Executive Director Michael McCauley discussed this resolution would authorize the sale of the EDA
owned property at 5900 Emerson Avenue North and 5912 Camden Avenue North. The proposals
solicited will be for single family homes and will need to have prices established with the plans
submitted. The minimum purchase price for the lots is $35,000 for 5900 Emerson Avenue North and
$40,000 for 5912 Camden Avenue North in the materials. Staff will use these prices as the prices for
