Summary

The Public Works Committee approved transferring 157 Montezuma Street in Lyons to the Wayne County Land Bank for $10,000; Land Bank Director Kaleigh Flynn told the committee the Land Bank has funds to address immediate repairs and prefers control to prevent neglect.

The Public Works Committee on June 3 approved transferring the property at 157 Montezuma Street in Lyons to the Wayne County Land Bank for $10,000.

Kaleigh Flynn, Land Bank Director, told the committee that the Land Bank "is comfortable with the proposed $10,000 expenditure and has sufficient funds available to address any immediate work that needs to be completed." Kevin Rooney said selling the property at auction could yield a higher price but might reduce the county's and Land Bank's ability to ensure the building is properly maintained and put to productive use. The resolution was approved 5-0.

The transfer gives the Land Bank authority to address immediate maintenance to avoid the property becoming neglected or underutilized.
