Summary

Council gave the mayor authority to execute documents necessary to close on the purchase of 1333 Lloyd Parkway, a property with office and workshop space the city intends to use for public-works operations.

The Port Orchard City Council authorized the mayor to execute the documents needed to close on the purchase of real property at 1333 Lloyd Parkway, staff said, a parcel the city identified for acquisition to expand public-works facilities and operations.

Staff reminded the council that the council previously authorized a purchase-and-sale agreement for the property and that the parcel includes an office building and a workshop. Staff said acquiring the built property would meet current and anticipated operational needs for the public works department and could come at a significant cost savings compared with constructing a new facility.

During the meeting the mayor clarified that the council had not waived contingencies tied to the purchase and that remaining contingencies were still being resolved; authorization would permit the mayor to close if the contingency period expires and outstanding conditions are satisfied. Staff said they expected to be nearly finished with contingency work and that closing could occur by Oct. 1 if all contingencies are met to the city’s satisfaction.

Councilmembers praised staff diligence in identifying and securing the opportunity and noted the acquisition would expand the city’s capacity with minimal additional capital construction. The motion to authorize the mayor to execute closing documents passed on the council floor.
