The city wanted to retain this parcel for a well, but did not use the <br />parcel for that purpose. <br />An abutting landowner has inquired about purchase of that parcel. In order to <br />make that property available for private purchase, the city must reconvey the <br />land back to the State of Minnesota. Once that is complete the County will notify <br />surrounding landowners and offer it at a private sale. <br />0 The city charter requires that disposal of any city property shall be done by <br />ordinance. <br />OPTIONS: <br />1. Approve the Reading of Ordinance 12 -06 reconveying the parcel back to <br />the State of Minnesota <br />2. Do not approve the ordinance <br />3. Return to staff for further consideration <br />RECOMMENDATION: <br />Option 1 <br />• <br />
