granhamac and Harper for future redevelopment.
City staff said the property is assessed at $85,000 but contains a gutted structure with negative value that will require demolition, estimated at $10,000–$12,000. Staff recommended using general fund balance and contingencies for purchase and initial demolition, with a potential budget amendment later in the fiscal year.
Council members discussed environmental checks for asbestos/abatement and noted the purchase fits a multi‑year effort to assemble key parcels for future development options including condominiums or other uses. Council moved to approve the purchase; the motion passed 6–1.
