Resident offers $11,000 to buy town-owned lot next to Desirado Drive home
Summary
At the April 8 Rangely Town Council meeting, resident Andy Craft formally asked to purchase an unused town-owned lot adjacent to his property at 1227 Desirado Drive, offering $11,000 and saying he would combine it with his lot to create roughly 0.35 acres.
Resident Andy Craft told the Rangely Town Council he has maintained a town-owned lot next to his home and wants to buy it to combine with his existing parcel. "I want to make a formal offer of $11,000," Andy Craft said, describing the lot as 7,749 square feet that would give him about 0.35 acres when combined with his current property.
Craft said he has mowed and weeded the lot during the past two years and would like to fence and graveled it to improve its appearance. Council members thanked him for coming forward and said the request would be handled through the town manager and the usual administrative channels. The town clerk noted that discussions about disposition would be coordinated with the new town manager.
Next steps: the council did not take immediate action at the meeting; staff indicated the sale and any valuation or negotiation would be handled between the prospective buyer and town administration.
