That the City Council approve the ordinance.

 

Description/History

As staff works on final details involving the sale of approximately 44 acres, known as the “Mushroom Property”, it became evident through discovery and survey processes that some unused easements existed on the property and therefore prior to conveying the property to the Company, it is necessary to abandon and vacate these portions of easement.
