President Richard Warren Page 2 of 2 February 13, 2012, La Porte Development Corporation Board Minutes REQUEST FOR LA PORTE ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT CORPORATION AGENDA ITEM Agenda Date Requested: February 27, 2012 Requested By: Traci Teach Department: Administration Report: X Resolution: Ordinance: Exhibits: Power Point Presentation Exhibits: Exhibits: Appropriation Source of Funds: N/A Account Number: Amount Budgeted: Amount Requested: Budgeted Item: YES NO SUMMARY & RECOMMENDATION In November 2011, the City held a public bid for the property at 912 W. Main and the bids received were substantially below the fair market value of the property. All bids were subsequently rejected by the Economic Development Corporation and the Council in December 2011. In order to obtain the most beneficial proposal for both the EDC and the City for this property and the adjacent property at 908 W. Main, staff has been conducting a due diligence evaluation and research on an alternative method to dispose of city owned property, pursuant to Chapter 272.001 of the Local Government Code. This proposal, which includes a simultaneous closing between the City, Economic Development Corporation, and a prospective end user, would allow the City to conduct a more traditional real estate transaction and identify and negotiate with prospects that would bring the most benefit to the City in terms of sales price. Staff will be briefing the City Council later this evening. No action is required at this point from either Council or the EDC Board. This briefing is intended to be informational and allow both Council and EDC an opportunity to ask questions. Should EDC approve moving forward with the simultaneous closing method, staff will move forward to develop the required contracts and documentation for formal consideration once an end user is identified. Action Required by Economic Development Board: Provide direction to staff on whether to move forward with the simultaneous closing method for the disposition of real property owned by the City.
