Bill

This transfers two small parcels of city-owned land near Jefferson Street to a private developer redeveloping properties along 2nd and 3rd Avenues. The slip lanes at the intersections of Junior Gilliam Way with 2nd and 3rd Avenues would be eliminated to improve pedestrian safety, and a small strip of unused right of way along Jefferson Street would also be handed over. In exchange, the developer pays the city $500,000 and agrees to make improvements to nearby sidewalks and road infrastructure.
