    City of Seattle Edward B. Murray, Mayor Finance and Administrative Services Fred Podesta, Director July 25, 2016 The Honorable Tim Burgess Seattle City Hall 501 5th Ave. Seattle, WA 98124 Councilmember Burgess, Attached is an annual report of all real property under City ownership. The annual review supports strategic management of the City’s real estate holdings. Because City needs change over time, the annual review helps create opportunities to find the best municipal use of each property or put it back into the private sector to avoid holding properties without an adopted municipal purpose. Each January, FAS initiates the annual review process. City departments with jurisdiction over real property assure that all recent acquisitions and/or dispositions are accurately represented, and provide current information about each property’s current use, and future use, if identified. Each property is classified based on its level of utilization -- from Fully Utilized Municipal Use to Surplus. In addition, in 2015 and 2016, in conjunction with CBO, OPI, and OH, FAS has been reviewing properties with the HALA recommendation on using surplus property for housing. The attached list has a new column that groups excess, surplus, underutilized and interim use properties into categories to help differentiate the potential for various sites. Below is a matrix which explains the categorization: Category Description Difficult building site Small, steep and/or irregular parcels with limited development opportunity Future Use Identified use in the future

Through a case study methodology, the food systems and recent advances in the cities of Seattle, Los Angeles, and New York City were analyzed to provide information that Orlando could utilize to improve its food system. The study also served to connect local food systems to the larger vision of sustainability in our built environment by showing how certain practices build community, foster education and enhance our urban environments.

The Annual Property Report supports strategic management of the City’s real estate holdings. Each January, FAS’ Real Estate Services Division initiates the annual review process with all City departments with jurisdiction over real property to ensure that all acquisitions, transfers and dispositions are accurately represented and logged in a central database. Departments validate and provide information about each property’s current use and future use, if known. Each property is classified based on its level of utilization – from fully utilized municipal use to excess property available for re-use as affordable housing or transfer to another department. A list of definitions of classification codes and categories is included as an attachment. Additionally, we have attached a 2021 Highlights piece to summarize the most significant trends and changes for each department over the past year. If you have questions about the report, please contact FAS’ Division Director of Real Estate Services, Karen Gruen, at 206-733-9238. Sincerely, Calvin W.
