The Mission City Council voted on March 20, 2026, to authorize proceeding with an offer in the amount of $60,000 for the acquisition of 651 West 2nd Street, Lot 12, Outlot 5, Subdivided, Mission City, for use as a municipal liquor store. The council motion recorded in the minutes states: "Motion by Moran IV, seconded by Garriot, to approve and proceed with an offer in the amount of $60,000 for the acquisition of 651 West 2nd Street, Lot 12, Outlot 5, Subdivided, Mission City, for use as a municipal liquor store. The offer shall allow the property owner to remove windows and doors from the current structure, with the City to assume all costs associated with acquisition documentation. Motion carried." The minutes do not show a numerical vote tally or identify the property owner.
Council discussion that followed referenced both the tax equalization item and the proposed acquisition but did not add alternate dollar amounts, financing sources, or a timetable for closing in the recorded minutes. The action authorizes staff to proceed with making the offer and to handle acquisition documentation costs, but the minutes do not specify which city department will manage the acquisition or a timeline for completion.
