Agenda Item 
IV. F. Potential Acquisition of Downtown Property for Parking and Garbage Dumpster 
Consolidation  
 
Overview 
It is a well-known fact that the downtown area needs additional parking . Vacant property 
adjacent to Market Park appears to be available and would be a perfect site for additional parking 
as well as a site to consolidate the city ’s downtown garbage dumpsters. A map and additional 
information of the 8,500+/- square foot property that is zoned B-2 (Central Business District) is 
attached. If approved to move forward with acqui sition, an appra isal and environmental 
assessment would be needed to determine fair market value. Once a value has been determined, 
approach the property owner with an offer. This item is not budgeted but funds would come 
from the Capital Improvement Fund. 
 
Action to Consider 
Consensus is needed to move this item to the August 19, 2025 regular session for consideration.
