Sale of Land at 2452 Kingsway

At a special Council Committee meeting Leld on July 10th, 1980 the Land
Sale Committee recommended that two 30.75 foot wide lots and two 4 foot wide lots
at the above location be sold to the owner of the property located immediately wast
thereof at the price of $4.50 a square foot with the additional requirement that
certain road dedications be made in the area. A map of the area is attached.

It would now be appropriate for the Council to endorse this recommendation
in open meeting in order that the necessary procedures leading to the eventual sale
of the property may be undertaken.

We also take this opportunity to ask Council to consider its advertising
policy with respect to land sales such as this. It has always been our practice to
simply follow the bare provision of the Municipal Act and post the required Notice
of Sale at the City Hall and the Justice Building when Council is dealing with the
owner of adjacent property. Some recent instances of this policy come to mind with
respect to the expansion of the Elgin Medical/Dental Clinic and the recent subdivision
in the Marshall/Warwick Avenue area. The alternative, of course, is to advertise the
availability of the property in the local newspapers.

May we have Council's instructions please; both with respect to the
particular sale of property, and the policy in connection with the advertising of
such sales,
