Request full ordinance text and first reading record for land sale

Context: The record contains only two appearances for this item — a second reading on 2026-01-20 and adoption of Ordinance 019838 on 2026-02-03 — with no governing conveyance conditions stated in the supplied text.

Recommended: The supplied record shows a second reading on January 20 and adoption on February 3, but no first reading appearance — obtain the complete signed ordinance and the earlier reading record to confirm the reading sequence and to see whether the conveyance carries reverter, use, or performance conditions on the buyer. Those terms govern any later dispute over the property and are much harder to reconstruct after closing documents are recorded.

Check remaining city land in Block 15, Mills Map Addition

Context: Ordinance 019838, adopted 6-0 on 2026-02-03, conveys only Lot E and a portion of Lot F, Block 15, Mills Map Addition, to Romity Ventures, LLC.

Recommended: The city conveyed only Lot E and a portion of Lot F in Block 15, meaning the balance of Lot F may still sit in public ownership — pull the current ownership record for the remainder and the survey that defined the split before the new owner's plans harden. If you wait until the buyer designs around the full block, an assemblage or shared-access deal becomes far harder to negotiate.

As of Feb 2026

Ask how buyer of Mills Map Addition city land was chosen

Context: The item passed 6-0 as Item 25 on 2026-02-03 on a motion by Representative Canales seconded by Representative Maldonado-Rocha, with no supporting valuation or selection record in the file.

Recommended: Ask the city for the appraisal, the solicitation or marketing file, and any competing offers for the Block 15 parcels, plus the ownership filing identifying the principals of Romity Ventures, LLC. The public record shows a unanimous vote with no recorded discussion across both appearances, so nothing in it explains how this buyer or this price was arrived at.
