� 6. Disposition Plan for 61-63 Second Street
Rod McKay, Director of Community & Economic Development, reviewed the recent
property acquisition of 61-63 Second Street for $1 from the U.S. Department of
Housing and Urban Development. Additional costs totaled $1,534.59 which covered

opportunity to submit a proposal for the City's consideration in order to rehabilitate
the property for residential purposes. Another proposal by Staff is that the City do the
