SUMMARY AND RECOMMENDATION
In 2010 the City Council approved the sale of surplus property located adjacent to Sens Road, to ChemCoast, Inc.,
which was the high bidder. ChemCoast, Inc. subsequently requested the issuance of a title policy in connection with
its purchase, to be paid for by ChemCoast, Inc. (along with all other closing costs). American Title Co., which is
closing the sale, has asked that the city to adopt a form of "corporate resolution in recordable form to support the
proposed transaction", as noted in Schedule C of the title commitment.
The City Attorney's office has drafted a proposed ordinance authorizing the conveyance, to meet the requirements
of the title company.
