Council approves sale of surplus East Young Street lot to nearby property owner
Summary
Council approved sale of a surplus lot on East Young Street to Scott Rasa at an appraised value of $10,000, with buyer obligations for right-of-way and frontage improvements; proceeds go to the general fund.
The council approved Bill No. 07-09-2026, authorizing the Mayor to execute an agreement of sale and related conveyance documents for a city-owned lot on East Young Street. City Manager Schrage said the lot—formerly the site of a lift station—was declared surplus after an inventory of city-owned properties; a professional appraisal valued the lot at $10,000. Prospective buyer Scott Rasa (owner of an adjoining parcel) agreed to perform right-of-way and site improvements, including street widening, curb, sidewalk and guttering to match adjacent properties.
Schrage said the sale aligns with the city’s strategic plan to promote higher-and-better use of property and that sale proceeds will be recorded as miscellaneous revenue in the general fund. The council passed the bill to second reading and adopted it; the ordinance was recorded as No. 6043.
