Sale of 1218 College Avenue and 2151 E 11th Street
Summary
Two large vacant city parcels totaling about 37 acres were up for sale through CBRE, but commissioners tabled the sale to a workshop, frustrated that the item keeps reappearing without an overall plan — and with questions about stormwater, warehousing potential and who initiated the listing.

Impact analysis
A sale through CBRE could bring significant revenue, but commissioners fear underselling land held for decades — in one case since 1938.
A buyer or developer would gain large developable tracts; taxpayers could gain sale proceeds if sold right.
Commissioner Street warned the land may be needed as regional stormwater; losing it could cost the area a watershed buffer.
