What the Office Does
This office manages real estate matters for the City of Fredville, including:
- Buying the rights-of-way and easements needed for city projects
- Buying land for new city facilities and parks
- Selling city-owned real property the city no longer needs
- Selling tax-foreclosed properties that were struck off to the city after a tax sale (see the current bid solicitation for these properties)
- Abandoning city rights-of-way, including streets and alleys, and city easements. An easement reserved for one franchised utility, such as electric or natural gas service, has to be released through that utility instead.
- Issuing licenses and access permits that allow private parties to use city property
