CONSIDERATION OF ACOUISITION OF PROPERTY UNDER EDA SCATTERED
SITE PROGRAM
The Community Development Specialist explained there are two properties under
consideration for acquisition. He showed slides of both properties and said he would like
the option of an appraisal to establish the value of the property at 5900 Emerson.
Commissioner Scott recommended the one on Brooklyn Boulevard be pursued and asked
if the one on Emerson had a lot too small to be rebuildable.
The Planning and Zoning Specialist said it is a legal lot size and could be built upon. He
said because it is on a corner, setbacks affect the appearance of the size of the lot.
