Approve letter of intent to sell 82-acre Point Molate development property to tribal group
In Plain English
The city owns 270 acres at Point Molate, a former Navy base. A 2019 lawsuit settlement requires the city to sell 82 developable acres to either a developer or the Federated Indians of Graton Rancheria tribe. If approved, the city gives up its 50% share of sale proceeds but saves up to $400,000 annually on maintenance and security costs.
