The Lot is a standard size lot (50' x 140'); therefore, permitted for residential development. I explained to Ms. Bodin that the City sometimes conveys property to the Housing Authority or its CHODO for residential development. She stated that she understood and did not oppose this use. The City Manager and I conducted a site visit of the proposed site, and the Manager is interested in accepting the said gift if it is free and clear of all liens or other legal hindrances. Per our discussion today, please proceed with obtaining a title report/insurance on said property. If the report provides sufficient information indicating there are no concerns with the land, the City Manager would like to move forward with accepting the conveyance. If you have questions or comments for the property owner, Ms. Bodin may be reached at (409) 289-1098. Her husband is deceased (Robert L. Bodin), and she is the executor of his estate.
