housing development marketing
Plans to market city-owned vacant lot for future neighborhood housing.
Whether Weichert recommends changing Sandy Bay lot prices in February 2026 and whether any developer talks turn into a specific proposal that needs formal votes.
Typically discussed at Business and Industrial Development Committee - Community Development Authority. Check back when the next agenda is published.
The city’s housing push is split between two tracks: Sandy Bay lot sales and a city-owned site at 18th Street and Hawthorne Avenue being lined up for multi-family housing. On Sandy Bay, the CDA is leaning on Weichert to reassess lot prices and report back in February 2026, while staff keeps talking with developers about possible multi-family projects and future land buys.
