Scope of services includes:

Real Estate

providing assistance with real property transactions concerning disposition and/or development of City lands, including evaluation and advice regarding deal structure and terms, the negotiation and preparation of Development Agreements, Disposition and Development Agreements, Purchase and Sale Agreements, Surplus Land Act disposition, and Ground Leases, and related services as requested by the City
