The City of Central Point acquired an approximately 7.41-acre parcel of land located on Old Military Road in 1970, commonly referred to as Map No. 372W08, Tax Lot 1900 (the “Property”). The Property is zoned County Aggregate Resource. B. The City purchased the land for use by the Public Works Department to be used as a site to move extra material such as rock, dirt and tree trimmings, as the City did not have an alternative location in town at that time. Over time use of the Property for extra mat erials has become unnecessary as the City is now able to dispose of such items through recycling and other methods. C. The Property was also used as a storm drain decanting facility. However, with the construction of the new Public Works Operations Center such use was no longer necessary. In addition, the City has as two additional decanting sites closer to town. D. The City has no other reasonable use for the Property. E. ORS 271.310 authorizes the City to sell real property whenever it is not needed for public use or when the public interest may be furthered by such conveyance. F. On June 10, 2021, the City Council held a public hearing determining that the Property is not needed for public use and it is in the public interest to sell property and adopted Resolution No. 1670 authorizing the sale of the property through invitation to bid. G. The City accepted a bid to purchase the property, but ultimately the sale did not close and no further offers to bid were received by the city. H. City staff has heard from an interested party and now seeks authorization to sell the property via fixed price sale, pursuant to CPMC 2.40.120.5. The City of Central Point resolves as follows: Section 1. The City Council directs staff to sell the Property via a Fixed Price Sale and advertise the sale on the City’s website to be sold to the first person making an offer meeting the following minimum conditions in the offer to purchase the Property : A.
