Procedure for sale of surplus real property

Tuscaloosa

Summary

A new ordinance would require the city to post a public Request for Proposals for at least 30 days before selling most surplus property, instead of informal deals where a developer asks the council directly. Exceptions exist for foreclosure auction properties and follow-ups after a failed RFP.
