Overview: The Town Council continues to consider the long-term land use and remediation options for the Police Station property, located at 828 Martin Luther King Jr Blvd. The latest option includes the Town entering into the North Carolina Brownfields Program and partnering with Belmont Sayre, a local developer, to create a mixed-use redevelopment of the property that could include a new Municipal Services Center, retail, and housing. As part of this process, the Town continues to work with environmental consulting services firm, Hart & Hickman, to complete an updated Human Health and Ecological Risk Assessment. This assessment will help the Town to better understand risk under the current land use scenario and possible future redevelopment scenarios. See the attached presentation, executive summary, and full report for findings and details.

 

Recommendation(s):

That the Council receive the attached presentation and report and continue to provide guidance, as needed.

 

Fiscal Impact/Resources: The cost of the updated risk assessment was $28,700. Additional fiscal impacts will be discussed as part of other items related to the potential future land uses and remediation options for the property.
