be to have the package ready for re -bid.
Joe Samer said it could be ready to advertise Monday, July 16, 2007. It needs to be
published for two weeks. Joe recommends advertising in five locations and to stay
with the reduced scope of the project. The bids could be opened August 2, 2007

5. OTHER — CONSIDERATION OF SALE OF CITY OWNED PROPERTY
Lindley Kirkpatrick called Chris Gabbert for a conference call with the board
concerning the possible sale of two city owned parcels. Chris Gabbert explained
that Idaho Code addresses the selling of city owned property under two different
code sections.
The determination needs to be made whether or not these properties are tied to the
Urban Renewal Agency Agenda or not. Assessment must be made of each
property and an appraisal would need to be done.
Specifics of each property would need to be forwarded to Chris (his
recommendation) and he could help with guiding the City of McCall with this
decision.
The consideration of this sale is to add to the budget for the Legacy Park Project.
Discussion continued concerning the vacation process necessary to abandon an
alley that is also city owned.
Decision's will made at a future Urban Renewal Agency Meeting.
