| | | | | | | | Background:
RECOMMENDATION:
Adopt an ordinance approving and authorizing a Purchase and Sale Agreement between the City of Houston, as Seller, and P. M Investors, Inc., as Buyer, in connection with the sale of two parcels of vacant land at George Bush Intercontinental Airport/Houston (IAH).
SPECIFIC EXPLANATION:
In 2005, the City of Houston, through its Houston Airport System (HAS), purchased two (2) contiguous parcels of land from the previous owners as part of a noise mitigation program. The property is located south of IAH, near the intersection of Beltway 8 and Morales Road.
HAS has determined the properties to be surplus to its needs and canvassed other City departments, but none were interested in acquiring the properties. The properties were subsequently advertised to the general public via bid sale. The successful bidder, P. M. Investors, Inc., submitted a bid in the amount of $215,000.00, which exceeded the minimum bid of $191,000.00 based on appraisal.
HAS requests approval of the Purchase and Sale Agreement for the property sale described below:
