The City-owned property located at 740 Chevis Road (PIN 1-1004-04-022) was previously used as Fire Station #15. The property is currently vacant, as staff have relocated operations to the new Sweetwater location.

The 6.17 acre site is improved with a +/- 1,920 square foot one-story manufactured building (the station house), and a metal building fire apparatus garage.  The City paid $160,000 for the property in 2007.  The current tax roll has the land assessed at $61,800, however staff believes the modular building affixed to the property also carry some value.  The station house features four bedrooms, three bathrooms, living room, kitchen, office, storage room, and mudroom.

Staff is requesting the property be declared surplus and made available for sale or lease, and staff will engage the services of Colliers International – Savannah, a previously approved real estate broker to market the property. Proposals will be evaluated by an interdisciplinary committee of staff, and a recommendation of the highest responsible bidder will be made to City Council for award.
