| | | | | | | | Background:
The property at 11323 E 15th Street S was declared surplus on February 17, 2015 by Ordinance No. 18418 after being reviewed by Independence Power and Light and other departments, determining that said property had no further municipal use. The sale was advertised in February 2015 with a minimum bid price of $4,500 and no bids were received. Since no bids were received, the minimum bid price was lowered to $1,500 by Ordinance No. 18448 and the sale was advertised in June 2015 and again in May 2020. Because no bids were received, staff reached out to the adjacent property owner to gain interest in purchasing the property and came to a mutual agreement with Greater KC Properties, LLC of a sale price of $1,500, which was the minimum established bid price in the June 2015 and May 2020 bid advertisement. |
