1. Does the Land Management Process negate Section 140 of the City Charter? (requires a vote of the people to sell land)

NO. Section 140 of the City Charter requires a vote at a general election for any city land sales for parcels over an acre in size. Adding a parcel to the Land Management List is still subject to the requirements of the City Charter and all other City Ordinances and related state or federal laws. 

2. When can parcels be added to the Land Management List?

According to City Ordinance, the period for accepting applications/nominations for parcels is September 1st through September 30th. (see section 9-2-2-A of the City Code)

3. Can parcels be added outside the normal application process?

Yes.  At the discretion of the City Council, an applicant could request City consideration outside the September time frame.  All other steps included in the Land Management Process (e.g. notice, Planning Commission consideration) would be required.
