The current assessed value of all four properties in total is $1,112,700. Proposers should provide their best financial offer with their proposal including how the price proposal was arrived at if different from current assessed value. Price is not the only factor in selection, but proposers are encouraged to make the best financial benefit case possible to the city and selection committee.

A site walk will be available on Wednesday February 19, 2014 at 10:00 AM. This will be the only time to enter the property. No private tour requests will be accommodated. Proposers are asked to arrive promptly as the site will close once all visitors have completed their viewing.

The Chief Procurement Officer reserves the right to waive any informality in and to reject any or all bids if it is in the public interest to do so.
