Body

SUMMARY: 

On 11/3/2022, the City declared a 10-foot-wide strip of land located near Rogers Street to be surplus and published Invitation to Bid # 01-23 with DD Gulf to Bay, LLC. being the highest bidder.     

On 11/21/2021, by request of DD Gulf to Bay, LLC, the City vacated its interest in 20 feet of adjacent right of way, which was conditioned upon executing a new utility easement.

All utilities are covered under the newly recorded utility easement.

In conclusion, DD Gulf to Bay, LLC desires to purchase the 10-foot-wide surplus City land, which combined with the adjacent, vacated right of way will amount to 30 additional feet of property for redevelopment.
