Hire property manager for short-term uses at Point Molate

Direct staff to retain professional property management services for Point Molate short term uses

Why This Vote Matters
The council voted with broad support to hire a professional property management company for the city's 270-acre Point Molate site, with only Mayor Thomas K. Butt dissenting. The property manager will handle day-to-day operations like tenant relations, maintenance, and security for any temporary uses while the city develops long-term plans for the waterfront property. This decision allows the city to generate some revenue from the large site without having to assign city staff to manage it directly.
