Item:
Disposition of Excess City -owned Property
1. ACTION REQUESTED:
0
Discuss City Property Analysis Preliminary Results report and provide direction on the
disposition of excess city -owned property.
2. BACKGROUND:
The City of Plymouth has ownership interest or rights to approximately 250 parcels of land
excluding easements and right-of-way. In 2010, staff evaluated all of these parcels to determine
if the parcel has a definite city purpose or if the purpose of the property is uncertain. A map
application was first developed using existing property ownership data from both Hennepin
County and city records that was used to identify those parcels owned by the city or that the city
was the taxpayer of record. Each parcel was evaluated to determine the purpose from a larger
perspective and those that had a questionable purpose were given a unique identifier.
All parcels that were of questionable purpose were further examined to determine the method by
which ownership was obtained and the circumstances under which it was obtained. The
department directors then reviewed every parcel using the information obtained, the mapping
application and other property documentation. The outcome of that review was used to prepare
the attached report. The parcels noted in blue in the report have a confirmed city purpose while
those in yellow have an uncertain city purpose and/or history for city use. Also identified are a
few parcels that were believed to be city -owned or that there were city rights to but ownership
records indicate differently.
Staff is seeking input on the City Property Analysis Preliminary Results report and direction on
the disposition of excess city -owned property identified in the report.
3. BUDGET IMPACT:
There is no immediate budget impact. If the City Council wishes to dispose of excess property,
there could be costs associated with subdividing the property including legal and title work and
plat preparation. Some of the properties may be able to be sold which could result in additional
income for the city.
